A friend and I get into a debate every time the subject comes up!. To settle it once and for all, are they!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
First, the answer to your question!.!.!.they are a protein source which is NOT categorized as a meat and they are not categorized as a dairy, either!. They are simply EGGS!.
Listen up, all you who are saying they are abortions!.!.!.they are NOT abortions!. They are NOT baby chicks!. They do NOT have a face!. In order for them to be an abortion, they would have had to be fertilized and hens in a commercial egg industry are NEVER exposed to roosters; therefore, they are NEVER fertilized!. A fertilized egg, unless you cracked it open or cooked it, would never be an abortion, either!. Just because it is outside of the hen's body does not mean it was aborted, that is where ALL eggs of the fowl species develop!. Outside the body!. Good God! Didn't you learn ANYTHING in school!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eggs are not meat, however, they are an animal product, so most vegans choose to avoid them along with dairy and meat!. They are protein and are good for you up to a few times a week, but are also a source of salmonella and lots of cholesterol!. Eggs can be replaced with many things, including powdered egg-substitutes you mix with water, 2 oz of tofu mixed with water makes and eggy consistency, flax seeds mixed with water and boiled, or soy flour and water mixed together!.
Once again,eggs are NOT meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes it is!. The reason people vegitarians don't eat meat is because they love animals!. Just think of eggs as very young undeveloped innocent chickens!. Eggs are kind of like an abortion for humans!. I personally am not a vegitarian but if you are i suggest you stop eating eggs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
No, they are not meat, but they are dairy!. So it is acceptable for a vegetarian to eat eggs, but not a vegan, who avoids any animal products whatsoever!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Depends on your religion!. If you are vegan, they are!. Vegetarian, they are not!.
An egg is not fertlized so it will not develope into a chicken!. Only a fertilized egg will make a chick, hence meat!.
Thanks CiCi!. I thought I was the only prude here!. I say "eat what you want and what makes you healthy"!. Just because wild life (or domestic) can run free if you win the lotto doesn't mean some deer won't find your headlights!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well what is an egg!? Well it's a baby chicken, right!? What is a chicken!? Is that meat!? Yes sir, sure is!.!.!. I don't see how just because it never hatched how someone can't call it meat!? It was alive!.!. It had a beating heart!.!.!. That's like calling a baby not a baby cause it wasn't born!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Haha!. My mom and my Grandma used to argue over this too!. My Grandma would say "It's not meat, cause it's not developed" and my mom would say "It's the same thing as eating a baby chick!."

Eggs are a meat product!. They contain many proteins found in meat products; Albumin!. The yolk part is considered fats!. The White part is considered meat based!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
No, eggs are a poultry product!. Strict vegetarians (vegans) won't eat them because they come from animals (like cheese, milk, cookie batter)!. But anyway, eggs are not meat!.
(To Kimberly: A lot of vegetarians are so because of health concerns, not because they want to save "innocent chickens" from the grinder!. Someone else will eat them!. Probably me!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. Eggs are unfertilized, so they are really nothing more than a chickens period or ovulation!. You are not eating meat if you eat eggs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
No, they are not meat, but they are a potential life, so I surely hope that pro-lifers abstain from eating eggs just be consistent ;)Www@FoodAQ@Com
A vegetarian might eats eggs and drink milk because the animal's purpose is to provide food for us, but not to be the food themselves!.
