    Nice graph! Thanks. Isn't true that you can get nutrients and vitamins from the other food you eat throughout the day? Or is it just from eggs?

    Its so cute when they try to be funny......

    .....or maybe its just sad.

    Either way, I'm eating 2 WHOLE eggs today and they are going to be delicious. No sink of mine is getting those yummy yolks! lol

    Do you know how much protein the egg whites have? From my calculation, the 3 large egg whites have 10g of protein and the 3 whole eggs have 18g of protein. I could have a protein water with 10g of protein and 60 calories and solve that problem. Ice Cream doesn't have to bad for your either. It has protein too :)

    Does anyone know how much vitamin is in the yolk and how much vitamin is in the egg white?

    Don't know why this bit is coming up as a quote as well - not hugely techno-skilled - but here is a link:

    This page has a comprehensive chart of the nutritional content of both yolk and white. The vitamin content is all in the yolk, as is the majority of the Calcium, Zinc (very good for the immune system!) and Folate, as well as a lot of other good things. The sodium is also significantly lower in the yolk than the white, for those who worry about sodium.
