Do you love them or loathe them. Personally I can't abide them (horrible, disgusting slimey things) It is a struggle to even be in the same room as someone eating one.

Raw eggs disgust me to some extent, fully-cooked ones I don't mind. But if you want disgusting, I recommend the experience of being force-fed fish roes. That happened to me when I was about 7 years old.

I only like scrambled eggs, and only cooked just right, so they're not slimy but not tough, either. Any other kind of egg, I can't stand.

I like hard boiled eggs, as well as omelettes, scrambled eggs or fried with salty meat.

Love eggs.
Poached with runny yolks is my favourite.
They have a lovely, velvety texture.

My favourite is boiled eggs with perfectly solidified whites and perfectly runny yolks. Difficult but not impossible to achieve. It's annoying that the Web is full of conflicting advice on the safety of this delicacy.

Likes: Hard-boiled eggs, scrambled eggs (relatively 'dry'), fried eggs (solid yolk)

Dislikes: Soft-boiled eggs, fried eggs (runny yolk), slushy scrambled eggs.

Liked eggs but don't eat them anymore due to the killing of all the male chicks...

I salute your compassion. I hope one day soon I'll emulate it.

Yep yep yep!

I like them in every form unless they are way too undercooked. But my fav. one is hard boiled eggs.

I eat things cooked with em like baked goods but I don't like eggs by themselves or on something. They upset my stomach & I don't like the taste.

I love eggs, especially fried sunny-side up, with bacon or sausage and toast. But I usually don't eat more than two eggs a week because I can't erase all the years of brainwashing about the yolks being full of fat and cholesterol. But if you remove the yolks then you have what is basically like eating a sponge unless you're using the whites to make meringue or cake instead.

Both my parents are overweight and it's totally due to their daily, very high, calorie intake and nothing else. But when it comes to eggs they are almost offended when you tell them they are actually good for you and less dangerous than most of the things you eat.

I'm okay with scrambled, hardboiled or an omelet. But they're not a favorite food.

I could easily go the rest of my life never eating another one.

I love them. They are my favorite breakfast food.
