Meat is the flesh of animals!. So, eggs aren't meat!. You are still vegetarian if you eat eggs!.
However, whatever health benefits you think you're getting from eggs can also be obtained from vegetables, legumes, and grains, without all the cholesterol!. So, it doesn't make much sense to eat eggs just for the "health benefits"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've heard vegetarians from some sects of Hinduism refer to eggs as "liquid flesh" and they apparently carry the same tamasic qualities as meat!. Vegans and some other vegetarians also consider eggs to be as bad as meat but not because they are flesh foods, but because of the horrible treatment of factory farmed chickens who are cramped in tiny cages, often have their beaks cut off, often forced into laying eggs through starvation, often have their male chicks killed inhumanely simply because they can't lay more eggs, etc!. My advice is that if you make the conscious decision to eat eggs that you choose to get them from a friend or local provider who has a small number of pet chickens and avoid supermarket and fast food eggs to minimze the impact to animal welfare!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Viewpoints differ according to your reasons for being vegetarian!. Vegans are opposed to exploitation of animals in all forms and eat no animal products whatsoever!. Vegetarians who eat no meat for ethical reasons may eat eggs from cruelty free hatcheries or avoid them as a protest to the cruelty of most egg producers!. Those of us who eat no meat for health reasons avoid them because of their high cholesterol content!.
I would say don't worry about labels and do what feels right to you!. They are a high quality source of protein and studies suggest not unhealthy in moderation!. Every day might be a bit much!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Like everyone said eggs are not meat because they are unfertilized!.
Vegan's however do not view eggs as meat!. We refuse to eat them because of the treatment of the hen!. Not because they are meat!.
[and the hen still gets killed after she can't produce eggs anymore, and her male babies (when they breed her to get more lay hens) get killed at moments after birth!. ]Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on your philosophy!. Eggs that you buy in the store are unfertilised and will never become chickens!. The hen that laid the egg did not die (though factory farms bad etc etc), unlike the cow that provided your steak!. Make up your own rules! Www@FoodAQ@Com
To vegans, eggs are meat!. To most vegetarians, they are not, since they are unfertilized, and not actually a living thing that had to be killed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I would say eggs are NOT a meat beacause the eggs you buy in the supermarket are all unfertilizedWww@FoodAQ@Com
