Oh man. That disgusting sulfur smell. How can anyone eat something that smells so bad? I can't stand it! I have a hard time keeping my breakfast down when that odor hits my nostrils.
-
I quote my sister's exclamation the other day when I admitted to liking strawberry ice cream: "You sick fuck!"
-
I love strawberry ice cream.
I hate eggs, hate em, hate em, hate em. Like custard, like cake, hate eggs themselves. Yes, the smell, and add to that the nasty, spongy texture.
-
i love eggs. i will eat them here, i will eat them there, i will eat them anywhere.
i especially love eggs florentine with a mimosa.
-
I don't eat eggs anymore but mmm I sure did love hardboiled eggs back in the day.
-
Don't get me wrong--eggs aren't my absolute favorite. But sometimes a nice egg is exactly what I need. Poached, scrambled, boiled (soft and hard), fried, or shirred, jazzed up with spicy tomato sauce or folded around a succulent filling, all these and more have a place in my gustatory life. Add their uses in sauces, cakes, cookies, puddings (including custard), ice cream, and so on and on and on, and it's plain they're indispensable.
In other words, yay, eggs!
P.S. Emily, I'd happily join you for that breakfast.
-
I'll join you two.

Oh barf. Eggs are okay in baked goods, but not on their own -- deviled, boiled scrambled, whatever. MAKES ME SICK.
How can you guys get over that smell? It's like farts. You guys like eating farts?
-
I'll join you two.

Oh yes. Gimme that with crabmeat instead of ham. It's sooooo tasty.
I had a friend that used to tell me I was eating chicken abortions whenever I had eggies. Jerk.

I eat eggs almost every day. The last time I had my cholesterol checked, it was lower than average. I don't know how that works, exactly, but I'm guessing the fact that I tend to eat various types of good food, avoid eating garbage, and get a reasonable amount of exercise has something to do with it.
So, no, I don't hate eggs.
-
I have low cholesterol, too, but that's because I don't eat red meat and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.
-
I would have high cholesterol if I ate only brown rice. 'Tis in my genes. Very liberating.
Laurie, I like very smelly cheese as well.
-
I bet eggs aren't expensive enough for Laurie. They're common-man food.
-
Ever since she ran into that issue with the golden eggs at the factory...

No eggs for poor filthy Laurie.
-
I like eggs.
I hate milk.
-
My mom used to make me scrambled eggs w/ mustard. They were good!

I think that comment is particularly tasteless in light of National Chicken Avatar Month.
-
Mmmmm, milk. Can't live without it.
Chris L., what kind of mustard? Sounds interesting.

Gulden's.

Milk is yum.
So are eggs with Frank's Red Hot sauce all over them!
I made a really good strata last week with italian bread, spinach and feta. We call it the Eric Estrada.
-
As a vegatarian I eat them now and again but I almost always regret it.
-

I agree completely.
I especially like putting Frank's on an egg and cheese sandwich.
-
MILK IS ALSO GROSS.
...But I love soy milk. And also cream. I can't explain it.
-
There's a reason milk spoils in like 10 minutes if it isn't refrigerated, and that reason is: it's not supposed to drunk by human beings, it's only s'posed to be drunk by calves straight from the teat.
Unlike chicken abortions, which are meant to be enjoyed by all humanity. It's in the Bible. Go check.

eggs and milk belong in the hate pit with the rest of the trash.

i like milk by itself but i hate the combination of eggs and milk (like scrambled eggs with milk) the eggs get all fluffy and weird.
-
I like scrambled eggs made with tomato's, spinach and cottage cheese.

You guys never addressed the odor issue. They smell like farts! You remember when you did that sulfur experiment in seventh grade science, and everyone retched at the smell? That smell is the same as eggs! Hello! It's like a broken septic tank or something. Awful.
Do you guys plug your nose as you eat it? If so, how do you breathe?
-
If I think about it too long I can't eat em'
Can't eat em' without toast.
Toast is my chaser for eggs.

Free and easy. I think it's because they don't smell like farts.

They only smell like that if they're going bad. You gotta do a little something called "cook" them anyway.
-
The only time I've ever noticed that sulfur smell is in hard-boiled eggs, and then only rarely. There was unfortunate incident with a plate of deviled eggs once . . .
Laurie, you're suffering from egg paranoia.
-
I love eggs from my head down to my legs.
Especially Eggs Benedict.
-
That's not true! Unless my co-workers enjoy eating and cooking rotten eggs, you know. Because those eggs they're eating? Stink something awful.
-
Maybe your co-workers are just especially farty?
I made strata last night with cheddar and spinach and onions. DEEEEELISH. (and very good for someone on a budget...)
-
I'll give you this, Laurie: There's nothing worse than an egg-fart.
Egg salad kinda smells like farts, I'll give you that, too.
-
I hate eggs and pretty much anything that is considered "breakfast foods". I'd rather eat a sandwich in the morning then sit down with some eggs or cold cereal. Yeeessh!
So, yeah, I can go without ever eating an egg in my life with the exception in baked goods. The only time I use milk is to dip Oreos in. That's a treat that can't be beat.

That's funny, but you should spell it Erika Strada. It's somehow funnier when you have to figure it out.
-
I too hate eggs.
The smell is gross, and when I see someone dipping their toast in the running yoke part it makes me want to be sick.
I used to have to make gallons of egg salad at this restaurant that I worked in. I would wear a nose plug because it was such a strong smell.
Blecchhh
