Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
Yes, because I'm always the one to find that bite with the little hard lump in it in the brownies.
I told dh that he had to because everyone in the States did it Then we actually saw a cooking show where the guy pulled them out too, so I wasn't totally wrong.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
I have never noticed them in a cooked food before. I think I would be taking them off then too. I also don't remember seeing them ever in my life up until we started getting cage free from up the street.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
If you are eating eggs anyway, I don't see why not that bit. Good protein, why waste it? Who is afraid of a little lump in your brownies?

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
Usually I will even add it in if it clings to the shell

Interesting, I've never heard of anyone doing it. So nope I don't.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
No. I learned about this on PBS as a child, and tried to convince my granny that those were not embryos. She still took them out.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
I love that this has 3 pages of squiggly stuff debate.
I have never thought twice about them. |

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
I have never ever seen an egg with one of those and we have minutes old eggs from our own chickens for breakfast

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
Yep, I've always taken them out, cause my mom does.
I use a fork, definitely don't stick my hands in there.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
I have never noticed it in my eggs. I do notice a small brown speck in most of my eggs though, but now white stuff.

Ladies....I find this thread to be SO validating for me. I'm so glad I can come to GCM and feel like I'm not the only woman to deal with such things. And for those of you who have no clue what I'm talking about, it is very rare that it is not in an egg I crack. And I concur that finding it in your mouth in a yummy treat is . Pulling it out is worth the time for me. ---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ---------- I think it's a sensory thing, in all seriousness. My family seems to have an abundance of sensory issues which explains why we would all want to take it out, and not find it in our food later. I don't remember it ever tasting bad, just feels really weird.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
I only read the first page, but it is called the chalaza cord. I don't remove it. Here's a good diagram:
http://www.victoriapacking.com/egginfo.html Aw, man. I wasn't fast enough. I think I learned the name of that thing in High School Ag. I knew what it was called and what it was, but it took me a minute to figure out how to spell it correctly.

Re: white squiggly stuff in eggs
Nope, I've never noticed it once the egg is cooked.
