Eggs of evil?

Myth: Eggs are orbs of death.

Truth: Eggs may be the most maligned food in history-British cuisine notwithstanding. Seems all they're good for these days is pelting hapless motorists on Halloween. But the cholesterol in eggs doesn't translate into cholesterol in your blood-and is much less harmful to your arteries than saturated fat. So unless you have high triglycerides and need to cut your cholesterol intake aggressively, an omelet now and then is no nutritional sin. Unless, of course, you fry it in tons of butter, and serve it with hash browns and rashers of bacon. Do that on a regular basis, and your arteries will clamp shut tighter than a pit bull on a mailman's leg.
