Why do all sample menus include eggs?

[MWOS]

1. I once caught Salmonella from Peter Pan peanut butter
2. God bless us, every one
3. Those were my brilliant big boobs on Jeopardy today. Ok, not really. Dammit, TOTS.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

1. That is unfortunate. Peter Pan PB has no high fructose corn syrup. Which is just like sugar, if you ask the corn sizzurp people.
2. Ok, Tiny Tim.
3. I'm sorry for your lazy eye boobs. Also, I laughed at Dammit, TOTS.

Some of them aren't cute. Why would I lie and say they were? And if I retract it, you can bet your ass Mamasaurus would take that opportunity to be all "I TOLD YOU SO!" which in and of itself makes me keep saying it.

I'm going to channel pantsparty for a sec:

Yeah, I'm not a fan of eggs. They're alright, but I don't ever open the fridge and think " hmm, I could really go for an egg right now".

[pantsparty]

Bacon is the answer. Always.

Clearly casserole is the answer.

I love myself a breakfast casserole. Eggs and sausage in one convenient dish? Talk about saving time AND money!

[CurlyQ284]

I hate eggs too. For breakfast, I eat a South Beach Diet protein bar and a honey crisp apple. The cinnamon raisin one is delish. Only one grocery store in town sells SBD bars but I like them and most other breakfast bars I've seen aren't as good, nutrition-wise.

Kashi cereal has as much protein as an egg!

I fucking HATE eggs. I won't eat them if I can taste them (so basically unless they are used a binder in another recipe where I won't see egg pieces). I'm looking for meal planning ideas that are healthy, but every freaking one has eggs. I currently will have yogurt in the morning, but I was looking for some high-protein variety. Fucking eggs, man.

High five sista! The smell of eggs make me gag. I wont touch them.

Tots, you need some really fine scrambled eggs, made with cream. I would whip you up a nice batch. Gently break three eggs, fresh from the farm, into a nice pretty bowl. take a whisk and softly, carefully mix them together, while warming on a medium low heat a pleasant little skillet that lives to warm food for you and yours. Pour the eggs in, move them deliberately around the bottom of the pan with a fork, and when they are about half way done pour in a bit of heavy cream (this slows the cooking) and continue to stir with the fork until they are warm and yellow and sweet. Drop onto a delightful piece of buttered toast, sprinkle a little salt, and slice an orange into slivers and eat it all up in a fit of happiness. The texture will be that of a creme brûlée, without the brûlée.

I love love love to cook. Can you tell? You would like to have eggs at my house.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

Sue, if I liked eggs, I'd be all over that shit. Cream. Buttered toast. I just don't know if I could handle it. I always try whatever a host serves, so I've had some pretty doggone good eggs (a friend's husband is an executive chef at a very well-known restaurant). Heck, I make decent ones for my kids (see, protein to stave off tantrums).

However, I could get behind (hehehehe) some All-Clad.

[Deleted]

I love all forms of eggs except boiled and deviled.

This is a little off topic, but how do I make hardboiled eggs not smell up my refrigerator? Seriously. It is permeating the kitchen now and making me not want any of the food in there. Help!

  Indeed. Food is remarkable, and eggs are among the most remarkable of all. Inexpensive, renewable, full of nutrition, can be sweet or savory, mixed with any meat or pasta, omg. 

Eggs. 

Well yeah, unless they make you puke and give you hives. Fuckers. 

[Deleted]

I like no sugar added Carnation Instant Breakfast. Peanut butter is a good source of protein, so maybe PB on whole wheat toast. Or PB and banana. Yum.

    Well, yeah. But you could LEARN not to get hives from them. It's all psychological. lol 

OK, not really. 

Ooooh, I didn't realize that allergies were like pregnancies and that my body has a way to shut those things down.

You would love these eggs, but because I am SO fucking awesome, I would make you something else that you would love, love love. Do you like pasta alfredo? Because I have this light, incredible recipe for pasta carbonara that has the flavor but not the thickness. Thin spaghetti, boiled to al dente. Pour a leeetle eety beety bit of olive oil in a fry pan, and pour in the cooked noodles. Throw in some cream, and a couple of beaten eggs, and stir it around till the noodles have little teensy clumps of egg attached here and there, and no moisture in the bottom of the pan; fling in some diced fresh tomato and pancetta, and some grated parmesan, continue cooking til the parmesan melts, and try to stop yourself from planting your face in the plate and inhaling the entire mess. 

Tears, my friends. TEARS of joy. 

I like your use of fling. I wish to fling...things.

According to the article I read to learn how to make hard boiled eggs (I only do it once a year) - you have to put them in a sealed container because they will be smelly.

I'm very concerned about Vicky's slimy deviled eggs.

Pyrex glass containers.

Eggs are delicious. I especially love them soft boiled, runny, with slices of toast to dip in the yolk.

This is what I store them in now. They still smell. Sad day. 
I stuck some baking soda in there. I'm hoping it helps. 

[LeggsBenedict]

Eggs smell worse than wet dog. They smell like EGGS.

Man, fuck eggs.
