    Yes. Eggs are awesome. I throw a fried egg on top of about half my meals, and scrambled or poached egg on toast is great. Eggs Benedict may be my favourite dish ever.

      Eggs Benedict is well awesome.

      My fave is a variation on that… Eggs California. Avocado, tomato on English muffins with poached eggs and hollandaise.

      whooooo…

    • Eggs Benedict is the best! When I try a new breakfast place it’s the dish I get in order to judge the new spot.

      I actually have a silly breakfast blog. I’m trying to have breakfast in all 351 towns & cities in my state. I’m at 137. However, there are plenty of small towns that do not have a breakfast place. So, I won’t reach 351.

    • Rotten eggs = horrible awful smell
    • “eggy farts” = horrible smell, sometimes labelled the same as rotten eggs
    • Uncooked egg, e.g just cracked open = doesn’t smell of anything
    • a nicely hard/medium boiled egg = nice “buttery” smell
    • any egg cooked with butter or oil [e.g omelette, fried or scrambled] = Very nice combination of smells, half smells of whatever you cooked it in, half smells like the buttery smell of a boiled egg.

    As for taste, yeah. It is largely dependent on whether you cooked them properly though. I also really like picking up on the taste of egg in a cake.

    Growing up, I didn’t like the taste of the yoke, and had a texture issue with the way most eggs were cooked. Supposedly I was also allergic but I think that was just a convenience. Now I love them. Every style

    A big part of it was growing out of the texture issue. By the time I did that, I found had long dance grown out of any taste issues. But it’s also important that I was exposed to more ways to cook more eggs by more people. For whatever reason I was open to trying new eggs until I eventually went back and liked old eggs

    Except egg salad. There’s just something about slimy egg bits drowned in a tub of mayo that seems too unpleasant to even look at
