Yolk or No Yolk

[Todd the truth]

yes you can. i do it almost every day

I know you shouldn't eat raw eggs be abuse of salmonella risk, I guess the carton of egg whites is pastrized. You just chug it or mix it in a shake?

Haha... I'm not sure about that!

But, yes. I eat raw whole eggs every day too, not all days as they f*ck with my stomach if I'm not used to them.

Never had a problem.

yes they are pasteurized.

I just drink them straight from the carton.

I love eggs !

Razr was asking where all the hype about the yolk is comming from. Its the fat content and Cholesterol. If i have 6 eggs, i generaly prefer 1 yolk.

Just personal preference.

I haven't read the other replies so I'm sure my opinion is going to be redundant, but I'm giving it anyway!! :P

Egg yolks are great... they contain a ton of nutrients, and the while cholesterol thing is way overblown IMO. Think about it - does the baby chick grow in the white, or the yolk sac? Nuff said!

That being said, the protein to fat ratio is not great by any stretch, and I don't recommend eating them on a 1:1 basis. I'll usually do 1 whole egg to every 2 whites, depending on my dietary fat allotment for the current goal.
