Have been eggfree for about 7 years. There are viable substitutes. Tofu can be prepared as a good egg substitute. It'll never be exactly the same, but you get used to it. I like it because no chickens were treated like shit during its manufacture.
I don't think this person's point was that everyone needs to eat tofu instead of eggs, but instead that there are plenty of other options. Yeah, it sucks that food is becoming more expensive, but there are a lot of different food options to choose from.
Thanks, yeah, that is what I meant. I've been without food for 40 hours to prep for a medical procedure, so my thought processes are a little janky today.
There's always one in every thread about this...you cannot expect 300-something million people to suddenly be able to adopt your special snowflake diet. It's cool that you have. And some may be able to switch. But this is not a viable solution at this time for the majority of the population.
And there's always the entitled dietcrat in every thread of life. I was just trying to help anyone who might be interested in paying less for something that can be a little like an egg AND have some more health benefits. Guess it is pretty hard to look up information online on how to make substitutions in a diet and gosh darn do stores make it almost impossible to find the necessary ingredients, tucked away in the produce department. But you do you and enjoy paying your higher prices and then whinging about it when you could be doing something else.
For what it's worth, I agree with you. I don't consume meat, but I do eat products containing eggs. It just blows my mind that eggs are so important to people. If I could never eat eggs again, it would be akin to someone telling me "You can never use Tide detergent now. You have to use Gain." Oh well, whatever. There are 1000 different options. The fact that this one particular dietary item is so important to people is just strange to me.
