Honestly, I'll eat the same thing for breakfast, lunch and dinner if I'm trying to get through some leftovers. Not an every day thing but I don't like wasting food.

No, they are the period of a chicken. A cycle. That’s what they are, as disconcerting as that may be. Learn some science.

Oh, the irony. Chickens ovulate, but they don’t menstruate. Menstruation is what is referred to colloquially as a “period.”

Chicken is about to get as expensive as eggs, and hard to find.




It’s not “crazy” at all. If anything is crazy, it’s your idea that at least half of your plate should be comprised of grains and legumes.

I wouldn't think something like a chicken sandwich or chicken noodle soup for lunch followed by roasted chicken or bbq chicken or chicken fajitas or sesame chicken for dinner is repetitive. I would also not consider eggs to be chicken.

At a certain point it's a health choice though: do you want to eat chicken 2-3x a day? Is it the chicken you actually like? I don't love meat and try not to eat a lot of it. So I have come to realize that I can get a sandwich fix out of cheese, veggies, and condiments without meat, and still get protein. Similarly I can get a fajitas fix out of cauliflower/onions/peppers roasted with fajita seasoning, eaten with all the regular fajita stuff (beans, veggies, cheese, sour cream, guac, pico, toritllas, etc...). I can still serve chicken (or beef or whatever) to my family without eating it myself. Chicken is our main meat, and we probably have it 5 times week in some form. I probably eat it three times.

I’ve had many days where there was either eggs or chicken in every meal. It’s totally normal.

That’s a lot of chicken.
When I make chicken soup, I simmer a whole chicken and then pull all the meat. Half goes in the soup, the other half goes into a freezer ziploc to be used for another purpose on a later date, like a casserole or Vietnamese chicken salad. That way not too much chicken too close together.

Doubtful. Strep was already in system


Huh? PP didn’t say the chicken caused the strep. They said their mind has made an association between strep and chicken.

I once got severely sick with appendicitis that started on the way home from a restaurant of a cuisine I didn’t have a lot of access to. I know that it was a coincidence, but it’s hard for me to break the association in my mind with those flavors and sickness.

An unfertilized egg will never be a chicken. A cooked egg will never be a chicken.

Parts of an egg
* Shell: A hard outer layer that protects the egg from damage 

* Yolk: Contains fat-soluble vitamins, iron, phosphorus, folate, and other nutrients 

* White: Also known as the albumen, this part contains protein and riboflavin 

* Membranes: The allantois, chorion, amnion, and vitellus/yolk are membranes that surround the egg 

Not a chicken.


Eggses are a single cell.

Of course but the relevant part of my question was the chicken.

WOW. Just...wow. Talk about lack of reading comprehension and understanding of basic science.
