Starting with my grandmother, I’ve been warned by the various bakers in my life for about 50 years that the various kinds of raw dough I have wheedled them into giving me or snuck off of their work area will give me a stomach ache or cause other issues. The most recent time I was warned in this way was surely less than 2 months ago.
So far so good, not a single problem, and I never pass up a chance to eat uncooked batter or dough.
I am absolutely not saying the risk doesn’t exist, but the chance of it seems so minuscule (based on my anecdotal lifelong experience) that I only ever think about it when someone brings it up.
If I bought something prepackaged on a grocery store shelf, like from nabisco or whatever, that was undercooked, I wouldn’t eat it. From the kitchen of a relative or right from a bakery - has never given me pause.
Had no idea raw flour wasn’t safe. The store bought safe cookie dough always tastes like cardboard to me

If you bake dry flour , remember to NOT use convection.
