> eggs are bad for you....four a week max...

I've always suspicioned that veggies can eat more eggs than non-veggies,
my guess being that eggs are bad because of cholesterol(sp?), so is meat, if
you don't eat meat,.... qed.  Anybody know the "true facts" in this case?

As someone said, a microwave is a big help is materializing real food,
even frozen real food (sic).  Also, after I get home from the grocery
store, I take a few minutes to pre-prepare vegetables (chop a head of
lettuce into eighths, wash radishes, etc.) and tuck them into bowls in
the fridge.  I also hard boil a bunch of eggs at once.  Then during the
week I can assemble a mish-mash salad in 5 minutes just by throwing this
stuff together and preparing then only the things that don't keep like this.
Example: lettuce, slices of cucumber, slices of kiwi, a quartered hard-boiled
egg, a little package of raisins, some raw sunflower seeds, and light
mayonnaise.  yum.  Kraft even sells pre-crumbled cheddar (not to be confused
with the sawdust sold as grated parmesan cheese), for busy spendthrifts.
