@bg844's post about not liking eggs made me realise how many different ways there are to cook an egg!! 

Poached, fried, scrambled, omelette, baked etc

What's your favourite type? Honestly aside from fried (which I don't like) they all taste the same to me :D

    I quite like poached eggs, most other types really! I find fried gets a bit rubbery and greasy, so I steer clear of that type :)

    In order of my favourite ways to eat eggs.

    Poached eggs, buttered toast with HP fruity sauce for me 👌

    Oh and I love an egg mayonnaise sandwich. 👍

    Mushroom omelette 😋

    will be going back to powdered eggs shortly sm was in Tesco today the cheapest they had for 6 was £3.20 thats 64p per egg !!!
    I've never tried powdered eggs and assumed they were just for like cooking in cakes and stuff. Can you use them to make egg on toast etc? and yes egg prices are crazy yet I've seen that they're not paying farmers more which is just appalling!!

    Talking of eggs, has anyone tried 'Torres' fried egg crisps? 
    I bought some in a farm shop (they were stupidly expensive!) but I was intrigued and crisps are my thing - the verdict was (I loved them!) and that they taste exactly like the crispy bits of a fried egg.

    (Very strange to eat crisps that taste of egg though..😂)

    Many/most hotels (even 3 and 4 star) use powdered eggs to make scrambled eggs in quantity for breakfast buffets etc....

    How could I forget about dippy eggs @SueHeath! They've been a favourite of mine recently :) 

    £3.20 for 6 eggs is ridiculous!

    It seems the £3.20 for 6 eggs was initiated in @woodbine's response @Durhamjaide2001. In which case, @woodbine mentioned this was from Tescos!  :p
