I am sick of these studies.

First they tell me eggs are bad for me. Then they say they aren’t so bad for me. Then, it seems, every week they say eggs aren’t as bad as previously thought.

At what point should they just say eggs is the sh*ts?

I’m not a big curry fan. I wouldn’t eat more because of a study.

I am holding out for the BACON is the best thing for you study.

I heard Dennis Praeger say, “Studies either confirm what sensible people already know, or they are false”.

Bacon studies in my house frequently ....dip your bacon in turmeric to help prevent strokes.

Eggs are probably just about the most complete bioavailable food on the planet.

Think about it.

You crack open an egg and see a bunch of liquid stuff.

But if that egg had been fertilized, and you kept it under a heat lamp, then you crack it open, you might find a whole, complete, intact living and breathing thing.

The egg itself has every single thing in it it needs to make a whole animal!

And as far as the CHOLESTEROL, eggs have alot of lecithin in them which effectively makes the cholesterol totally harmless.

If CHOLESTEROL was such a killer, farms all over would be littered with dead baby chicks!

I’ve been studying it for 12 years now. It does a body good and grows some big babies in the womb and then out.
