Egg Whites In Bulk....

[vachelle72]

Hi Ladies-

I wanted to know if anyone has purchased "egg whites" in bulk quantities , or do you just seperate them the old fashion way?

I am looking for a time saver , and I am considering purchasing from one of the following companies......

The cost is only slightly higher than buying a carton , plus when you factor in the time saved on cracking and seperating , it isn't bad at all.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I haven't bought them in bulk, but do buy the 100% egg whites cartons from Trader Joes. It's 2.5 cups (about 12+ eggs' worth of whites) for $1.99. Ingredients state that it is 100% egg whites only and they have an expiration period of about 2 months. I find them extremely convenient to use and am far too lazy to deal with real eggs.

Thanks Rooney-

I was buying the one's from Trader Joe's also , but since I live in Los Angeles , there seems to be a larger population of "healthy" people so they were always sold out..very frustrating.

I actually ended up ordering from Egg White Int. , turns out they are based here , so my "whites" arrived the next day , in a freezer safe container.

The price was very reasonable , 32.00 for (2) containers of about 84 egg whites each!!! and the delivery was only 8.00.

that seems alittle expensive to me, but your supply wouldn't last me the week.

But hey at least you get your egg whites.

Wouldn't last you a week

Not to bad , I based it on the small carton from Trader Joe's , which works out to about .17 per egg white , with this I pay .19 cents , not including the shipping. But I figure I spend at least $8.00 in time and gas driving to several stores trying to find them

I buy eggs in bulk from costco - usually 4 x 18 cartons (=72) at a time - that amounts to about $7 I think.

If I'm in a time crunch I'll scramble up my eggs the night before & nuke as needed. God knows I've eaten plenty of eggs cold while driving to the gym as well...

Me too!! I actually LIKE them cold now or cold hard-boiled.
