Is that fairy bread? She's totally having fairy bread for breakfast.

Didn't know what fairy bread was. Now that I've googled it I can say it's quite comparable. It's called vruchtenhagel. It's comparable to hagelslag (chocolate sprinkles) but consists of crunchy sugary sprinkles that taste very sweet.

All these runny yolks are making me concerned about you guys getting salmonella lol. I've never seen anybody I know actually eat intentionally runny yolks.
I hate cooked yolk, I always eat it runny; boiled and fried eggs. It gets heated enough. Besides in Japan in some dishes like sukiyaki they just straight up dip stuff in raw egg before eating it (they kept assuring me they had special salmonella free chickens whatever that means). A lot of older pastry recipes used raw eggs that were very popular back in the day. Not so much anymore, but hardly anyone got sick. As a kid I loved licking out the spoon when my mom made cookie dough, which in retrospect meant raw eggs too. You don't get salmonella that quickly from raw eggs; raw chicken on the other hand...

The salmonella with eggs exists on the egg shell, so as long as you don't mix the two, you're pretty much good to go.

They make pasteurized eggs though if you're still worried.

Edit: In Japan they stamp their eggs with two dates, the earlier indicating it's safe for raw consumption.
