I like yelllow part of the egg. I feel the white part is blank and it doesn't have a taste. My brother likes the white part and we used to exchange the parts of egg when I used to stay with my family. I like the white part one when it is added in fried rice. What about you?

i like the yellow part since it is high in protien but eating all the time is not advisable because it i high in cholesterol.egg white is better and healthy that is proven.it is also useful in beauty regimen especially on the face.have a nice day.

hi amyson, i like both--the egg yolk and the white part of an egg. It compliments witheach other but the egg yolk has more nutrients. you're right, the eggwhite can be used as mask. so good for the skin.

Thanks for sharing your views both of you. Yes, yellow part has more nutirents, but I will make sure that I am not eating too much egg. I only have egg once in a week or at the most twice. Cholestrol is a big issue and some of my family members are having the problem. I am avoiding most of the food items that contin too much oil as a part of avoiding pimples. So, I think it will control my cholestrol.

you're right friend it has lots of cholesterol esepcially the quail eggs (are you familiar of quail eggs? small but terrible in terms of its cholesterol content) but twice a week is fine.

I like the yolk also or the yellow part. Whenever I eat a sunny side up egg, I always save the yolk for last.. lol. Even with hard boiled eggs, I save the yolk, cause I love eating it last. as they say, save the best for last. Hehehehe.

I also save the yellow part when I go for sunny side up or bull's eye. I like to take the yellow part half cooked. So, that I can break the yellow part gently after having the white part so that the yellow fluid flows in my plate. I put some more pepper and salt into it and have it. Yummy!! I feel like having one now. Thanks for the response.

Hi daliaj, I too like the white part even there is less protein than yellow part. My elder son likes the yellow part and younger likes the white part. Both of them exchange the white and yellow in between them. If anybody have cholesterol problem then they should avoid the yellow part.

Nice to see another person who loves yellow. I am very fond of yellow part of the egg. I also used to do it when my Mom forced me to eat the egg totally. If I have two eggs, I eat all the white first and keep both the yellow parts and eat them slowly enjoying it. Thanks for sharing your views with mylotters. Happy mylotting.

Hi daliaj, I like both yellow and white parts actually, I would prefer beating the egg before frying so the taste would be even. I prefer frying it with tomato and onions for a better and healthier taste. Good Day!

when its omelet, i like both. you cannot separate them anyway. when fried directly into the pan, i used to put extra salt and pepper to the whole egg (white and yellow), so all are eaten. my children like the white one's don't really. thats why i have to eat all the proteins and fats and cholesterol that comes with it.

I also like both the parts when it is omlet or scarmbled egg. I like to put a lot of pepper and add salt a little more prominent in omlet and scrambled egg. If it is sunny side up or bull's eye, I like to keep the yellow part half cooked. So, that I can break the yellow part and the fuild flows in my plate. Yummy. I want it now.

I guess it depends on how it is cooked. If it's scrambled then I like both. If it's hard boiled I like the white of the egg. What's funny is that it was the opposite for me back when I was growing up. I actually preferred the yolk whenever it was hard boiled, but it is too strong for me now. Happy mylotting!

I love eggs too; it can be mixed in a fried rice, or baked in a cake or cookies, I still love it the same. In fact, I think eating 1 egg every morning for breakfast (a boiled one or half boiled one) is definitely good for health. There are lots of nutrients that can be gotten in an egg, but if you must take aplenty, avoid the egg yolk. Like take more egg whites than egg yolks. I love boiled eggs, because the taste is rather more delicious than a fried one. There are tips that I think some singers use; they take the egg white and drink it from there. Good for the voice and stuff like that. Heard that egg white is really good for the facial skin. I think the ladies would love it. Low budget and certainly economical. Good topic here..

I too like the yoke. It is much tastier. But when i am free with no work to do, i sometimes love to full boil and egg and slowly suck the white bit by bit. It gives a lovely feeling when it reaches the throat and then flows down effortlessely tx

Hi Daliaj, Egg is part of my daily diet especially for breakfast. i like both, the egg white and the egg yolk. I used to have sunny-side up for breakfast. my son only loves eating the egg white and gives me the egg yolk. for him to eat both, i make a scrambled egg and likes it.

hello daliaj, I like yellow part of the egg, I don't like the white part. I think the white part has less nutrition, and does not taste as good as the yellow part.

I like the yellow part as well cause it has more taste than the white one. But...they say that the white one is healthier. So...you know, try to eat the white part once in a while as well.

When I was a kid, I like the white part. When I grew up, I like the yellow. Up to now, I still like the yellow more then the white, but I try to limit it because of cholesterol in it.

My favorite part is the yellow. I feel the same way you do about the white part no taste at all. That is why I drown it with pepper. When people say they only eat egg whites that just turns me off.

I think each part of an egg has its own specialty and good taste. But we should know that yellow egg contains high cholesterols. So if you have hypertension, or high cholesterols level on your blood, i think you shouldn't consume a lot of yellow eggs. Actually with two yellow eggs we will got over daily cholesterols. So yellow egg even though it's delicious but it has high risk if we consume it uncontrolled. So far i haven't read anything bad about white egg because it has no any bad thing inside. Good luck and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

i like every part of the egg, i like expecially the yellow part when is in the rice. We have to say that the yellow is fill of bad fat and it's dangerous for oure heart, the white part is fill of proteins and is so soft for the stomac, so this one can be used to build muscles.
