I do.
It entirely depends on freshness and how the egg is cooked.
I like eggs, but old or even slightly burnt eggs get pretty gross.
i’d like to add: the gross glibberishness eggs give to mayo is in fact gross.
Absolutely. Eggs are the perfect food. As Beyonce said “If you liked it you should have put an egg on it.”
I love eggs.
I’m having eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs, spam and eggs!
Slow down there Gaston.
I take that, but without the spam!
Yes. Eggs are awesome. I throw a fried egg on top of about half my meals, and scrambled or poached egg on toast is great. Eggs Benedict may be my favourite dish ever.
Eggs Benedict is well awesome.
My fave is a variation on that… Eggs California. Avocado, tomato on English muffins with poached eggs and hollandaise.
whooooo…
Hollandaise is so fucking good I could drink it by the cup.
Im not sure if it’s because I’m from Europe and it being not so popular here or because I’m a cretin but I don’t get poached eggs. Why would you take extra steps to prevent the egg from dissolving in the water when you can simply cook it inside it’s shell?
Soft-boiled eggs are just a bit too firmly ‘egg shaped’ to make a good benedict.
Poached eggs are flatter and the white is softer.
Also, to easily prevent the egg white from coming apart when you drop the egg in, just add a dash of vinegar to the boiling water. It causes the white to stick together.
So it’s mostly about the shape so that you can put the egg on toast? That I can understand but I think I prefer fried egg on my toast 😬
Yep. A Benedict or a Cali, the egg will roll off if it’s not flat.
I like a fried egg on a cheeseburger
Fuck yeah
Eggs Benedict is the best! When I try a new breakfast place it’s the dish I get in order to judge the new spot.
I actually have a silly breakfast blog. I’m trying to have breakfast in all 351 towns & cities in my state. I’m at 137. However, there are plenty of small towns that do not have a breakfast place. So, I won’t reach 351.
The Dull Men’s Club group may like your food blog posts, just sayin
Really? Just as an add on? Or, actually link to the blog entry?
As someone’s who’s tasted an egg I can only assume that were part of some elaborate worldwide practical joke to get us to eat them, because I think they smell and taste disgusting.
Fucking love it. Fresh-cooked eggs are great, especially egg yolk.
However, if you genuinely don’t like em, don’t let anyone force you to eat them just because most people like them! Throw the eggs in their face! Demand a better thing that isn’t an egg! Build a house of pain made of egg-loving freaks! Stand on it, laughing maniacally, flamethrower trigger permanently on!
…or hopefully people will accept it when you politely refuse eggs. That would also be nice.
Wasted opportunity for a lemon speech, but still close enough.
I like the lemon speech, but sometimes it’s good to try and be original, fail horribly, and regret everything.
Understandable :D
On its own it doesn’t really have a distinct taste or smell to me. I rarely cook eggs without adding seasoning or flavor. At the minimum I cook it in butter, so that already adds great taste and smell to it.
Fucking love eggs. Boiled, salt & pepper. Yum.
Yes.
I used to hate it but I eventually developed a taste for fried eggs
Most other egg styles are still a no
Smell, no. But taste? Eggs are tasty.
I have chickens, and whether or not I like the taste and smell of eggs is wildly dependent upon the eggs and preparation.
I worked at a chicken hatchery in high school and was traumatized by what we called “poppers”, which are eggs that rot inside with the shell fully intact, wherein any contact with the shell causes it to explode. It took me over a decade to eat eggs again. And I still won’t eat anything like quiche, omelets, or even just plain scrambled eggs. I find them gross for whatever reason.
But a sunny side up or an egg salad or something? French toast? Egg bread? Breakfast bagel bombs? Sure.
Depends on how they’re made. Eggs I make in my carbon steel pan are awesome.
