In the 1950s, boiled eggs and buttered toast were staples of the American breakfast. A new study reignites the debate over whether eggs are a healthy food.

Yes they are.

They were wrong about butter.
They were wrong about margarine.
They were wrong about coffee.
They were wrong about red meat.

Not sure why anyone believes their pronouncements...

I see people in the movies and television eat eggs like this.

I just can’t do it. I don’t care if that shell has been boiled.

possibility of Cross contamination still bothers me. It’s not logical, I know

I remember the shot glasses. We also did a lot of poached eggs. I still do...on toast.

I eat what I want but some things I don't eat/drink....maybe because of my age. No chips and no soda. We always had popcorn.

I’m in my mid-50’s.
They have flip-flopped on this repeatedly in my lifetime.
Did the same with coffee.

I’m done listening.

I’ve made it to 60. I figger anything that hasn’t killed me yet isn’t going to kill me. I was not a heavy egg eater but since I moved to a place where they have hens on the premises (my landlord calls them “the ladies”), I eat two fried eggs every other day. Haven’t keeled over yet.

Isn’t the egg in the pitcher poached rather than boiled?

My blood pressure last measured 118/79 after eating bacon, buttered toast and two eggs a day for the last two years.

Raisin bran breakfasts before that weren't as good.

This was the second fake science that I learned about as a kid circa 1980’s. The first was the “Ice Age coming”/we are all going to die and we are all going to die if we eat eggs.

Useless study. Eggs as opposed to what? Croissants and butter? Pork sausage? Celery? Nothing? Eggs with yolks? Without? Coffee/no coffee?

All things in moderation. And hold the placenta.

Some people think ‘”I can eat as many eggs as I want’”


I am one of these people.

Well, I don’t know and I don’t really care.

But Schiff and Pelosi have egg on their faces so that’s good...and funny.

I think that is considered a “soft-boiled” egg. My mom would make them like this:

In a small bowl, pour about 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.

Make some toast, butter it, and then cut into small cubes.

Open the soft-boiled egg into the bowl, add salt & pepper, stir to have the toast cubes soak up the egg. YUM

I am an egg lover. I have made it into my early 60’s eating eggs. If my wife was not around to cook for me, I’d probably live on steak and (fried) eggs. What I really like are farm fresh eggs.
