My wife switched to them when she saw the amount of yolks I was throwing away. They cook much cleaner too, especially in the microwave.
I need to find another lean protein source as an alternative for breakfast though. Eating the hell out of egg whites lately. - 05-23-2006, 05:31 PM

I like the cartons for when I'm on the go or out somewhere and for some god forsaken reason don't have any food. Just pop into a grocery store, grap a carton, have it downed by the time I get to the register to pay for it. Beyond the occasional use however, regular eggs are just too dam cheap and easy to ignore. Besides, a certain amount of yolk is very good for you.

Seriously - try the Southwest Egg Beaters. I'm able to eat them daily, and I can't do that with regular.

Okay I'm obviously new to the Egg Beater scene, but you can drink them straight from the carton?
How does that taste? - 05-24-2006, 09:23 AM

I love egg whites. I mix in 1-2 whole eggs with 4-5 egg whites and have scrambled eggs. If I'm in a hurry, I throw them into my protein shake and down them, it actually makes the protein shake a bit creamier and more filling. Good stuff.
Then again if I eat too many...
and I get this

Id be curious to know the answer to this.
Heres the article I was talking about:
http://bodybuilding.com/fun/drryan28.htm
and here is the part about eggs:
"Some older athletic diets use to propose eating just raw eggs. This is a foolish attempt at taking in additional protein. Eating raw eggs (or raw egg whites) will only result in about 50% absorption of the available protein. That means that if you eat enough raw eggs to give you 40 grams of protein, your body will only absorb 20 grams.
Eating just raw egg whites results in the same (or worse). Egg whites have a huge amount of a substance called "avidin," which loves biotin. As a matter of fact, once the avidin-biotin forms a bond, the body can't break it apart. So you will develop a partial or full Biotin Deficiency Syndrome. Cooking your eggs (or egg whites) will quickly denature the protein avidin and will allow you to absorb 98% of the protein. In short, always cook your eggs." - 05-27-2006, 01:59 PM
So take a biotin supplement???
I have to imagine that Egg Beaters cooks these becuase you are able to eat them straight from the carton. - 05-27-2006, 02:12 PM
probably but i know that i personally used to use egg whites in my shakes when i was on a bulk. this is good info and if anyone knows the absolute answer to this question, please let us know
