Feeling gross today. Happens every time I eat well cooked eggs for breakfast, and maybe even with sunny side up if I don’t have much besides that. Today, they were scrambled. Delish, but holy queasy :/
I’m the only one I’ve ever known with this issue. Anyone else out there?

So I didn’t really care about which tea I had. Figured anything would be good, I guess I was in that kinda mood. So when I made this, I didn’t expect it to be fab. Last time, I found it somewhat weak. But today? It was great! All semi sweet yet slightly tart and creamy strawberries with a lovely green base. Wonders never cease.

Eggs on their own make me queasy. I HAVE to have something with them – like toast and boiled eggs. Actually, I almost always pair toast with eggs, seems to help.

Indigobloom

Uniquity, same here!! If I have them on their own, the queasiness is unbearable, especially if I travel anywhere in a car. Toast or some other food helps a little, cutting it down by maybe half. After it sets in, apples seem cut through it and eliminate almost all of my discomfort.

Uniquity

Apples are EXTREMELY helpful! I totally forgot! I actually find that apples settle my tummy really well, and not just for egg related issues. My husband claims that I don’t digest eggs, I compost them (sorry!). I find if I have some toast and/or sliced apple as well, my body handles them way better. Which is good, because sometimes I really like eggs!

Unfortunately, I have an egg intolerance (as does my oldest brother). When we eat eggs our insides just HURT and I have to lay down for a few hours until it goes away. I can still eat things made with eggs (i.e. cookies) but if I eat eggs straight up- not good.

Indigobloom

Uniquity, glad to know I’m not the only one! Eggs are so yummy, I’m thankful apples are around to save the day :D

Indigobloom

Kristal, oh no that sounds awful!! Have you ever eaten them by accident?

Fjellrev

I’m fortunate that I don’t have this problem with eggs. However, coffee on an empty or near-empty stomach makes me sick.

Indigobloom

It makes me jittery!! Fine once I’ve had food. I never got the people who have a coffee for breakfast… how do they function?!

Kristal

Indigobloom, nope! As mentioned, I’m okay eating things that have a bit of egg in it (i.e. Cookies) and if I go out to eat I just make sure I don’t eat anything with eggs in it (I.e. Fried rice dishes).

Indigobloom

That’s good! be careful and always have an apple on hand just in case (kidding lol)

Bio

Let’s see… I’m a tea and workout fanatic, I work in HR, and most of my friends consider me to be an egg. White on the outside, Asian on the inside :)
-from philosophy to food, I love it all
Otherwise, what you see is what you get! I can be very straightforward and yet shy.

Also, I’ve started taking tea sommelier classes and it is an absolute blast! Well, so far I’ve only finished the first out of eight courses, but I am really looking forward to the next one.

Anyhow, if your curious as to how I rate things, this is how I work…

0-25
Like eating dirt, or some other unsanitary indelicacy that mentioning in my profile here would likely get me banned.
I don’t think I’ve found cause to banish a tea to the wasteland yet though so who knows what it’d inspire ;P

25-50
You know that expression “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater”? I imagine drinking that water would be terrible enough to warrant this rating!
I’d never make my enemy drink this, but perhaps I’d throw it at them. Good thing I don’t have any enemies!

50-70
This is “tea”?? I tried finishing the cup… but my body rejected it. There may be others who enjoy this tea, but it’s beyond me!

70-80
I tried liking it, and I can almost get there! I certainly don’t hate it, but something is holding me back. Allergies? Men in white suits? who knows… certainly not me!

80-90
Lovely tea! Not my all time fave but close. I likely wouldn’t repurchase, but may decide to based on many factors: price, accessibility, whether it fills a “tea gap”, medicinal applications, and how often I crave it.
Every once in awhile I find the sweet spot that bumps these up to 90+. Those are the days I need to buy a lotto ticket!

90-95
Sweet Camellia! this is realllly good tea! Don’t talk to me until I’ve finished my cup…

95-100
Tea of the gods. I would do anything to get my hands on more of this liquid gold!
