Bendare... alotlately.
Are these the same people who inflicted tofurkey on us?
I agree.
This seems ok, if not good, for scrambled eggs or omelettes, although the taste and consistency may be questionable. I’d like to try it.
For baking or sauces — sounds good — again, if their claims to “functional equivalence” stand up.
But I like eggs over easy, or soft boiled, or even hard boiled.
I want that yolk and white not all homogenized. Softly cooked yolk mixing with cooked potatoes is delicious and is something that they can’t replicate.
***It’s hard to believe a blend of plants can imitate not only the taste of an egg, but the ability to whip up into foam like an egg, or coagulate into gel like an egg, but Tetrick said his team is clever about selecting plants that not only replicate, but surpass the egg in food products. ****
Sounds like a highly processed food product to me! What is wrong with a real EGG! They are about the cheapest thing in the grocery store!
Amen.
I even like over easy eggs on sammiches.
It’s possible.
Those green Araucana eggs are the best!
And yet, they claim it to be ‘natural’............
“Those green Araucana eggs are the best!”
They are wonderful. She has chickens runnin’ all around her back yard. They’re cheap eggs at $3, because she gets more than she can use, and sells the extras to neighbors and friends.
The yolks on those are fantastic.
A reddish orange.
Now THAT is 'frankenfood".
Notice they were careful to try to imply that the plants are used; not chemically digested plants, which then have their proteins separated, and then some of the purified proteins recombined into...
WAIT FOR IT...
YELLOW SLIME!
Also, a fallacy was listed: The plants we've identified not only achieve this, but are able to be sourced at a price that is disruptive to the long-term price of egg ingredients.
On a small scale, perhaps; but when scaled to NATIONAL (perhaps even state) levels, supply & demand will kick in, and suddenly those sourced prices will soar.
I saw what you did there.
We keep our own chickens for eggs: We know that they have excellent environmental conditions and what goes into their
feed. The eggs are delicious: to heck with your phony eggs.

I just don’t get liberal logic.”
Suggest you never try to have a conversation with a tree hugger about why it really is okay to cut down a tree, use it for timber and paper products and replace it with another one. For them to acknowledge that animals and plant life can reproduce and replenish their own species would require them to do an about face and that’s not going to happen.
I also doubt if most of them have any idea about the reproductive cycle of a chicken.
Yes indeed.
