To feel absolutely disgusted eating eggs

[Mummy2022FT]

I love eggs made any way and this is why this upsets me.

But this morning (and has happened many times before) I was eating egg on toast for breakfast and half way through eating I was like ERRRR because I then realised what eggs actually are.

Anyone else?

totally this.

all natural food thats been eaten since time immemorial is healthier than much of the foods on the supermarket shelf. Especially those advertised as 'healthy' which invariably are far from it

if there are words in the ingredients list that you cannot understand, or there are words you know, precursed by 'reconstituted' or similar, its not real food

My mam has hens and I took one once and they can be stroppy if you take them!

No it’s an ovulation. You as a mammal ovulate 2 weeks before a period where you release an egg. Ovulation is not a period!

I think they’re gross but I still eat them when I need protein. I think eggs milk and flesh from animals is basically the same as it is from a human

Terry Pratchett once described them "as is" in one of his books and I remmeber thinking "hurl", then realised he meant eggs....true....but still tasty.

I don't understand this.

Eggs are great, although tbf the white has to be opaque for me, I don't like it snotty.

Mussels are the other thing people get weird about, but I love them.

I think the only thing I haven't been able to eat was raw sea urchin..... Just no.

Me too - I love the feel and the smell. It moulds to your feet much better than synthetics. But it’s another animal’s actual skin. Bit weird if you start to dwell on it. So I don’t.

It's sounds like something a 12 year old would say.

There’s nothing immature about a different perspective

@Annaishere calling them chicken periods is incorrect and immature.

Yes they are vile. I'm a vegetarian though so I think the things 9 feel about meat I feel about eggs!

It's not a different perspective it's just wrong.

It's what I would have said as a 15 year old vegan 🤣

I eat eggs for breakfast about four days a week now!

Birds don’t have periods. They are birds, not mammals. But other than that you are completely reasonable.

I hate eating eggs because I don't like the smell or texture and I do find them disgusting but don't know why. I wish I did like them because they're easy to cook and an inexpensive source of protein. I can eat them disguised in cakes and even force myself to eat quiche-but not a fried or boiled egg. They're the only thing I really can't eat.

I love tofu being put in the same sentence as UPF. It is just soy beans. Only plant protein with all essential amino acids. High protein, low fat, low carb, nutritious and eaten for centuries in parts of the world.

Be all snobby if you want about processed foods but remember that lots of meat products are also highly processed and being vegetarian doesn’t automatically mean you start shoveling down UPF!

That also has literally nothing to do with eggs being like snot with teeny bits of gross red things in

Yeah, I was surprised to see tofu lumped in there. Maybe PP thinks something that something that has been eaten for over 2000 years still counts as new-fangled?

Can't stand eggs. Revolting. How anyone can eat a runny poached egg without throwing up is beyond me.

This does not apply to eggs at all so I'm not sure what your point is?

YABU.

A hen's period - seriously?!

It's more that lots of people react badly to soy. It doesn't go down well in the guts.

Yeah it's more like a chickens placenta. Well the yolk is the placenta and the white is the amniotic fluid.
