Yes, you can eat pepperoni raw. It’s a type of cured meat, after all, so it’s already been cooked. That said, it’s still a good idea to cook pepperoni before eating it, if only to kill any potential bacteria.

Raw pepperoni can also be a little tough and chewy, so cooking it can make it more tender. <\/p>\n \n
