Breakfast joints all suck because they try to act like two eggs is a normal amount and three eggs is a lot of eggs. It's just not true, and it's part of the FDA conspiracy to keep the citizens weak
"a THREE egg omelet? Well I am feeling like a feast today" meanwhile same place will serve you 4 different types of carbs

“Would you like some hash browns with your toast and pancakes?”
I used to be vehemently opposed to breakfast and it was 100% because I had no idea what constituted a reasonable amount of food to eat in the morning
*swimming through a bowl of grits* is one more egg too much to ask

I’m pretty sure the Original Pancake House I used to go to in Fort Lee, NJ did a 6-egg fluffy omelette. I miss those things.

I submit that 3 eggs is a baseline amount of eggs

I feel like a Thromelet should is standard, but then again I fear that I’m missing out if I don’t have a Fomolet.

Meanwhile the capitalist breakfast places want to force us to make do with TWEGGS

Weird that they're so stingy with eggs when they're so cheap compared to other breakfast items like sausage....oooh I just realized they can make a much bigger profit charging for additional eggs than additional bacon, etc

Standard omelet is three

depending on the fillings it might be acceptable

This. Omelets are the sandwich of the egg world in there can be many factors that influence the final configuration, from meat and dairy additions to cooking method.

What size is your standard egg? I realise this is quite obvious, but big eggs have more egg than medium eggs (which I assume are small eggs, since nobody's tried to sell me "small eggs"). A three small eggs omelette is about the same heft as a two large egg one.

If I had to guess, it was a three egg omelet. Just really enjoyed all of this guy's egg posts before.

they're perfect. almost as good at eggposting as Condorcet (outed as a nobelman in hiding during the French Revolution on account of ordering a dozen egg omelet).

It depends. French Omelettes only have one, as you know.

I like six eggs with my ham when starting on a journey. Fried, not poached. And mind you don't break em.

Its a quote from The Hobbit. But close enough.

To be fair, it sounded like something you might say on your own.

Yeah I can see that. I definitely seem like a "six eggs with my ham" kinda guy.

Okay will that be cash, credit? Or do you want us to just bill your insurance?

an egg is something like 60 calories too which isn't really a lot
they just have a lot of cholesterol (albeit healthy-ish cholesterol)
Avatar
Only mass produced eggs do though, that's why I switched to free range (non vegetarian diet) eggs. Those have a third less cholesterol and more good stuff. I did the same for dairy products if I can, only grass fed cows. Turns out if you let animals eat their natural diet.You get healthy food
interesting - I buy Whole Foods eggs which I believe are a lot better than the weird white-shell homogenized variety
Avatar
I look for specifically free range and no diet restrictions. Because chickens are omnivores. Also cage free just means they are in a big warehouse o.o; What I look for is a rich orange yolk, it holds together better and has a stronger flavor.

honestly it's Big Chicken that's behind this

When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large
