What's some really unpopular opinion you have? (lemmings.world)

Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Eggs are gross.

[–] CookieJarObserver@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

No they are Eggs

[–] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So you don't like:

Baked goods, Battered foods, Breaded foods, French toast, Ice cream, Marshmallows, Mayonnaise, Meatballs, Nougat, Pancakes or Essentially All Pasta?

There's a pretty distinct difference between eating eggs, and egg being an ingredient

[–] talab@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Absolutely this. I don't mind eggs as an ingredient but straight up eating them is foul.

On the topic, can we please get some savoury brunch options which aren't completely built around poached or scrambled eggs? Sure you can remove them, but it takes away such a massive percentage of the dish. Even vegan dishes just substitute the egg for a tofu scramble 🤢

thats anti-egg propaganda. egg is egg! egg is egg! we will not be 'tossed' any longer. I just had two soft boiled eggs yesterday with a crossoint and it was the highlight of my day.

add eggs to boiling water, cover remove from heat, 6 minutes, not to firm, not too runny, the perfect eggy

I mean I love spicy food but you wouldn't see me chugging the chili powder.

[–] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Dont run interference for the anti-egg people. Pro egg has been beaten down and persecuted for years- egg is egg. don't parrot their propaganda.

[–] tungah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I second this opinion.

I don't agree, I'll wolf down an egg any day, but I respect your opinion
