    I only eat egg beaters for breakfast. I don't eat whole eggs anymore unless there is a dish that I have eaten made with egg's. My .02....LOL

    I do eggs mainly but if a recipe calls for egg whites, I'll use from the actual egg and NEVER buy egg beaters

    I really like the whites, will eat whole eggs too, and personally don't like the taste of Beaters, but they'll do in a pinch. As a matter of fact I mix a drink with liquid egg whites almost daily. This particular brand is tasteless and not slimey, so you can make a drink with it: cold coffee, crystal lite, it all works. Sounds crazy, I know. I thought the same until I tried it. Check it out:

    The whole egg unless a recipe calls for just the whites or just the yolks. I don't like the taste of Egg Beaters either.

    I LOVE whole eggs, but I limit them to maybe twice a week - controlling the fat, not the cholesterol. I just don't want that much fat all the time. On most days I use Egg Beaters Egg Whites to make omelets - fantastic. After a while, you really don't miss the yoke.

    I tried Egg Beaters (the original, yellow), but after a while, the taste sorta wore on me. And they really don't act like real eggs.

    For cooking in recipes, I use whole eggs most of the time. It's only when I'm scarfing down 3 of them that I care about getting in to much fat.
