Hi guys,

I came across this when having a general browse on the web and wondered if it is any good? Would it be better for me than eating whole eggs?

Also can you drink this raw? Should I worry about getting ill if I did?

we've had egg whites in the US for a few years now...you poor UK people.

all it should be is egg whites. a machine separates the yolks.

check the ingredients for other stuff like salt or flavoring..shouldn't be there (EggBeaters is just egg whites, some spices ,and some starch to thicken it up to mimic whole eggs).

Some egg whites are pasteurized, and those are safe to drink. if its not pasteurized, don't drink it, or you risk salmonella.

Thanks, they say it is tested for salmonela and is heat treated, which probably means pasturised. I will order some and see what the bottle says though. Want to be sure.

Is it best just to have egg whites and not have the yolk? What is bad thats in the yolk and what is good thats in the yolk?

Thanks

there's nothing 'bad' about the yolk really. it is where all the fat in an egg is stored, as well as the cholesterol. it also has about 2.5-3g of protein.

people who have cholesterol problems, especially a genetic predisposition to high cholesterol (the bad kind) tend to shy away from egg yolks.

All I do, is use all the whites and some of the yolks when I make my daily scrambled eggs. usually its 1/3 of the eggs being used that get their yolks tossed in. So, 6 egg whites, and 2 yolks. It gives you a more normal tasting omlette or scrambled eggs...as egg whites lack flavor and body since they are just straight protein.

sometimes I cook up the other yolks and give em to my dogs. so i don't feel like i'm wasting 15 cents worth of egg yolks
