Hey, i tried searching through the forum and on google, and couldnt find any solid facts. So im here to ask.
Does anyone know if drinking egg beaters raw, out of the carton is fine. I dont really like eggs, but i want the protein, and its cheap.
Thanks

This has been covered before. Salmonella is outside the egg, on the eggshell, so if you simply run hot water over it, it should be safe. You get poisoning if what you eat comes into contact with the eggshell (if the bacteria are there).
Also, I've read several times that egg protein is more bioavailable when it's cooked. Something like 70% bioavailability when raw, 97% when cooked. Of course, you lose some nutrients when you cook anything, but if you're going for protein, cook it.Never waste an egg yolk

In my opinion, you should be eating whole eggs. There's nothing dangerous about egg yolks, and plenty that's beneficial. Of course, that's been covered a bunch of times too.
