#Bakebeforeyoubite⠀ ⠀ It’s peak holiday baking season, and raw cookie dough may be tempting, but it can make you sick. Raw eggs carry salmonella, and uncooked flour can carry germs like E. coli. So remember – Bake Before you Bite!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #snhd #publichealth #happyholidays #healthyholidays #foodsafety #safefoodhandling
