I think it may be something to do with growing (possibly puberty) but my best friend's little brother, Jamie, is allergic to eggs, milk & (I think) wheat etc so his diet is pretty limited. That is, until recently. He can now begin to eat small, rather dilute amounts (like egg in cakes and Aeros (though I'm not sure why those and no other)). Basically my little thought is that its to do with your body changing *shrug*

I never used to either. I used to be allergic to them, and then somehow I became not allergic to them. It's only very recently I started eating them, but I've never boiled one, only done fried and scrambled!
Boiled Eggs
Why do I feel like this topic should have been started by SPIKE
My son has asked for boiled eggs for lunch today and as I've not done boiled eggs for years I thought I'd call the mother-out-law to ask her how to do them. After she finished laughing at me she said put the egg in cold water, bring to the boil and simmer for 2 1/2 mins for soft boiled. I then called my mum ('cos I remember her doing them differently) and she said put the egg in boiling water and simmer for 3 minutes. I'm going with the 1st option but wondered how other people do their boiled eggs

I eat the mashed potato with soup thing you told me about as comfort food all the time now!
