People cook egga in oil? Gross. Butter or nothin!
Im an over-easy guy. Can't deal with the runny whites in sunny side up, but liquid yolk is the best. Mixes so well with other breakfast foods!
Corned beef hash with 2 over easy eggs right on top. Cut the eggs so the yolk goes all over mix it all up with some hot sauce and pepper. Godly.
did you use sour cream? i cant understand what hes saying when he puts the half tablespoon of something into the eggs.
Spinach, onion, bell pepper, mushroom (I personally don't like them but others do), tomatoes (yes not a veggie), and avocado.I said OVER EASY!
Coconut oil is farce. No evidence has promoted it over conventional oils.
Really sad to see people avoiding eggs for misguided dietary advice from misguided people. Eggs are just about one of the best foods around.
I eat between two and eight just about every single day.
How much damage is done when you fart?
Yeah he said creme fraiche but I used sour cream since we have that in the fridge all the time. Did not hamper the deliciousness.did you use sour cream? i cant understand what hes saying when he puts the half tablespoon of something into the eggs.
those plus corn oil. It depends on the heat though.Really sad to see people avoiding eggs for misguided dietary advice from misguided people. Eggs are just about one of the best foods around.

Wait, what do you consider "conventional oils?" My personal go-to oils are butter, lard, coconut, and olive.

I also tried the Gordon Ramsey way this morning thanks to this thread and definitely will be doing this more often!
As for the health issues, I actually asked this question to a nutritionist friend of mine a few weeks ago. She said generally you're only suppose to have 1 egg a day. Quick google search indicates that it's because the yolk contains ~184mg of cholesterol (that's 60% based on 2000 calories a day). If you proceed to eat just whites after, I imagine it's fine.
She did say generally. She studies in the field, and I'd sure take her word over yours. Anyways I'm not trying to convince anyone here.Except that dietary cholesterol doesn't really have a huge effect on blood cholesterol. What an expert of a nutritionist your friend is.

I used to eat 3 eggs sunny side up/over easy with 4 slices of toast. I was killing myself with all the bread. So now I just do a scramble and add whatever I have in the fridge (jalapeños, cheese, bacon, ham, chicken, steak etc...) and sometimes put it in a tortilla.
Any recommendations of vegetables to add for someone who is not a big veggie eater?
Doesn't it not really matter as long as you take the yokes out?

I eat about 3-5 eggs a day and have very healthy cholesterol levels.Anecdotal, but my cholesterol was low after being on low-carb and eating 3 or 4 eggs a day.
Good for you then but GENERALLY professionals will recommend you one a day.You should let your "nutritionist" friend know that dietary cholesterol does not have an effect on our cholesterol levels. Once again, eggs contain polyunsaturated fats. Which can actually lower cholesterol. Which is why if you read the thread you'll see other people have the same results:
I eat about 3-5 eggs a day and have very healthy cholesterol levels.
Recent research has shown that moderate egg consumption—up to one a day—does not increase heart disease risk in healthy individuals (1, 2) and can be part of a healthy diet.
This research doesn’t give the green light to daily three-egg omelets. While a 2008 report from the ongoing Physicians’ Health Study supports the idea that eating an egg a day is generally safe for the heart, it also suggests that going much beyond that could increase the risk for heart failure later in life
When deciding whether to include eggs in your diet, consider the recommended daily limits on cholesterol in your food:
If you are healthy, it's recommended that you limit your dietary cholesterol to less than 300 milligrams (mg) a day.
If you have cardiovascular disease, diabetes or a high low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") blood cholesterol level, you should limit your dietary cholesterol to less than 200 mg a day.
http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/eggs/"In order to keep your LDL and your risk for heart disease low," the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) argues, "you should start on [a] heart-healthy diet" that includes fewer than 300 milligrams (mg) of cholesterol per day from all sources.
Good for you then but GENERALLY professionals will recommend you one a day.

I'm all for believing otherwise if you've given sufficient information to back up your opinion, which you have now. But like you said, seeing how they contradict their opinions so often, I would, personally, rather stick to a not so crazy amount. Guess I won't feel as bad for eating two a day now.A 2007 study of nearly 10,000 adults demonstrated no correlation between moderate egg consumption and cardiovascular disease or strokes, except in the subpopulation of diabetic patients who presented an increased risk of coronary heart disease.
There are studies from 2012 that contradict the studies in the links you provided. The most recent study your links cite to is 2008.
The most recent study on this issue, published in 2013, concludes that there is no link between egg consumption and heart disease/stroke.
As for the recommendations of professionals, I've had 2 doctors tell me that I can eat all the eggs I want because of recent findings in regards to how our body handles dietary cholesterol.
If dietary cholesterol worked how you believe it does, then I would be consuming 300% based on my 2k calories per day. Given that I have healthy cholesterol, you can see how your reasoning is problematic...
But I don't blame you for believing a friend over someone online. And who knows, given how often the medical community changes their mind, for all I know in a few docs will conclude that eggs somehow effect estrogen and are turning me into a female or some shit or some other crazy shit.
EDIT: fixed links

This is why I generally find it difficult to argue too intensely on this issue.
In trying to prove my point, I cite to the medical community and their journals. But these journals are inconsistent as fuck and seem to constantly contradict themselves.
In the past 10 or so years, I think they've gone back and forth +10 times in regards to whether red wine has any health benefits, whether butter will kill us, whether we are getting enough iodine through table salt on its own, whether the mercury in fish will kills us (and whether only predatory fish pose this risk, assuming there is one), whether organic fruits/vegetables are superior, whether organic dairy products are superior, etc.
But even if we are to synthesize the links you provided with the links I provided, 2 eggs surely won't kill you

While it’s true that egg yolks have a lot of cholesterol—and so may weakly affect blood cholesterol levels—eggs also contain nutrients that may help lower the risk for heart disease, including protein, vitamins B12 and D, riboflavin, and folate.
A solid body of research shows that for most people, cholesterol in food has a much smaller effect on blood levels of total cholesterol and harmful LDL cholesterol than does the mix of fats in the diet.
WOW.
Scrambled in coconut oil, salsa, and turmeric and topped with avocado and black pepper wrapped in a soft taco is pretty good. Turmeric and eggs go together quite well imo.
