    Liquid egg substitute. They're made out of real eggs, but magically have no cholesterol. It comes in a carton.

    they are liquid eggs. They come in a carton, and are mostly egg whites, they have a tiny bit of yolk added, i believe.They look and taste exactly like a regular scrambled egg, but about half the calories.

    I meant the eggbeaters... but secretly I meant the piles and piles of yellow fried food that I'm going to lose an extra 10kilos for, so that when I come to the US to celebrate the end of my journey and go nuts eating all the foods I've ever wanted to try, when I get back I'll be on track for maintenance!

    Gotcha!
    Well enjoy your trip over here to the Mecca of Industrial food products :)
    Please check out some real American fare - it's a fantastic place for great food if you look around. Smelt fry's are a big deal here in WI along with some good craft cheese and beer still :)
