4.0 out of 5 stars Healthy and Inexpensive, but...., December 5, 2009

Well, on the positive side, this product is inexpensive, doesn't require refrigeration, and keeps well. One quarter cup provides 20 grams of complete protein, and as the bottle contains 27 quarter cup servings, you can't beat the price. One quarter cup plus 3/4 cup of water can be whipped up in a blender and then cooked up as scrambled eggs or even an omelet. The product can be added to soymilk and fruit and so consumed as a decent-tasting smoothie.

On the negative side, the scrambled eggs described above are fairly foul tasting - nothing at all like scrambled eggs made from complete eggs or even the liquid egg-white products one finds at the local grocery - so, I (gasp!) douse my scrambled eggs liberally with ketchup and that takes care of the taste issue.

Enough said.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Inexpensive High Quality Pauteurized Egg White Protein, March 13, 2009

I wanted a source of protein that would be easy to cook and with the essential amino acids. Egg White Powder fits the requirement. I also use
powdered milk to make milk for coffee and use at home. I read about some
products of egg white powder that did not have a good taste. I tried a few
of them and this is the best. Trick is to take the amount of powder, I use
1/4 of a cup and put it through a sieve into some bottled water into which
I added some salt or salt substitute, some pepper, and soy sauce. Use a beater to dissolve it into the liquid, let it sit about 2 minutes, and fry it in some safflower oil. A 1/4 of a cup of this powder is equivalent to
6 eggs. There is no mess, clean up is quick. The company suggests adding 1/4 cup of the powder to 12 oz. of milk and drinking it. Cooking it is no
problem for me. I figured one pound of this Egg White is the same as
144 eggs, so the price is very good for that protein.

My mother has increasingly less ability to consume/swallow liquids. Adding this pure egg white product to her nutritional supplements helps provide better nutrition for her. There are absolutely no additives or preservatives listed in the contents.
