Eggs that are left over

Don't think leftover figures into it, but if you enjoy the company of others eating eggs can be a bad idea...

 

[JoeKing]

If you mean these, then I agree

If you're talking about regular eggs... then get out of here!! Egg sandwiches are some of the goodiess bestest things out there!!

 

[ironcrotch]

egg salad sandwiches are indeed the best.

eggs gives me gas.

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

...should be OK if they were refrigerated.

My Chinese parents told me this when I was young. They don't anymore. Or maybe that's because we've never had any egg leftovers for a long, long time...

u get a big one

 

[moshquerade]

left over eggs or eggs over easy?

 

[dighn]

cuz they tend to go bad without refrigiration!?

 

[So]

Maybe it's like Jews and Muslims with pork, an old idea left over from before refrigeration when it was dangerous to eat such things.

myth: cooked/raw eggs that are over a day old will cause potency problem among men.

Yes. I dislike tradition when it impedes pragmatism.
