Yes, people have gotten sick from Salmonella and E. coli from eating raw flour.

In a flour recall that happened in March 2023, 14 people got sick with 3 hospitalizations.

Here were some others:

  • 2021, cake mix recall that led to 16 sick and 7 hospitalized
  • 2019, flour recall that led to 21 sick and 3 hospitalizations
  • 2016, flour recall that led to 63 sick and 17 hospitalizations

Flour is one of the top ten foods that cause illnesses (source).
