I love eggs whether scrambled, in an omelette, a sandwich or a salad (I do check the cholesterol from time to time).
I was talking to a friend who said she stopped getting eggs for a bit until this bird flu issue goes away. Does that worry anyone? Have you stopped getting/eating them. I haven't but have you? |

You can't catch bird flu through eating fully cooked eggs though. You'd have to be in contact with an infected bird or their bedding etc.
Check the NHS website for further information |

thanks. I am happy to carry on eating them. It's her perogative what she does I suppose. I am sure she read all that but she was still worried about it and more about handling them I think from what I could gather. I think she wanted reassurance from me. All I could say did say was that I am still buying and eating them and will carry doing so until some expert advises strongly against it. |
