Why are liquid eggs so fattening from the college cafeteria?

Q: Okay, so the scrambeled eggs they serve at the UT-Austin cafeterias have the nutrition info online. They post the ingredients as liquid eggs with Citric Acid! The nutrional label posts that it has 6 grams of protein and 13 GRAMS OF FAT in one serving! I know that’s not natural so I was wondering if anyone knew why they are so fattening? Are they highly prcessed or something? Does anyone know where they buy them from?

A: That is impossible my friend. I can almost guarantee that their nutritional information is wrong. One whole egg (average size) has 5 grams of protein and about 5 grams of fat. Surely, they are serving you more than one egg per serving right? Even if it was one egg, there is NO WAY one egg has 13 grams of fat. Since you’re in college, try to make friends with someone who’s studying nutrition or food science. Then get them to take a look at the nutritional information. I can assure you, that is completely wrong.

The recommended amount to eat is just 2-3 a week, but in the past most people ate 1 per day when eggs were popular and they didn’t seem to suffer from some kind of eggy disease by eating more than is recommended these days.
