OK I did some googling and I feel really dumb about eggs!0

But they still don't taste very good.
The only time I can see people purposely eating JUST the egg white is if 1) they don't tolerate yolk well (for whatever reason) or 2) they want all the protein they can get without additional calories - ie: dieting.
But for me, if it fits in my caloric totals for the day ... whole egg all the way. Preferably with a side of naturally-cured bacon and fresh-from-the-butcher sausage, thank you.0 -
Eat the whole thing!! Who has time to separate them anyway???? Besides, the good stuff far outweighs any of the 'bad' stuff. If you believe it.0

Thanks for the chuckle! Hey, the yolk is round and yellow, just like a little chicken.... I totally get it.0 -
All ways eat them whole and eat loads.
If i need to seperate i always keep what wasn't used and add it to the next eggs i eat.
Really can't stand to know some waste full ppl through away the yolk...thats the best bit.
Makes me think of ppl who through a way the broccoli stalk,can't stand that either.0 -

I love eggs and eat them just about every day.
Whole eggs are a perfect food nutritionally speaking. Take away the yolk and it is incomplete.0 -
I have at least 1 chicken or duck egg a day, hard boiled, as a snack before bed.
I find them very filling, and very good if you are struggling with sweet cravings.
Edited to avoid any confusion, lol.0 -

Haha, yes, same here, though admittedly, my bf can eat a whole chicken in one go. I think it left him feeling really unwell though the other day as he had that on top of a load of easter eggs.0 -
So how do people get high cholesterol without being overweight yet eat a diet high in fat and cholesterol?hmmm0

Eat the eggs! Eat the whole eggs! Yolks aren't evil. Dietary fat and cholesterol have nothing to do with the fat and cholesterol on and in your body. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/fats-full-story/ (ignore the crap at the bottom about replacing butter, dairy, and red meats... that's pure tripe).
JUST EAT THE FREAKIN' EGGS FFS.

I was eating 2 eggs a day for awhile, but everyone was telling me my cholesterol would go up because I'm eating the yolk. So then I saw some post about how you shouldn't eat more than 4 whole eggs a week because of the cholesterol..... I tried doing 1 egg every other day and the rest just egg whites. But the egg whites alone can be so boring!
I'd rather eat the whole egg... don't body builders eat the whole egg raw? I'd never do that but what is so wrong with eating the whole damn egg.0 -

1. They eat not just a high-intake of dietary fat and cholesterol, but also a high-intake of carbohydrates, especially refined carbohydrates, or;
2. They are genetically predisposed to hypercholesterolemia, which some people are.
However, who cares? High cholesterol is not an indicator of poor health. It was once thought it was a cause of CVD, and a hypothesis was presented - but that hypothesis was not only never proven, but while attempting to prove it clinical and epidemiological trials more-often-than not found negative correlations to high serum cholesterol levels and CVD.0 -

I do 1-2 whole eggs and the rest egg white for breakfast simply because it fits my day's goal better
Yolks are yummy, but I love me some egg whites0 -

Oh how I love EGGS!!! I eat them every day. Every single day. I do separate my yolks/whites but its only because I have a sweet dog who LOVES egg yolks. So most days I have 2 whole eggs + 1 white, and my sweet Snowy gets the yolk from the separated egg. Her coat, eyes, and skin LOVE IT. She's 11 years old and acts and looks like a puppy - nobody believes me when I tell them how old she is! Well we both start our day with a healthy breakfast, so I think we'll keep on doing what works! LOVE EGGS. EGGS RULE.0

Exactly right. People's bodies MAKE cholesterol. And Raidergirl.. I'm 280 pounds of obeseness.. and I eat eggs and shrimp and other high cholesterol foods and my cholesterol is so low that it shows up as "outside the norms" on most tests. Being obese doesn't cause you to have high cholesterol either...0
