Eggs and other meat products, are notorious for being contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella is a bacteria responsible for causing Salmonellosis, which is an infection from the agent. These products are very resilient and are found a lot in poultry and related products, including under cooked chicken, and chicken shells (the egg shells are nasty because salmonella permeates it).
