Is it an 11 egg omelette too much?

[ShakyBake]

Would you say an 11 egg omelette, roughly 3 times per week, is a lot/too much for 1 person?

Not if you're a grizzly bear fattening up for winter hibernation 😂😂

Dh is a 6’6 very muscly gym goer with a fast metabolism and an huge appetite, and he has 5/6 eggs a day maximum in an omelette sometimes; so I really cant imagine who on earth would need 11.

Old, old advice. There’s no limit on the number of eggs recommended nowadays.

If he can eat an omelette of that size and his overall diet is appropriate to his needs, crack on.

....now he's roughly the size of a barge!!!!@

What do you do with the last egg in the box @ShakyBake? Are you allowed that one?! Why has he hit on 11, does he think the round dozen is gluttonous?

Also, is he Mr Strong?

😂 😂 😂

Now I have that song in my head, thanks

As mentioned upthread…

Imagine the smell of his farts

Yes. Nuts.

Oh man! 😂

For everyone querying why 11....(Sorry OP, couldn't resist.)

My dp has 8 a day- at least. Seems fine on it. Bowels unremarkable and in fine shape.

Absolutely ridiculous! My husband (who is a big man) usually has a 2 egg omelette or 3 eggs if he is extra hungry

Perhaps he should get an ostrich.

Too much cholesterol if he's eating all the yolks. But for a meal, 11 eggs is about 800 calories. Which isn't outrageous for a main meal for most blokes. If he's after the protein, he could just replace half or more of the yolks with more whites and he'd avoid most of the bad aspects and increase his protein intake. Should have a salad with it too though, for the roughage, as even 4 or 5 egg yolks is fairly high in cholesterol for one meal.

All those querying the pan size - do you only ever make single portion omelettes?

I make 12-16 egg omelettes (not 11,13 or 15 - eggs aren’t cooked in odd numbers fgs) and we have a quarter each for lunch with a salad (to be clear there are 4 of us).

It’s fine, OP

I would t eat as much but 33 eggs a week is not to much and it will cause no ill health at all . Eggs are very healthy

Fast forward to 2.20 minutes! 😆

Not when you eat 11 in once sitting. It is far too much choleseral, fat, and calories. 2000 mg of cholesteral in fact, and almost 1000 calories. All in one sitting. No way is this 'healthy.'

It was eggtraordinary

I think we've est that eggs do not affect cholesterol. Fats are no longer demonised. There's some very outdated opinions still doing the rounds.

11 eggs in one omelette for one person is disgusting gluttony.

I do but only a 10 egg one.

Maybe an 11 egg omelet is all that can be crammed into the frying pan.

Far too much.
