Huh I didn’t know that thanks for informing me

Only fresh pasta is made with eggs, dry pasta typically doesn’t use eggs. It’s semolina durum wheat and water, pushed through copper dies and then dried.

Egg…like literally everything has egg in it. Sorry I got interrupted mid post. But I’m gonna go read all the comments. Some alternative photography processes use egg whites or yolks to sub or apply a layer to the film.

Yeah… morons just love to hang on the buzz word of the day.

I haven’t bought a carton of eggs since 2023 because I refuse to buy them once they’re higher than $2.50 a dozen.
Peck@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
That’s dumb. 2.50 is not a sustainable price. If you get local eggs from a humane farm, they are going to be expensive. It’s just how it is man. If anything, that should cause you using them wiser.

2.39 Euro, free-range, 10 piece. Organic is 3.39, barn 1.99, all incl. 7% VAT. so 12 would be 2.40. Granted, Aldi probably makes 0 profit from the barn ones but there’s only so much they can squeeze farmers. We’ve long since outlawed cages.
Peck@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I don’t know what market is like in Europe or what country specifically you’re talking about. In US, small farm economics require high prices to be sustainable. Not just for eggs, but for produce and meat too. Of course you don’t have to buy from them, but I do. Obviously big farms can sell it for less, but those are the one affected by bird flu.

Sometimes it’s just okay though. To have a commonly understood simplification of a societal problem to meme about with others to share the pain or burden of the problem with.

What do you suggest as an easy healthy source of protein?

The amino acids in plants come from proteins, too

Legumes like beans, lentils, peas, hummus, chickpeas, Oats, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, whole wheat products, Tofu in its various forms, including silk tofu as egg replacement in pancakes, Other “meat substitutes” like seitan or sunflower seed mince, Nuts, nut butters, nut flour, Dairy products such as cottage cheese, joghurt, Soy milk
I mean for real, eggs are super unnecessary for a protein rich or healthy diet. I would argue that unless you literally want to treat yourself with a sunny side up or an omelette you shouldn’t be using eggs at all. I like eggs, but a dozen lasts us (family of 3) a month easily.

No I mean so I can fry it and get fat.
queermunist@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
Trust me, you can fry all those things and get fat.
volvoxvsmarla@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
Oh then try falafels. Jesus I can’t bring myself to make falafels or something similar at home because you literally fry it in oil and you need to do that in order for the raw legumes to be not toxic.
queermunist@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
I like to airfry beans and eat them as a crunchy snack.
For breakfast specifically, oatmeal isn’t a bad choice.
noxypaws@pawb.social 4 weeks ago
What kind(s) of beans? That sounds tasty!
queermunist@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
All kinds! Butter beans turn into chewy morsels, garbanzos become crunchy little nuts, and red/black beans become a little puffy.
I’ll toss them with some oil and chili lime seasoning and eat them by hand, put them on a saucy burrito or veggie wrap, crunch them up into chili, there’s all sorts of ways to eat them!

Seitan is also very high in protein, containing 75g of protein per 100g compared to 10g per 100g for scrambled eggs (although its not a ‘complete’ protein, so it should be balanced out with other sources).

Ignore the legumes suggestion, it’s nasty af and makes most people’s stomachs bloated and inflammed (which gives gas). Eat fish, nuts, artisanal cheeses (very low lactose compared to other cheeses) or even just home made jerky. Good for the brain and no bloating unless you have some diagnosed gut diseases.

Ignore the healthy food, eat old milk and dried mystery meat.
CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
Mystery meat? Are you ignorant? You can make jerky at home with freah meat yourself, that’s why I said homemade jerky. Gotta love vegans downvoting this out of ignorance. Artisanal cheeses are very good for you too. Legumes irritate many people.

You never eat vegetables, do you? Much of the world lives off legumes. Having these issues with their digestion is caused by a poor gut microbiome from eating an extremely low-fiber diet.
CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
I do eat vegetables, simply not legumes as they give me gas and bloating (and I’m not the only one it happens to, it’s so common, there’s a reason comedians joke about eating them and farting). Can we stop pretending legumes don’t cause gas and bloating? 😂 As if me pointing it out means I don’t eat veggies, gtfo here.

A - not everyone has issues with legumes, don’t project your personal issues on everyone. B - just take a beano pill beforehand if you do have issues.
CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
Many people fart with beans and legumes, it’s a minority that doesn’t and why should people take pills to eat food? If the food doesn’t mesh with you body, why force it down? I’ll never understand this. You can live a healthy life without legumes. This legume crusade is getting ridiculous 😂
