I've found as I've grown older, I just don't really like eggs as much as I used to, except for the yolk. I always liked the yolk, and like it more now, but I feed the egg whites to the dogs. I guess before I liked both white and yolk more equally.
I also used to like omelets, and scrambled eggs, but find myself feeding those to the dogs now too. I guess pretty much anything that's an egg white or mixed thereof, I don't like it anymore.
Is this a normal part of growing older? Has anybody else experienced an increasing dislike of egg white, whether in combination with greater like of yolk or not? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTzA_xesrL8 |

Changes in what you prefer will change with age. It'll happen because of aging alone, but the things you eat/drink will also alter it. I've noticed this with pineapple and some other foods. I used to hate fresh pineapple, but now I kinda like it. I also noticed some radical changes after I stopped drinking alcohol and coffee and when I changed a oil/fat heavy diet to a low fat/fresh vegetable heavier one. Now the taste of oil/fat is almost sickening to me, while before i didn't mind it at all. |

I'm wondering too if there's something different about the eggs, like the way they're being raised and such that imparts a different flavor onto the eggs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTzA_xesrL8 |

I like eggs OK, as long as I don't think about the source too much. I lost my taste for milk and cheese after living in the Pacific and Japan for a while. They aren't much part of the diet around there. After not having them for a while, the texture of milk and the smell of cheese kind of bug me now.
Along the same lines, in Japan they say everybody is either in the Sweets Party or the Spicy Party. Like, divided as to whether they would rather have a sweet snack or a salty/spicy snack. Most regular alcohol drinkers are Spicy Party members-- it's an easy way to spot them. If you help someone when they're in trouble, they will remember you when they're in trouble again.

In the last couple years i've seen cats, and heard of several other cats, refusing to eat certain chicken and turkey. They take a whif and walk away. Highly unusual. Wouldn't surprise me at all if there's some nasty new chemical which has been introduced to the breeding process.

Just dropped by to say that I love these threads...this is exactly the kind of topic I'D like to see more of in OOPE.
I still like eggs, but I never ate very much of them. But I used to eat a lot of honey as a kid, nowadays I only use honey for barbecue sauce or chili. Morgan Freeman ordered me to self-destruct....now what's your excuse? |

Biggest change for me over the years is liking sweet foods less and spicy foods more.
Jeffrey Steingarten's preface to The Man Who Ate Everything details how, when he learned he was to be a food critic, he forced himself to like foods he did not already like in order to judge fairly. I recommend that book to any potential foodie.
Another Ann Amelie: Kim Chee was a disappointment for me. I expected from its reputation that it would be awesome or awful, and it was...fine, I guess. Research continues. |

Maybe try organic eggs from a local farmers market or something to see if they also put you off? Man, that's kind of scary. Human food rejected in favor of cat food, which is largely grain and bone meal anyway. Don't know where you are Bane, but in the U.S. poultry is pretty flavorless. The poor bird just live in small cages and get no exercise to tone their muscles (meat). And they just eat grain-- no foraging for bugs and grass to round out their diet and make them tasty birds. And of course there are the growth hormones. Umm-umm, yummy.
Stuff like this is why I had higher hopes for 12/21/2012. If you help someone when they're in trouble, they will remember you when they're in trouble again.

I'm in Canada, so pretty much the same practices you have in the states.
But that stuff has been going on for decades, and i've never seen a cat turn up its nose at any of the meat. They're normally insatiable. "The nice thing about quotes is that they give us a nodding acquaintance with the originator which is often socially impressive." ~Kenneth Williams |

On topic of eggs...
I still like them just as much now at 42 as I did growing up. I just don't eat them as often as I used too. Me and the family will eat them just about any old way. Expect the kid refuses to egg soft boiled eggs. I like mine a bit runny.
Where we live, we are able to get a fair amount of food from local sources. Some of it is organic, and some not, but we find that it does taste better then what is available in the supermarkets. Free range chicken, as least to me, does taste better. But it is a bit more.
For me, as I get older, I have noticed that there are things I like better now and some things I just don't eat anymore. Of the things I don't eat, I just seem to have no desire to eat them.
I think it's because as we age, our bodies require different types of food. Surrender is still your slightly less painful option. |

Caged birds eat large amounts of their own **** too, don't forget that.
Anyways, animals have their own versions of cravings just as much as people do. My cat is particularly picky. She very rarely ever eats anything that I'm eating, usually just ends up pawing it a few times and then giving me her serious face. And even when it comes to her canned cat food she refuses to eat any of the solid brand so I have to buy chunk or shredded. It can be the exact same flavors but she will still refuse the solid.
On the flip side my parents have a cat that will practically rip your arm off to get at a piece of turkey or ham and before that we had a cat that liked salsa of all things. |

I love eggs. I too prefer the yolk but only when runny. When hard boiled I prefer the whites. Unless you make a tasty deviled egg out of the yolk. |

The reason you don't like eggs is simple. Pods are referred to as eggs. You're a pacifist and don't like popping pods. So eating an egg would be equivalent to popping pods. SOLVED! Post with your lickGäó |
