The FDA says not to eat any raw items that use flour. Baking, frying or boiling will make the bacteria harmless. Also make sure you wash your hands, surfaces and utensils when cooking with raw dough or flour.

Consumers with questions are being told to call ADM Milling Co. customer service at 800-422-1688 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT.
