But contamination can also occur anywhere the food is being made. For example, if an ingredient is contaminated with Salmonella, it may get on equipment that can spread it to other food, the HHS says. Employees who don't wash their hands properly can also be a source of contamination in production facilities, according to 2013 report on Salmonella contamination. www.livescience.com/62838-salmonella-honey-smacks-recall.html |

Birds can have salmonella in their gut, and thereby in their droppings. Salmonella does not make birds sick, so you don't know which bird has it.
As a grain grower, I can easily understand how this could happen. Birds like to eat grains, and often leave droppings where they eat. There's inevitably some point from field to flour sack where a bird gets access to the grain supply.

Hmm. Good question.
Since most people cook flour, though, would that kill the salmonella? If so, don't eat your cookie dough or anything!

Yep, cooking kills salmonella.
