Nestle Cookie Dough Recall
Today, a stunned America learned that Nestle USA issued recalls for its cookie dough. Read more about the recalls and see photos and video here.
After just eating more than half a package of raw Nestle Toll House cookie dough, something struck me—is it really dangerous to eat raw cookie dough? So I searched the web, and BOOM! I was smacked with headlines, like this one: Nestle Recalls Refrigerated Cookie Dough Products. And why? Because of a possible E. Coli problem!
If this is my last post, at least I’ll have written it with the awesomeness that is raw cookie dough flavor in my mouth. I can’t force myself to throw up just because of these recalls, after all I spent my childhood chewing on plastic toys straight out of Hong Kong, and I’m still here with only minor side-effects.
But this Nestle USA cookie dough recall can’t be anti-Chinese propaganda. After all, a warning from the US Food and Drug Administration prompted the cookie dough recall— and they’re always right.
This cookie dough recall hits where it really hurts. Worse yet, the risk of E. Coli is most deleterious to, among others, the elderly and pregnant women. The elderly must love it—it doesn’t require much chewing. And pregnant women probably just ball it up into a softball size clump, roll it in crushed M&M’s and eat it like a giant apple.
What is the most obese society in the world to do? I think something just moved in my stomach.
In all seriousness, any recall issued shouldn’t be taken lightly. If you have purchased any Nestle Toll House cookie dough, throw it away, and do not consume it. If you have eaten any lately, and show any symptoms of E. Coli (bloody loose bowel, vomiting, stomach cramps, and fever) you should go get checked out.
