That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Eating raw cookie dough may be dangerous because it may contain raw eggs. Raw eggs can potentially be contaminated with salmonella, a type of bacteria that can cause food poisoning. Cooking the dough kills the bacteria and makes it safe to consume. Therefore, consuming raw cookie dough increases the risk of getting sick from salmonella poisoning.
