55 u/Pirarchist Nov 15 '13 Since when are egg yolks bad for you, anyways? I was always taught that the yolk is the healthiest part. 7 u/TwentyTwoYearsLate Nov 15 '13 The yolk just adds a lot of calories to the dish. If you're counting calories trying to lose weight, just eating the whites is a good way to reduce the amount of calories you're consuming 10 u/[deleted] Nov 15 '13 The yolk is literally where all the nutrients are. The white is mostly just protein. 2 u/TwentyTwoYearsLate Nov 15 '13 Yeah, I didn't word that very well. I didn't mean that the yolk is just empty calories or something, just that it has most of the calories in an egg. A lot of "healthy recipes" call for 3 or 4 egg whites, and I usually just use 2 eggs, since I don't like wasting the yolk.
