Wow. Lime too? What's crazy is so many of these things are naturally occurring - things you'd expect to be good for you.
I wonder if it kinda goes along the line with the allergy thing. Too much of anything is too much. When I found out I was allergic to egg white, I asked the doctor how on earth. I'm also allergic to many, many medications - and she and my doctor are now suspicious it's the filler I'm allergic to rather than the actual medication. Well, my allergy doctor told me that many of the allergies that people are developing is possibly because people are consuming too much of those substances. She used the egg white as an example - it's a common filler in meds, it's used in baking, cooking, etc. Lots of products use egg substitute - which is, ironically enough, egg white. So this whole low cholesterol push - removing the yolk and using a lot of egg white is causing excessive consumption of egg white.
BTW... food cooked with the egg yolk only is yummy! Yes, I'm going to have to be careful with cholesterol, but since my cholesterol was really low when they checked it, I feel pretty safe eating the occasional french toast breakfast made with egg yolk only.
That's one reason I can't wait for my chickens to start laying. I won't feel as bad throwing out the egg whites if I'm not buying the eggs. Eggs are a byproduct of our family having a pet.
