    Say I dont want to buy egg whites... I can get eggs for free from where I work but not egg whites... What would the value of the egg while be if I boiled it and took out the yolk? Now its something like Fat-4 Carbs-0 Prot-6 Cal-350... Would I pretty much just take out the fat?

    this is impossible, you can't get 350cal from 6g of protein and 4g of fat

    here is the nutritional information for one egg white(btw, if you remove the yolk the only part left is the egg white)

    Yeah you'd be removing the fat and cholesterol.

    Egg White:
    Pro: 3.6g
    Fat: 0
    Chol: 0

    Caloric intake is negligible in this regard.
