Egg Beaters question

I have a reaction to eggs when I eat them as scrambled or alone. They give me a bad tummy ache. I can eat eggs as ingredients in other foods and not have a reaction. I miss scrambled eggs though. Does anyone know if egg beaters would cause me the same reaction? I have also been told, most likely it is the yolk that is cauisng my discomfort and I should try egg whites only when making scrambled eggs.

I could just trial and error but the tummy ache is not worth the error. Just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience.

  • If your reaction is to the yolks, you should be ok with Egg Beaters as they use only the whites (I think).

    I'm not entirely sure, but I know my mother-in-low is intolerant/allergic to eggs, but she can eat egg beaters. You can get egg beaters that are only whites, or with yolks I think.
