My only concern would be whether or not it looked tasty. And really, I wouldn't even be THAT concerned about that. Sugar + carbs + butter? In it goes!

As long as something looks clean I think it's probably safe enough. I've never gotten sick from bake sale or friend items, and I love to bake for other people.

I've eaten treats from the teachers lounge without even knowing who put it there. If you don't eat baked goods from others, do you eat at restaurants or other food service places? There's no distinction to me between the two. mrs. 64 on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people/page/2#post-1270314 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 18:16:21 +0000 mrs. 64 1270314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm gluten free so it is a rarity that someone else bakes something I can eat. If they do, I'm super thankful and I definitely eat it!

I eat my own baked goods and those that my mother makes. She is an amazing baker so I'm very spoiled with her goodies!

Andrea on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people/page/2#post-1270282 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 18:03:01 +0000 Andrea 1270282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I also find it creepy unless it is from someone I know very well, like my MIL! So I would never gift baked goods to people (homemade). I feel like other people have this phobia as well and it would be a waste of a gift/effort.

I've also eaten "stranger danger" baked goods before without any hesitation. #livinontheedge erinpye on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people/page/2#post-1270035 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:46:39 +0000 erinpye 1270035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ From friends and fam- absolutely! sunny on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1270023 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:44:30 +0000 sunny 1270023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes unless it is from a total stranger. Question to those uncomfortable with eating other people's baked goods: would you share a sip/bite of someone else's food? I see that everywhere but that's something I wouldn't do for fear of getting sick. I figure the high heat in cooking/baking kills most germs though! nana87 on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1270015 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:41:36 +0000 nana87 1270015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I definitely do! One of our closest friends loves to bake--she and her husband live two doors down and come over at least twice a month to watch football and she always brings us cookies or other treats--I love it!

I love it when my coworkers (even ones I don't really know) bring in baked goods!

I even snack on the treats people bring into the NICU as thank you gifts for taking care of their baby! We get a ton this time of year.

But the one thing I won't eat is cake balls, just because you have to roll them out by hand and that totally creeps me out. looch on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269951 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:14:12 +0000 looch 1269951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Depends who it is!

If a family member (who I know has a decently clean house) sends something over then I do. I can eat my moms baked goods all day long ;) SugarplumsMom on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269921 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:01:07 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1269921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Heck yes! I especially love to buy what the kids have baked and made at local markets. For instance, I've had the best carrot bread baked by a kid at a local grade school and just this past weekend, I had the best fudge ever, baked by a jr. high school student. Mmmm! sandy on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269907 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 15:50:23 +0000 sandy 1269907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Always! pui on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269905 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 15:49:38 +0000 pui 1269905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Just a question to those of you who are uncomfortable eating baked goods made by people: are you also uncomfortable about eating a dinner someone else prepared at their house? I figure a lot of the same germ stuff applies to that too, no? If you do happily eat home cooked meals at other's homes, why avoid baked goods? looch on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269892 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 15:46:16 +0000 looch 1269892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I am very weird about eating baked goods from people's homes..who knows if their cat walked across the counter, if they took a break to walk their dog and didn't wash their hands, if they licked the spoon by accident. This is why I don't gift baked goods either. So many people just deposit them right in the trash and that's a waste of time and money! pui on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269890 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 15:46:09 +0000 pui 1269890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe if it's from a stranger, but I eat baked goods people I know/am close to made all the time. cyndistar3 on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269880 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 15:43:48 +0000 cyndistar3 1269880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Of course I do! I have never even thought to question it unless it was some random creep :/ MrsKoala on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269709 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:52:48 +0000 MrsKoala 1269709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Always. doodlepoodle on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269701 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:49:58 +0000 doodlepoodle 1269701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ There are a few people I've worked with that I won't eat their stuff but it's bc I know they aren't clean people (if their clothes are visibly unwashed, know they don't wash hands in the bathroom, etc) but if I know/trust where they came from? Yes!! blackbird on "Do you eat baked goods from other people?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-eat-baked-goods-from-other-people#post-1269689 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:43:54 +0000 blackbird 1269689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Hell yes! I was never aware that people don't eat baked goods in the office. Mine always disappear super fast :)
