Most raw eggs are fine. Where I live (France) it’s common to eat them raw in dishes (tartare, tiramisu, mayonnaise, hollandaise sauce, etc). It’s only suggested to avoid raw eggs if you are pregnant or are immune-compromised.
In the US, eggs are washed before being sold which actually removes a protective barrier so they are more prone to bacteria I think, maybe that’s why it’s more rare to eat raw eggs in the US.
