It may not be true, but I have been pretty convinced since I was a yoot that EVERY SINGLE EGG and EVERY CHICKEN YOU BUY has some salmonella in it.
It's all in the handling and cooking.

Well as far as the eggs go the bacteria is on the egg not in it. If you rinse the egg off with cold water it is usually enough to get the bacteria off the egg enough that it will not be a problem.
