In 2015, Cookie Monster filmed a viral video titled “Simply Delicious Shower Thoughts with Cookie Monster” for the Mashable YouTube channel. In the video, he explores various New York City museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim, while pondering deep “shower thoughts” about food.
Explain the cookie dough to me please. That one doesn’t make sense to me
Sushi is raw fish. Cookie dough is raw cookie. And some people eat raw cookie dough as a thing; there are cookie-dough ice cream flavors, for example.
Sushi is not raw fish. Sushi is vinegared rice.
Correct. If anything, cookie dough would be sashimi.
I know about the ice cream, I’ve had it before. I never really saw it as raw, just as another ingredient or flavor, but I guess it makes sense.
The cookie dough they use in cookie dough flavored things is safe to eat, mainly the raw egg is not there.
There’s no way they would purposely sell us anything with immediate health risk that can be easily pinned on them.
Also not all sushi is raw fish, some is cooked. Improperly handled raw fish can be very dangerous, so only eat it at places you trust (I.e maybe not the buffet or grocery sushi).
Raw cookie dough isn’t save to eat in general though.
You can make raw cookie dough that is safe to eat as well by altering the recipe slightly to replace the egg with alternatives or, industrially, it can be pasteurized which most all store-bought cookie dough will be made with to reduce their liability.
The egg isn’t nearly as much of a problem as raw flour.
Agreed but people act like it is
Lot of people love to eat the cookie dough raw.
