After a November recall of Duncan Hines cakes mixes, the CDC issued a press release reminding people of the dangers of salmonella.

Flour and raw eggs, both of which are often used in dough and batter, can contain bacteria and salmonella, which pose health risks. The CDC noted that in 2016, E. coli outbreak traced back to raw flour made 63 people sick.
