Remember as kids, we were given eggnog with raw egg? YUM.

Over easy isn't fully cooked either.

Who knows? I think that the issue with raw egg is if it stays for a long time at room temperature, you can have bad stuff growin' in it.

Caesar Dressing requires the use of only the yolk of the egg. Properly done, the egg is coddled, (lightly or barely cooked) and then the yolk is whisked into the dressing. Addressing your health risk concern, the chances of contracting Salmonella from a coddled egg in Caesar dressing is 1 : 30,000.

This thread has gotten very far off track. My original post addressed the hidden charge of $1.99 for 4 crumby Anchovy filets at Cane Garden. Now we are into sharing Caesar Salad recipes and talking about health risks associated with eating raw eggs. Someone should monitor this stuff and not allow comments that have noting to do with the original subject of the Thread.



That in itself is off topic! :icon_hungry:

I think everyone was just trying to add value to the thread.

I think I'm confused. If some people say anchovies belong in the salad and others don't, wouldn't some restaurants think they do and others don't? When I get a garden salad it isn't always the same. Some have onions, some have carrots and radishes, some come with croutons and then some don't come with much more than lettuce.
While I agree the manager was rude, I guess the lesson is to always ask.
BTW I always ask if the rice pudding or carrot cake has raisins cause I don't like them, and some restaurants have them and some don't.

My grandmother always said you can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar.

I didn't ask her about anchovies.

Sorry, sorry, sorry
 
There once was a song by Bon Jovi
Not a mention was made of anchovy,
Are whole ones on Ceasars exotic?
Expecting upcharge notice quixotic?
I don't know, so I think I'll just mosey.

:ohdear:
