    It looks like we've all got different info on egg whites--I've heard 17 cals and 3.5g protein for a 50g egg.

    As you guys have pointed out it is different from egg whites from an actual egg, to the egg whites in a carton. The cartons I buy have the same nutrition facts as dalcowbags........but a regular egg white from an egg has like 3-4g of protein and about 12-16 calories depending on size.


    I think that egg white carton is messed up too, if it is 5g of protein, it should be 20 cals. Makes me wonder what else is in them that isn't on the lable??
