    Thanks! However, I’ve heard that the yolk is actually unhealthy because it contains a lot of cholesterol. I don’t really see a benefit to eating the yolk, so I just throw it out when I eat boiled eggs, which is infrequent anyway.

      it does have cholesterol in it, but studies have shown that it doesn’t impact blood cholesterol levels very much at all. saturated fat is what does that

      the yoke is where like 80% of the nutrients and all of the protein is. the white is 90% water. I don’t like the texture either, but the yoke is my favorite part of fried eggs, and soft-boiled eggs
