Government tells Americans to stop eating cookie dough

[DriftingSand]

Few things better than raw cookie dough! I buy the stuff off of the Schwan's Food truck. Delicious. I don't live on cookie dough and don't eat it often but I've been a fan of raw cookie dough since I was a itty bitty kid and have never suffered any ill-consequences.

Next thing you know, it will be illegal to buy raw milk!

As it should be. Jesus, do you people understand nothing of biology at all?

drank raw milk for a good ten years.....never had any problems....

My great aunt and uncle had a dairy farm. The only milk they used was raw. When I visited, that's what they fed me.

Milk, by design, is to grow a 1,000 lb cow.

What do expect when you lie? You're the one that turned a recommendation into an order. You made your bed, don't cry about it now.

SNIP:
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued an order that millions of Americans will likely find impossible to carry out: stop eating raw cookie dough.
“Avoid raw or partially cooked eggs or foods containing raw eggs, such as cookie dough,”

USDA advised in an email over the weekend.

Mission: Impossible — The government has said people need to stop eating cookie dough.

Carrying out that simple 15-word recommendation would radically change millions of lives, from families who routinely bake cookies and invite the kids to scoop batter out of the bowl, to people who scarf down pre-packaged cookie dough, to everyone who eats cookie dough found in ice cream.

Simply put, it’s not immediately clear that America is ready to take on USDA’s mission. But it’s also unclear if it’s necessary — there is something of a debate over whether it’s safe to eat cookie dough, or whether the risk of getting salmonella from raw eggs is too high.
Some, likeFoodBeast.com, say it’s “actually really hard to get salmonella from eggs.” The site has an article up noting that bakers routinely eat batter and never get sick, and say the trick is in making sure the eggs are refrigerated.

And cookie dough found in ice cream is pasteurized, making it safe to eat, according to various online food experts.

But many still note the danger, and the 2009 recall of raw dough from Nestle that got dozens of people sick from E. coli. A Las Vegas motherdied in 2013of E. coli after eating raw cookie dough.

EatRight.Org, a group of food and nutritional professionals, sides with USDA, and says people must “resist the cookie dough temptation.”

AAAAHH Duh Gubmint issued an advisory!! Aieeee, POLICE STATE!

Let's face it, if the gubmint advised "Don't pour sulfuric acid on your genitals" some Randbot would object.
It's what Randbots do.

Yeah, those silly cons!

I mean, they think that advice coming from a government that has the power to make laws, imprison people, and even kill might be more than just a suggestion. Absurd, right? If only they worshipped government like more enlightened chaps like yourself, they would see nothing bad could come from government agencies giving "advise".

That's correct. You got one right. It is absurd, like this whole tread which started with a child screaming You Aren't The Boss Of Me like any other toddler told it was bedtime.

You actually don't know we have a format for making laws?

This just in -- NOAA weather advisories (duh Gumbint) actually do not mean it's illegal to go out in the storm. Who knew. State Department advisories against traveling to Liberia are not "laws" against it. Who knew. FDA guidelines on health and nutrition are not legally binding, even if your colon is. Who knew.

Oh wait -- everybody.

In addition to being the least intelligent person here, Staph is the most likely to accuse others of being hateful and nasty.....moments before or moments after spewing hate and nastiness.

True story.

then she is no different then many others here LL.....on both sides......

Sure.....lots of people do that shit. Doesn't make it a good thing to do.

never said it was....but that seems to be the way things are "discussed" around here.....

 

[Harry Dresden]

the hate from the left doesn't even stop for the Holidays. Isn't it something to behold?

ugly people in this country and a few are on this board. that's just sad and they don't care that they advertise it for all to see

Maybe if you'd learn to conduct yourself like something less than the most repugnant person on the planet, you wouldn't inspire so much hatred,

you awful awful awful person.

you should talk carbine....you dont say shit when your good buddies dean and guno,two other rather "repugnant" people, post some of the shit they post....

You mean because they're a prescribed process for making laws, the government can never make laws in its own interest and not in the interest of the people? NDAA anyone? "Patriot" act?

HA! Fox News Falls For Satire Of Obama Banning Doughnut Sprinkles (VIDEO)

December 30, 2014Dan Simpson Politics0


It’s often been said that instead of being a reputable source for news, Fox News instead comes closer to emulating a televised version of The Onion, the well-known satire news source.


Fox more than lived up to that billing on Tuesday morning’s episode of Fox & Friends when the hosts of the program apparently cited a conservative satire news outlet as the basis for their bizarre choice of topic, lowering the collective IQ of their viewers even further.


It all started when Fox & Friends host Clayton Morris warned the audience that they would have to “say goodbye to your favorite sprinkled doughnut.”


Morris held up a plate of palatable doughnuts and said, “They’re getting rid of doughnuts like these. Doesn’t the FDA have more important things to do than regulate sprinkles?”


It’s Sprinkle-ghazi! The newest Fox News conspiracy theory!


The problem is there is arguably even less of a basis for this conspiracy theory than any of Fox’s other manufactured crises. It seems that the The Arizona Conservative, a blog that seems completely legit at first glance, published an article on December 28th with the headline, GOP to Become Party of ‘Yes’.


Scroll down a little ways in the article, and we see a sub-headline, “FDA to Announce Ban on Sprinkles”. Here is the article:


“Though the amount of trans fats in the sprinkles that are used to adorn donuts and ice cream cones is extremely low, the Food and Drug Administration is determined to eliminate these items from the food chain.


There is no good reason why anyone should consume these non-nutritional pollutants in our food supply,” said FDA nutrition expert Harley Sain. “The donuts and ice cream cones where sprinkles are usually found are bad enough on their own without this worthless addition.”


Sain admitted that “if it were totally up to me, we’d be banning the donuts and ice cream, too. No one needs to eat these to survive. The world would be healthier without them. Removing them from the diet is more of a long-term goal. We need to move in increments that won’t stir up too much opposition. As people gradually become more accustomed to greater government control over what they are allowed eat we can take larger strides toward a perfectly calibrated diet for all.”


In the meantime, “if the lack of sprinkles deters only one person from consuming a donut or ice cream cone, well, that’s a fringe benefit that no one could reasonably oppose,” Sain added.
