Go to work on an egg (again)

Mon 9th Feb 2 eggs
Tues 10th 2 eggs
Wed 11th 1 egg

Total to date 30


This from the BBC website today 11th Feb. Clearly our timing is
im-peck-able...

"A University of Surrey team has said that most people could eat as many eggs as they wanted without damaging their health. The researchers, who analysed several studies of egg nutrition, said the idea that eating more than three eggs a week was bad for you was still widespread. But they said that was a misconception based on out-of-date evidence.

Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin said eggs were actually a key part of a healthy diet, as they were particularly packed full of nutrients."


We know. We know! Have they just realised?

Still; I'm pleased they caught up...

[For those who may not know "Go to work on an Egg" was the slogan for a 1960's ad campaign starring a grumpy Tony Hancock - take a look - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1HgVb6AHmM. Of course I'm far too young to remember it...
