Target is too upscale for me.

Not really!! As long as you have enough Lactaid and you eat your share of vegetables and going to the restroom is hardly a problem.

30 seconds. I remember one of the big science writers said that was enough to kill most of the salmonella risk,which is why I do it. I suppose you could take them to lightly poached, which would be just a tad longer then whip or blend them with a bit of milk if you wanted more of the cooked benefit.

As long as your eggs are extremely hot or extremely cold, the salmonella thing isn't an issue. Back in college, my roommate's mini-fridge would almost always freeze my eggs solid. So blending them with cold milk made absolutely sure there was no salmonella for me.

you do know fats and oils are way better for digestion that fibre dont you?

I made no claim to the contrary. Besides, with consuming a dozen eggs a day, lack of fats and oils is hardly an issue.

Clearance sales are a wonderful thing. A local store just opened near my house with a HUGE BARGAIN on large eggs  So, each pallet of 2.5-dozen eggs was on sale for $0.97. Basically that's 5 dozen eggs for just under $2.

Look for stores that have eggs that are reaching their "Best Buy" date of June 10. The prices gets slashed by 75% or more. Last month, I racked up on jumbo eggs for $0.98 a dozen. And since I have tomorrow off (with pay  ), I'm going to grab a few more dozen eggs and make more room in the fridge.

Trust me, out of date eggs can make you very ill...

This is far too much effort to put on eggs lol.

The jumbo eggs I got last month, that had a "Best By" date of June 8, are almost all GONE! And we still have a week before we even hit the month of June.

Trust me! Most of the eggs I just got will be LONG GONE before they reach the "Best By" date.

Plus, I always have the option of freezing them, just as I do my meat and milk I buy.

[IroNat]

I have new respect for McWay because of his love for eggs.

If you were stupid enough to eat them

Thank you.

Eggs have always been a favorite of mine, one of the "Holy Trinity" of foods if you will. I've also stated that whoever came up with the idea of separating the yolk and just eating the white needs to be horse-whipped!!

It was over 30 years ago that I started on my serious mass diet in college to get to 200 lbs. Based on Vince Gironda's ideas, I made what I called "Poor Man's Met-Rx". Again, it was two shakes, each consisting of 16 fl oz of milk or half-n-half and 6 eggs. One was for breakfast; and the other I consumed before bedtime as my last meal of the day.

January 1996, I weighed 189; by May, I'd beef up to 210. Just regular food (which includes those "Poor Man's Met-Rx" shakes) and weight gainer (Mega Mass 2000, at the time) got the job done back then.

I have a hard time believing you ate eggs in any appreciable quantity from a mini-fridge in a college dorm

Update: I had 2 eggs today.

Same, but cup of whites too (nh).

Egg on a Dave’s Killer Bagel is delicious.

Again, I didn't "eat" them. I drank them by mixing them with milk or half-n-half. Refer to my "Poor Man's Met-Rx" post.

5 eggs fried with bacon for me today.

Just 2 minutes ago I ate five hard boiled eggs.

On a side note,back in the day when eggs cost .99 per dozen I bought 3 cases,froze 2 of them and when I "attempted" to eat them they tasted weird............so I tossed them out......there are some things that just don`t freeze well.

That just makes things worse and harder to believe.  Look, I apologize, this is just the way my mind works but what did you "drink"?  Like 2-3 a day, maybe more?  That's approaching 2 dozen eggs a week in a dorm mini-fridge. 

I know it was 30 years ago, but how long did your roommate let you keep this disgusting rotating frozen egg shake festival going?

I drank two a day: Once in the morning for breakfast and once in the evening before bed.

Plus, the storage in the mini-fridge wasn't an issue. Back in the day, I would buy a dozen eggs from Publix on my way back from the gym to school during the evening. That was much easier when I could take the bus for free, using my college ID.

Before bed, I made my shake with powdered milk and six eggs. I drank it and washed out my blender. I stored the rest of the eggs in the mini-fridge overnight. When I woke up the next morning, I made another shake with the remaining six eggs, and that was breakfast.

The only time I bought more than a dozen eggs was on Tuesdays, since I didn't (and still don't) train on Wednesdays.  I don't see how storing 1-2 dozen eggs in a mini-fridge is an issue.
