Which Came First?…
I actually don’t really care which came first, the chicken or the egg. (Although for the record, I’m on the chicken’s side. Who else would have incubated the egg?) Anyways, the point is, I don’t like chicken but I do like eggs. Or I did.
The other night I made some soy chorizo with egg whites, and, while it tasted good… I felt weird about eating it.
In my head I was telling myself “Stop being weird, they’re just egg whites.” And then the other half of my brain was like “Ew… gross… you’re eating egg whites. That’s like… an unborn chicken… blehhhhhh” (Wait, you don’t have these sort of arguments in your head?) The depressing part is this dish tasted good!
It was about 1/3 cup TJ’s soy chorizo with about 1/3 cup of egg whites, stir fried in a little olive oil. I think I stirred in some nutritional yeast as well.
So now I’m trying to decide what to do with eggs. For some reason, they don’t really bother me when they are in things, but there is something about eating them “whole” that kind of freaks me out. Does that make any sense?!
I want to like eggs. They’re such a good source of protein and nutrients. But I think eggs and I are going to take a break for awhile. (Besides, me & flaxseed eggs are tight, yo.)
Do you have any weird attitude toward certain foods? Am I the only crazy person out there? Do you eat eggs?

I do eat eggs and I’ve honestly never thought about it that way! haha
WHAT>>> where is this soy chorizo– coolest thing EVER!
Trader Joe’s! It’s super delicious!
I am incredibly weirded out by chicken. I love steak, but chicken is so gross to me. The texture is awful, and it’s too often that I bite into something mysterious. When I do eat chicken, I cut it into teeny pieces so I know I won’t bite anything gross. Pretty much, I think I need to stop eating chicken.
You should EXACTLY like me in high school!!! If I DID eat chicken I had to tear it up into tiny pieces to be sure I didn’t eat anything gross! So I just stopped eating it all together!
I love eggs but I do have some weird attitudes about some foods. For instance, I like pies but I hate the pie crust?? Unless it is an untraditional crust that is flaky and soft.
This scares me to death. I totally cannot ever even contemplate eating something that looks like this.
Then again, I’m super picky and eat the exact same things every single day with absolutely no variation whatsoever.
So I am not the best one to give my opinion

Hahahahaha this literally made me laugh out loud. I KNOW it looks like someone vomited on my plate… but the chorizo flavor was delicious. (The eggs, clearly not so much.)
I totally have those arguments in my head – I haven’t been able to eat eggs for the past few months because of those damn arguments! haha I love the taste – but I just can’t eat them!
Isn’t it crazy?! I swear, in another few years, I’ll be stuck with nothing but carrots!
Eggs are kind of weird… I’m liking them less and less these days. I used to love them too. who knows whats going on – we just love veggies more!!!!!
I think that must be it!!! haha
I think I commented on this post in the wrong spot… but you’ll probably figure that out when you see it haha!
Don’t care for eggs myself and never did actually. Nowadays I also am a little morally against the whole egg industry, but that’s another discussion, lol
BUT, I do think the egg came first 😉
Hate eggs – Disgusting with a capital D. If they’re in baked goods, fine, but scrambled, sunny side, omelet, quiches, scrambles, french toast..no way.
