Dried egg whites

Those are awesome! And so handy. (Much easier than separating eggs.)

Dried whole eggs are another story. Anyone have any tips or hints about how to make those taste good?

re: ...including artery-clogging palm kernel oil and coconut oil....

I'm going to sound like all I'm doing is posting "commercials," but that isn't my intent. Coconut oil has gotten a bad rap because of a questionable study sponsored by some canola oil outfit, if I recall. (Remember the controversy about movie theater popcorn? That's when this bad rap stuff got started.)

Now, having said that, the CHEMICALLY-EXTRACTED coconut oil used in most processed foods is gunky stuff. However, cold-pressed coconut oil is good stuff. It can be used at high temps without breaking down. (Some studies have even shown that because of the way it's digested/metabolized, it's essentially only half the calories of most other, even cold-pressed organic. fats. High in those good omega fatty acids, too.) Do a google.com search on "cold-pressed coconut oil" and you'll find lots of info out there on this!

Ghastly stuff, I haven't got a clue, and because of that I seldom use or recommend them.

You are so right, Coconut oil got such a bad rap, and for that reason few folks got to know what a great product it truly is. Aside from it's high heat tolerance, the refined virgin coconut oil tastes wonderful, adding a subtle flavor to whatever it is used for. However, I believe ADM, Archer Daniels Midland, and their shameful promotion of soybean, deliberately added to the slanderous treatment of this wonderful product.
