Dagwood222 ( @Dagwood222@lemm.ee ) 53•2 months agoI think it’s weird to eat a dozen deviled eggs in one sitting.
Tolookah ( @Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de ) 20•2 months agoRight, you don’t sit when you eat deviled eggs, you are at a party, mingling so no one notices when you grab that 12th one.
adarza ( @adarza@lemmy.ca ) English4•2 months agoyou can have (well, used to) eggs anytime… fried, boiled, scrambled, omelets, poached–whatever. but gram’s special deviled eggs were for ‘special occasions’ only. she always made enough, so yea. gonna eat far more eggs that way than i ever would in a normal breakfast or meal.
Dagwood222 ( @Dagwood222@lemm.ee ) 4•2 months agoAlso, deviled eggs are usually put out at a festival. Gunning down six eggs at a 6 am breakfast is gluttony. Noshing on a dozen deviled eggs over the course of an evening is not grotesque.

If someone eats 6 slices of plain bread, they’re weird.

Dr. Wesker ( @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org ) English7•2 months agoWhat’s even weirder is how full you feel eating 6 hard boiled eggs, but not if you eat the equivalent 6 deviled eggs.
zagaberoo ( @zagaberoo@beehaw.org ) 6•2 months agoTruly, I scramble six eggs in a go, but six boiled eggs feels like a whole feast somehow.
Dr. Wesker ( @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org ) English6•2 months agoYolk composition theory. Fullness depends entirely on the composition of the yolk.
HubertManne ( @HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com ) 6•2 months agoSo its unusual that I think scarfing down a dozen devilled eggs would be a bit much?

Raymond Shannon ( @chillBurner@lemmy.ml ) 1•2 months agoThe same reason why you don’t simply eat boiled meat, but mainly eat it in a stew/soup.
It’s not exactly a flavor town experience with boiled meat, innit?
