So, can you get salmonella from hard-boiled eggs? Absolutely. But only if you’re careless. Treat your boiled egg like a very fragile, hungry diva: keep it cold, keep it whole, and eat it within a week. Follow those rules, and you’ll be fine.
Otherwise, prepare for a very dramatic story to tell your friends: “I fought salmonella and won… but the toilet definitely got the last laugh.” Now go forth, boil boldly, and for the love of all that is holy, use a fridge. Your guts will thank you.
