I talk about this all the time. You can change your perspective. Vast numbers of people eat and enjoy all kinds of non exotic foods. Eggs, steak, fish etc. Many think it is gross. But I say you ate missing out on an incredible, rich and soul comforting experience because it's red? the yoke is runny? Fish!?!? I love chicken liver. I hated it before. But I decided I wanted to like it. So I would smother it with bacon, onions and vineager., then started removing the amout of b,o,v until it was just liver. Why deny what we are loving. You could be loving it too.
The food/brain dynamic is fascinating. I think texture is a big part of it. (Idk) Personally, I love the flavor of onions. BUT, give me sort of wet floppy sauteed onions and I'll run out of the room (even though they smell divine). I try to adapt recipes to use pureed onions. It's a pain and does not always help the recipe, but I'm trying. The egg thing I understand. My beautiful Nana had a tendency to leave undercooked egg white around the yolk. See ya! I'm outta here.
Whites must be completely cooked and I prefer the yolks medium to where they're just slightly runny but mostly gelatinous. Virtually no restaurant can do this because It's nearly impossible on a scorching hot griddle.
I think it's mostly an OCD thing where I don't like my food to mix. I've learned to just mix the yolk in with my hash browns though. 😂
When I was growing up, the only way my mom would make eggs was if they were cooked to death first. Scrambled eggs were dry and rubbery, fried eggs smelled so horrible from the overcooked yolk, that it almost made me gag. For much of my adult life, I wouldn't touch eggs at all. It wasn't until I got married, at age 35, that my wife brought me around. She made me a fried egg, on a new electric griddle we got as a wedding gift, with the yolk oozing out, when the egg was cut into, she made sure there was plenty of bacon and toast on my plate, toast made from my own homemade bread so I could mop up all that yolk and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. It was almost like I had a preference for medium rare steak and I just didn't know it. And she showed me how to properly cook scrambled eggs Now, I love egg! And I'm the one that does all the egg cooking hell, most of the cooking for our family. So my point is, I absolutely can relate.
I am SO glad Chris Kimball is gone! What a great group.
That is one creepy dude.
I'd love to hear what changed his mind after so long

I love you Mr. Bishop! ATK just wouldn't be the same without you!!❤❤
Omg I love these!!
That me, I'm not near 50 but that's me.
Same. I'm 55 and have only started eating poached eggs – but the yolk has to still be cooked pretty well. Not too runny, but at least thickened.

I can't make myself eat eggs either. In fact, I can't be in the same room hours after they are cooked😢
Just like Guy Fieri…
Yeah, I'm not gonna eat Salmonella eggs.
Gap Teeth 🪥
Jack is the man!
I’d rather eat a raw egg than a hard boiled egg. But actually, I don’t usually eat raw eggs
No dippy eggs for Jack 👻

I get it. Only 1 out of 50 wants the raw egg. Your not alone ❤
I assume he was joking when he said that because clearly he is well over 50.
Runny or even moist eggs are a no go for me. 🤮
I don't eat undercooked eggs
But but but he looks 50 here 😅
I simply cannot bring myself to eat eggs that aren’t truly cooked. The snotty texture is tooooo much for me.
I think I will never like a runny egg ew
Jack I feel the same way! If I can't see it…….well I can fudge my undercooked egg rule a little 😉
Mid70s and still dont eat undercooked eggs. We call that liquid chicken! 😊

Runny eggs give me the gags. Every video on eggs is a competition of who can eat them the runniest and pretend it’s good.
I'm well over 50 and can't eat undercooked eggs.
I love this!😊
