They're usually shredded alive almost immediately because they're seen as "waste" since they don't lay eggs

During my vegan phase I was counting calories with Cronometer - if you eat unprocessed foods you can count calories using data from food-related institutions. Because of that, the protein data is detailed and is split into the individual amino-acids rather than just saying "you ate 100g of protein today". At the end of the day, my panel was all green (meaning 100% RDA) apart from lysine which was lower. I don't see where my diet was lacking anything crucial protein-wise that necessitates eggs. I can get the micronutrient argument with B12 and dietary cholesterol, but protein?

The thread poster ridicules "da beans" but is infact "muh eggs" themselves. And I have drawn myself as Chad and them as Wojak to prove it
