How many Eggs Do you Eat In A week?

I read somewhere that eating too many eggs in a week is not good and then there was a discussion here on mylot that we should try to take 1 egg daily so that means 7-10 eggs in a week is not a bad option. Of course you can eat more but I am considering to have in moderation too. That's why I try to never go above the max 10 eggs in a week theory. How many Eggs do you eat in a week?

@Butterfingers Yes, you are right. Many of my friends also do the same. Actually eggs are so easy to make that sometimes people tend to forget they are non veg.

It depends. A normal week may be a dozen or so but at holiday dinners, I've been known to eat ten in one sitting if they're deviled. I don't think too much about it. I've been around so long that peanut butter has been both good and bad for you several different times. Eggs too. Coffee too. Moderation in everything seems to be the key.

I do not eat eggs every day, but considering that eggs are also in some food we consume I would say 5 to 6 per week.

@Butterfingers but minus the yolk I think it should be fine. Will cholesterol still be an issue?

I do not eat eggs every day, so I am not sure what my proper answer would be. I do eat eggs several times a month though. Most often scrambled. And when I make a batch of scrambled I usually use about 10 eggs, but of course I do not eat all of them by myself.
