    Only way to eat eggs--fluffy and scrambled. Add a teaspoon of tobasco or of Heinz 57 sauce. The perfect breakfast. Scrambled eggs and toast. Makes a nice dinner, too, if you're not in the mood to cook much.

    I love a nice omelette. Onions, zucchini, mushrooms, asparaguses. Everything, really. :lol:

    Scrambled with ham and a dash of ketchup are not bad, either.

    God help us.

    Fried bologna is delicious! Slap that between two pieces of bread and an egg, maybe a slice of cheese, and you've got a great meal!

    Sorry, but no. Just no.

    Low quality meat, fried in god-knows-what, is definitively not what I would call "a great meal".

    This, on the other hand, sliced really thin, inside a loaf of Italian bread, is definitively "a great nosh" ("meal" is reserved I'd reserve for something more substantial than a quick sandwich).

    :p

    Just about any style, but favorite is a tie between over-easy and sunny-side up. Loves me some runny yolks.

    Mm... Mortadella.

    I have to yell at German supermarket employees to cut it really thin all the time. :/
    They seem to pretend it's some weird sausage.

    Well, I usually add two slices of bologna (Hebrew National™ beef bologna is my favorite), cheese, and a strip or two of bacon and tomato (with pepper) on top of that fried egg, and the runny yolk from the egg gets into the slightly toasted bread slices. Now THAT'S a meal! :D
    Also, I don't use any oils, only butter to fry the egg and nothing to fry the bologna. When I do use oil for frying, it's olive oil.

    Mortadella is to be slices as thin as a sheet of paper, or cubed. Any other way is just blasphemy.

    :vulcan:

    No matter how many times you say it, it's still wrong.

    It's your taste buds. And your liver. Abuse them as you see fit.

    :p

    My liver is just fine, and my taste buds... well, yeah. Fried bologna is great! You should try it!

    That's exactly what I keep telling them. Yet they don't seem to grasp how serious this is. :(

    Wow, I haven't eaten mortadella in at least 40 years! :lol: Not likely to again, since I rarely eat any kind of meat. But hearing about it brings back nice memories of the Italian side of my family.

    I can only eat eggs scrambled or as an omelet. Never could eat them any other way.

    I adore eggs. I always add salt, pepper and a pinch of curry powder to scrambled eggs, and omelettes must be loaded with veggies and cheese, especially proper English cheddar.

    Another kind of scrambled eggs I sometimes make is what my aunt, who taught me to make it, calls "kattekots"--cat barf in Dutch (my family doesn't do subtle ;)). It involves chopping and frying onions and tomatoes before adding the eggs. It doesn't look appetising, hence the name, but is very good. I like to add mushrooms as well.

    It's close to what we call a pipérade. I like that :)

    I usually eat omelette with various ingredients in it, depends of what's in the fridge.

    I like eggs prepared several different ways. Sometimes I want one method of preparation, sometimes another.

    I'm not one of those people who have to rank everything. Sometimes I think people who insist on that are a little OCD.

    Egg salad is also good, so long as its homemade by a trusted friend or relative or is one of the good store-bought brands. Some egg salads on the market are just plain putrid and to top it all off the chunks of egg white in the salad are very miniscule. I prefer my egg salad to have fairly sizeable pieces of egg white...they make all the difference in the flavor and texture.
