EGGS ARE GOOD EAT THEM

CoachReddy

But they still don't taste very good.

Taste is subjective.

You're kidding. Really?

Yeah, pretty much eggs are gross. And what they really are is a hen's period. Eating period. Eating a chicken's loaded maxi pad. NOM NOM NOM....VOMIT.

:huh:

1. Only mammals menstruate - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstruation_(mammal) - a hen is not a mammal
2. A period =/= an egg - it's womb lining
3. You are eating an ovulation, not a period

wtf is this thread! lmao

EGGS!!! I THINK EGGS ARE EGGSTREMELY SEXY.... I'm like NOM NOM NOM.

One of my co-workers tried to buy me an ostrich egg from Whole Foods the other day... due to my love of the egg...

Whole Foods sells ostrich eggs?! *runs off to Whole Foods*

Has anyone considered what happens to all the male chicks that are not required for the egg-laying part of the egg industry.

Do you know what happens to the hens when they have gone past efficiency in egg laying?

Eggs - a great source of protein, but at what cost? - no thanks.

Hey, as long as the eggs are free-range, who the hell cares about those pesky male chicks. Right?

Hey, let's all use the assumption that the egg-laying industry has the same practices across the board. Let's also pretend that small farmers who take good care of their birds don't exist, and we should totally not eat eggs because factory farming makes some farming bad.

I eat many eggs weekly, at least 7! I have a total cholesterol of 138 and while I don't remember exactly the ratio, I do remember that my doc said that the LDL is low and the HDL is high. It's the total diet/lifestyle that determine the outcome, on cholesterol, weight and everything else.I will def keep eating my eggs!

Thanks for posting.

Alright then. What happens to the male chicks from the farm you buy your eggs at?

Eggcellent thread. this thread is making me laugh :laugh:

Just in case anyone else needs a laugh...I'm with the ladies that thought the yolk was the chicken. WTF? I'm pretty sure someone told me that when I was young. And until reading this thread I was also pretty sure that the white part that is sometimes with the yolk and attached to it was the baby chick that started developing or its umbillical cord!

Anyway, I've always only eaten the whole egg - never been on the whole egg white train. In fact, I boil them up every sunday and bring one to work as a snack every day! Protein and fat work for me to keep me full so it's a perfect snack.

Just make sure your eggs come from an ethical producer! When I get back from Spain, it's veganism for me until I can raise my own hens.

I love eggs. I love whole eggs scrambled. However trying to watch calorie intake as well as cholesterol so I have recently switched to just egg whites. Still have some bacon with it and low fat cheese on a low carb wrap and some hot sauce. Ummm

Fabulous!! I've been wondering if my typical daily egg was too much or if 1 or 2 more a week would be ok! YaY!! Thanks for posting this. It clarified a lot about fats for me. That link is going on my blog today.

Not that is is relevant to the broader topic, but they either raise them for meat or sell them to other farms that need a rooster.

In any case, presenting a false dichotomy is erroneous.
