Yes, an uncracked egg can still carry Salmonella bacteria. This contamination can occur when the bacteria are present on the hen's ovaries or in the environment where the eggs are laid. Proper cooking and handling can significantly reduce the risk of foodborne illness from Salmonella, regardless of whether the egg is cracked or not.
