    I eat the yolks, it boggles my mind that people throw the most nutritious part of the egg away. It's deplorable.

    Agreed.

    My dogs eat yolks every morning, sometimes raw but usually cooked

    The yolk is the tastiest part, so I eat it! However, I don't have a cholesterol problem. Double however, I do use egg substitute and alternate using it and/or mix it with a whole egg now and then to save overall calories.

    Should be consuming those egg yolks. It is high in the "good cholesterol". Plus, you are missing out on some essential amino acids.

    When I used to do that I gave it to my cat. But now that eggs are considered healthy I don't separate them any more.

    Tsk tsk...raw???? bad bad bad...even as cooked it's not good , too much fat for a cat

    I eat the whole egg now, I used to not like the taste of yolk, but since the yolk holds so many nutrients I make sure to eat the entire egg now, and it's a nice compliment to the rest of my breakfast.

    I used to make omelets on the weekends & I used egg whites in the carton. They last forever!!! I stopped making them cause I like baby spinach leaves in mine & right now they go bad so fast so I stopped buying them. I would put mushrooms, baby spinach, mozzarella, & diced tomatoes in mine the tomato is a must! It just gives it a great flavor!

    To me yolk = flavor. Recent studies show that there is not that much cholesterol in eggs as once thought.

    When I was separating eggs, the yolk went in the trash. Now I just buy liquid egg whites. Much easier. :)

    When I made my omelets, I use 3 white and 1 yolk. The other two yolks I scramble for my toddler. She loves them, they give her much needed calories, and they aren't going to waste. I'd freeze them otherwise and just use them for my husband's eggs.

    They're too high in calories but we want to eat more.
    So, OUT GOES THE YOKES

    And they're not wasted. Some micro-organism makes food out of it in the garbage.
    Remember, germs are people too!
