"Raw cookie dough is disgusting. Cookie dough tastes better cooked. Why would you leave it in its untransformed, its nascent state, when 10 minutes in the oven turns it into something that is the food of the gods?"
"What people like is the raw sugar and butter. Flour, raw flour, does not taste good."
Andrew Zimmern expresses his strong aversion to raw cookie dough, stating it is 'disgusting' and that it tastes better when baked. He believes consuming it raw does a disservice to the dessert, questioning why one would eat it in its untransformed state. Despite his opinion, raw cookie dough remains popular, with many enjoying it and shops dedicated to selling it. Zimmern points out that the appeal lies in the raw sugar and butter, but warns that raw flour can harbor dangerous bacteria.
