I meticulously eat all the whites off my fried eggs then shove the intact yolk into my mouth. Mostly because I hate yolking the other food on the plate and fried eggs are best hot. I have converted my husband. Everyone else seems to think it's weird.

No way, I do the exact same thing! My husband thinks it’s cute but still prefers his eggs scrambled.

I do this but put it on the eye of the bacon first.

What is the eye of the bacon?

[–] ma11en@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

The roundish bit on UK bacon

I'm the opposite then, I guess. I don't need ketchup for my fries if I have egg yolk is all I'm gonna say.

I do this to not waste even a drop of the precious liquid flavor gold that are egg yolks.

There are dozens of us!

Thank God I'm not the only one who does this. I want to eat all the yolk, thank you very much. The stuff left on the plate is a waste.

Yes yes yes! I knew I wasn't alone! We can start our own community now!

I do this but eat the intact and nearly raw yolk first. Then maybe I'll eat the pedestrian whites with lots of Parmesan and butter.
