[anaBROLIC]

How unsafe is it really to drink your egg whites raw? do any of yous do it?

[Rob]

I do, all the time

even says on the carton its safe to do.

convenience

exactly.. im lazy

i looked this up before...... i eat 12 egg whites a day......i use a hand held mixer to beat them, then add some milk, tastes like whole milk.......

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now estimate that 1 egg in 20,000 may be contaminated

dont use any eggs with cracks in the shells btw....

[Rob]

nope...i buy the egg whites that are already seperated in the cartons, alot more convenient that cracking eggs and then seperating the yolk/white.

[MILPOLDAN1]

you mean egg beaters, do they make them safer, or is it just like eating right out of the shell.

[Rob]

dont know about safety

all about the convenience for me.

ya i just did that as well but figuring out the price difference in buying a carton saves money and i believe you get more outta the ones in the carton.

I get those egg beaters every day....more convenient and safe.

I get about 80-90 grams of protein per day just from that. I guess that's the equivalent of almost 30 egg whites.

Egg Beaters are pastuerized, they are safer than say plain egg-whites, but even then it isn't really an issue.
