To eat chicken and egg together?

[Workyticket]

I make jar salads for work - this week I've got cucumber, tomto, lettuce, boiled egg and diced chicken breast

3 difficult colleagues have commented that it's weird to eat chicken and egg in the same meal

It's never occurred to me - am I weird / normal?

Yes, it’s weird to eat a dead animal and something that came out of its butt

Cloaca.
It's not a butt.

Ask them if they ever eat a chicken and mayonnaise sandwich. Or have a chicken burger from McD.

Why

Is it just as weird to have sausages and bacon on a breakfast as it's two parts of the same animal?

@tobee I know this is you. You’ve name changed haven’t you?? It. Is. Wrong. 🤯
Come back from the dark side before it’s too late 💣🐤🍳💣💥☠️🪦

No - i pour it into a bowl to eat at work.

I’ve never thought about it. I’m veggie so wouldn’t eat chicken in any dish but now I think about it I’ve never seen them in a meal together! Having said that who cares? It’s much weirder to be one of those people who comments on other people’s meals. If I wanted feedback I’d go on Hell’s Kitchen.

Plus surely there are dishes that use beef and also dairy? Like a cheeseburger. So what could be the problem?

Tesco do a chicken and broccoli salad with half a boiled egg in it

I don't see how it's any weirder than eating the chicken and egg separately. As others have said, there are lots of dishes like chicken egg-fried rice, or lasagne with both beef and milk.
Would your colleagues be equally disgusted by eating coriander seeds and coriander leaves in the sane meal? Different parts of the same plant's life cycle shock horror!

Tell them they could even more efficiently eat egg and poultry together by ordering balut for the next work do.
Balut is a fertilised duck egg, incubated to a specific stage of development and then boiled, so that you can eat egg and duck (embryo) meat in the same mouthful!

Oh there's always one.
