Eggnog...?

I keep forgetting to ask my doctor but has anyone else... Are we allowed to drink eggnog? My husband insists that I shouldn't be allowed but maybe that's because he hates eggnog. Lol I love eggnog and it's Christmas!! :(

Re: Eggnog...?

  • Everything I've read says stay away. Unless you can find some that is pasteurized, I would guess that it's not safe.

  • The eggnog sold at grocery stores should be pasteurized and alcohol-free, so I vote go on.

  • If it's homemade, it's not safe. If it is store bought and made with pasteurized eggs, it's okay. Just make sure it's pasteurized and not spiked with alcohol!
  • Good question! I love eggnog as well. My mom and dad used to fill a cup with Blue Bell homemade vanilla ice cream and pour eggnog on top. Then they would add a dash of rum flavoring (neither of my parents drink). It was like an eggnog float. SO YUMMY.
  • I've had some store-bought eggnog this season. I love the stuff!

  • I was drinking the Target-Market pantry light egg nog for a week straight during my 8th week, and I enjoyed every last gulp.

  • I've been drinking Califia Farms Holiday Nog made with almondmilk because I'm lactose intolerant. No eggs, no dairy which doesn't make it as creamy but it's delicious. It's a great alternative for those not comfortable with drinking egg yolks.
  • I can't vouch for it, but Silk also makes a nog.

  • I've been drinking store bought pasteurized egg nog for the last couple weeks. I just know Canadian brand names though, we've had Dairyland around.
  • If you can ever find Borden, do it. I've been looking for that brand for years. Darigold is the closest tasting, and milk nog is good too if you can find it.
  • Just reading the word "Eggnog" made me gag a little so I say DON'T DO IT!

    As for logical, actual reasons for not drinking it...I have none lol
  • I've been drinking egg nog every chance I get - especially at parties - makes me still feel festive! I buy it by the half-gallon from a local farm and it is pasteurized/alcohol-free. I tried to order at a bar the other night but it was homemade so had the egg yolk + alcohol...bummer! But I love it even alcohol-free! Cheers!
  • We have both caramel and pumpkin spice egg nog at home. Even better than regular egg nog.

  • There are recipes online for cooked eggnog too! It's safe as the eggs get heated to 160°! I love eggnog and it doesnt exist in France, so I've been making cooked eggnog the past few weekends. It's not as good as the store-bought US or the homemade with raw eggs stuff, maybe if I used cream instead of just milk it might get better. I'm considering looking for pasteurized eggs so I can make it with a raw egg recipe, but I'm lazy.
    J'15 January Signature Challenge: Pinterest Fail: I want to do one, but I was late in starting and now I'm too lazy to get in on it. This is how most of my pinterest fails normally occur, at least I didnt buy supplies.
