What are the statistics of someone getting sick from consuming raw eggs?
And exactly who did it happen to and what was the outcome? That means names and documented information.
Raw Egg
Getting sick form consuming raw eggs is one of the most misstated pieces of information on the planet.
Your more likely to be hurt in a car accident that consuiing a raw eggs.

My dad's been eating raw eggs for longer then I can remember and he's fine so I say good
The problem usually occurs when an individual has a compromised immune system. The same BS has been said about eating pink pork for years (the FDA no longer believes this to be true). If you are a relatively healthy person with a strong immune system you will be just fine.

It all depends on how the chickens are raised. I remember seeing an episode of "No Reservations" and they ate raw chicken while in china I believe.
You flood the animals with pesticides and hormones and you create the problem. Also, people are too damn scared and tend to forget why we have an immune system.....

I raise my own chickens, so I have an unending egg supply. I know what they eat for the most part (aside from the bugs and worms they dig up LOL) We eat lots of eggs! I used to eat raw eggs when I was a teen and they never seemed to bother me then, but that was 20+ years ago.
Salmonella is the one main concern I had. However we're the ones raising them, but you never know. Just being cautious and wanted other's opinions!
Thanks!

That is the main reason I do not eat meat. Our food supply in this country is suspect.

I have heard that about small farmers. Much cleaner.
Bacteria living on the outer fibers is one reason why ground meat is treated with ammonia to make ir sanitary.
Sorry if I'm getting off topic. I don't take chances with my food. No meat and no raw eggs.

This is pretty much my point as well. Why take a chance.

Because it is a necessary evil.
car stats: 2010- 130 people died in a car daily
Gun stats: 2010- 37 people died as a result of a gun daily.
See, cars are always the more dangerous option. Of the 300 million people in this country, how many drive cars? Of course more people will die from that. We still drive.
How many of the 300 million eat raw eggs? Not really a fair comparison.
If 80% drive and only 3% eat raw eggs how can you compare that?
I'm not saying don't eat raw eggs, I just wouldn't do it. It is also not fair to compare which is more dangerous cars or eggs. Totally different percentages.

RAW EGGS ARE BAD AND NOT BECAUSE OF SALMONELLA

So yeah, raw eggs are bad because not only is the absorption rate of their protein low, but the ovomucoids in them will actually inhibit OTHER protein eaten at the same time from being broken down and absorbed.
Some light reading on the subject:
Trypsin inhibitor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cooking renders the ovomucoids inert, so cooked eggs aren't bad, however I'm of the firm belief that animal meats are a better source of protein than eggs (although eggs do provide a nice source of vitamins and minerals... everything a growing body needs... especially if you're a baby chicken).

Life's not fair.
Compare the percengates.
Salmonella in Eggs - Weighing up the risks
In 2001 (the most current collection data available at the CDC), only 11.3 cases were found per 100,000 people. That is a percentage risk of only 0.0113%

Not to get off subject, but animal proteins take longer to break down than other sources. Plus, I personally do not eat them so eggs are my friend. I know those that eat raw fish but I wouldn't eat that either.

@ Kenny, it's nice to argue a point with a person that is intellectual enough to use facts. Thanks for not being an idiot. But, I still refuse to eat raw eggs. Just like the large majority of people on this thread advocate a diet rich in animal protein and I do not. As long as it works for you, do it. I know that is my approach.
I do not encourage raw food consumption unless it is raw veggies. Personal preference. I am certainly not going to stop someone from eating what they want unless it is bad for them. (Burgers, fries and so on)

They're absolutely horrible for a bodybuilder, and it's not because of salmonella.
The protein in cooked eggs is MUCH more available to be used by the body - whereas most of the protein in raw eggs can't be used! So cook them if you care about getting protein. Google "raw cooked eggs bioavailability protein" and you'll get all the studies you need.

Good.
A misconception regarding raw egg protein digestibility still remains in the minds of some people. At first there was a common myth that raw eggs were not suitable to eat because of health concerns, but subsequent and recent studies have proved that eating raw egg protein is much more digestible and prone to cause way less allergic reactions than eating a cooked egg. However, if the thought of eating a raw egg makes you queasy you can turn to a liquid protein supplement instead.
Addressing the fear of salmonella contamination, it is important to understand where the fear comes from. Some eggs are contaminated with salmonella, but the cause comes from a chicken that is unhealthy. It is also important to mention that the average infected egg is only one in 30,000. Even though the odds of eating an infected egg in your lifetime is relatively small, if you eat eggs that come from healthy, cage free chickens who are feed a healthy organic diet the odds are almost removed.
Another factor to understand is the nature of egg yolks. In a raw state the egg yolk contain more biotin than when it is cooked and the biotin acts as a defensive against any contamination. Egg yolks have one of the highest concentrations of biotin found in nature. So it is likely that you will not have a biotin deficiency if you consume the whole raw egg, yolk and white. If you are hesitate about eating raw eggs, try a little raw egg at a time to test your body's reaction. By introducing a little at a time your body will most likely adjust. An excellent way to add raw eggs to your diet is in healthy diet shakes and to aid in raw egg protein digestibility. They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, perhaps we should also say a raw egg a day will give you energy to play!

Drank raw eggs probably soon after I got home from seeing "Rocky" on the big screen. What was that, 1976?

Not dead yet.
Okay, 1/30,000 sounds pretty remote. But playing with the numbers a bit, and taking into account that I barely passed my university statistics courses
... if a person eats 8 eggs a day that's 3000 eggs a year give or take. So they'll hit that 30k mark in 10 years. Put another way, they'll have a 50% chance of hitting an infected egg in 5 years. Twenty percent in 2 years, etc. Maybe not so remote? Again, statistical analysis was never my strong point, but isn't that one (more alarming) way to look at it?Kenny Croxdale

What is really remote is someone consuming 8 eggs a day for 10 years.
Who eat or would eat 8 eggs a day for 10 years? How much sense does that make?
