And seems I read where a lobbyist wanted to move bacon and eggs so got with a powerful someone who promoted it as a breakfast meal.
“The World Health Organization (WHO) and other public health authorities actually use eggs as their reference standard for evaluating the protein quality in all other foods. Egg protein is usually referred to as “HBV” protein, meaning protein with High Biological Value. Since eggs are used as the reference standard for food protein, they score 100% on the HBV chart.” http://whfoods.org/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=92
I remember it well, after his heart attack the doctors told my dad they could see the chickens swimming around in his blood...yeah, he smoked 4 packs day from the time he was 12 and worked with asbestos his entire adult life...and they were worried about eggs...
LOL! “Remember! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!” Then follows bacon, eggs, milk, caffeine, and sugar as things to avoid. You’re practically down to bran muffins and orange juice for breakfast!
I remember when butter would kill you because “animal fat” and margarine would make you live forever because “made from vegetable oils”.
And I remember when sugar would kill you dead but high fructose syrup would make you live forever because it came from fruit.
You remind me that I need to roast a tray of bacon. I do a half-sheet pan with a parchment sheet in the bottom to catch the grease, then a baking rack with ~10 slices on it. ~25 minutes at 425F for the thick-sliced stuff I buy. 1-3 times a week, with me and my wife.
Oh hell yeah, lewis grizzard did a great comedy but about it.
Did you ever go to Hof's hut(burgers) in Long Beach at Belmont Shores? Used to go up there from Huntington Beach back in the day.
I just got done finishing 2 fresh chicken eggs with my dinner. The eggs were fresh off the coop.
I remember.
One of the gazillion reasons I don't believe a word they say about anything.
I miss Lewis Grizzard. He spoke the truth with a southern tone.
I told my son as a child, if you can master the egg, you’ll never go hungry
Lewis used to refer to his prior wife as Petitioner.
I have half a mind to go inside and cook up a whole pan full of bacon right now.
But, the other half of my mind is saying, "Nah. Just go in and grab another beer."
It's a hundred degrees under the shade device right now so it's kind of hard to argue with that kind of wisdom.
Anybody else care for a brewski?
Wasn’t that about the time of “the incredible, edible egg” campaign?
Funny bastard!
Yep
I’m old enough to remember the bran muffin craze. Everybody was eating them. And then running to the toilet a few hours later.
Which one?
Animals have been eating eggs (other species’ eggs) for aeons, and getting by quite well.
I like them, except they don’t get along with my microwave. :(
