    Regarding salmonella in eggs it's different in different parts if the world. Here in the UK, eating raw eggs is a bit like playing Russian Roulette - I know - I had salmonella and came pretty damn close to dying from it! Some of the guys in my gym have also had it from eggs and lost months worth of gains. Now we all cook them... Well!!! I think eggs are much safer on the US though, and eggs in a carton are pasteurised so should be okay.

    That defeats the purpose of eating them...

    Maybe as you said it has to do with location but in the states i have never had this problem. I have comsumed hundreds of raw eggs (Usually 6 eggwhites in milk in the morning when bulking).

    I like egg whites in my shakes. I dont mind the flavor and it makes the shake a little less watery. But i usually only do it in the morning when i am eating cooked whole eggs also (not that this matters but its just when i do it)
