I have to agree here- while I think the chance of my having a problem
with an egg (the actual rate of infection in commercial eggs is
negligible) is low, when cooking for others the chances of their having
problems goes up. Someone on immune-suppressive drugs, for instance- how
would I know they're attending feast? Do I want to take a chance? Not
really.

But if I'm making eggnog at home, that's what I'll use. Yum. Hmm... now
I want eggnog...
