  I’m also intrigued as to why they think hard boiling vs poaching the egg has any bearing on its calorie content.

    I heard some foods have more calories when they’re cooked versus uncooked because it puts them in a form that is easier for your body to process, but I don’t think it’s anywhere as granular as hard boiled versus poached lol.

      Yeah, that’s plausible for cooking in general, but boiling vs poaching is a pretty fine distinction.

    Pochwd has high probability you will eat the yolk which has the highest calories of all the egg

    Hard boiled you can just take out the solid yolk out and not eat it.

      I keep thinking of the old rolling ball on the bottom of mice when I see hardboiled yolk

        you are over cooking your eggs if they come out with grey yolks

      Why would you do that? Are there people who prefer the white? If so, they need to be my friends, we would be compatible.

        On a hard boiled egg? yes. HB yolks taste like butter chalk to me. I don’t mind yolks in things, but their individual flavor and texture in HB is lacking to me.

        I hate the yolk unless it’s mixed into something. If I am eating hard boiled eggs, I usually give the yolks to someone else.

        Are there people who don’t prefer the white??? I love boiled egg whites so much I could just have a bowl of them next to me if I wasn’t so lazy to boil and peel

        Many reasons really. health reasons is the first one that comes to mind. Others don’t like the texture, while being fine with the runny yolk using it as a sauce in other situations. The reduced surface area also heightens the flavor of salt, so you end up getting less sal per egg overall

        In any case yeah. There are people who prefer the white part as well
