I forgot who asked now ... Larry? John? Whomever ...

From my El Peto Products egg white powder package: "You can handle and use it like regular egg whites, e.g., whip it to meringue or use it in your recipes ..."

I kept meaning to answer that person who asked about the egg white powder, whether it can be whipped up or not, the answer is yes ...

Don't recall if it was myself or Larry;
but, thanks for letting us know.

LOL ... I'm glad I got that one typed up and passed on to you.

Wow, nearly $8.00 (USA) for a small tin.
(Egg White powder).
Bought some to try your Chocolate bars recipe.

Cool!! :-)

I'd love to hear what you think ... it does take tweaking. The texture varies too.

And, I computed that my egg white powder (which comes in a little bag, so it's about one cup, and 1/4 cup is 20 grams of protein) is about the same price as actual eggs themselves (except I don't use the yolks obviously).

So not sure if you're paying extra for the packaging?

I'm finding, though, that if I eat one meal of chocolate bar for protein, I'm fine. But if I eat it constantly, as I have on occasion, that I start ... what's a polite way of saying it? I go to the bathroom and it smells bad there afterwards. Ok? Gotta be honest. Maybe it's just my issue though ...

It's worth it for me to eat it several times a week though ...

Good point!
My cardboard "tin" has 21 servings.
1 serving is 2 tsp is 1 egg white in volume is 3 g Protein.
So 21 servings is equivalent to about 20 real eggs.
12 real pastured eggs is about $5.00.
Or 12 supermarket eggs is about $3.00.
So its only a fraction more and I do hate throwing away all those egg yolks.
Which is why we eat Pastured eggs.
But for the purpose of having just egg whites, I can see its usefulness.

So, my Canadian experience and your American experience seem to match ... :-)

I'm learning conventional egg yolks could be very good for your hair ... for various other stuff ... I'm reading up on it over time ... LOL. Not for eating, though.

I know there was a thread about the AA in pastured eggs or non-conventional eggs. I can't recall how much AA was in pastured eggs, but not that much?

I do love a fried egg with a runny yolk. So divine. I used to eat it as a child!

A

So do I!
Modified a bit from childhood, with a slice of sprouted (Ezekiel) bread instead of plan cardboard white bread.
Counts as one of my cheat meals about once per month or once every two months.

Sounds so divine ... ;-)
