#2But I like eggs damnit.
Edit 1. My comment was made on a submission, which I did not think would gain much notice. Oops. Low quality comment to the fore!
Edit 2. Really though, I eat a couple of eggs a day. I should scale it back anyway, as a hedge, and eat non-traditional (In USA) breakfasts, like rice and beans.

How many times have they flip-flopped back and forth on eggs alone? It's easy to get the impression that the people running these studies are either biased or simply don't know what they're doing.

#5Eggs. Every decade 180° turn. If you don't like this paper just wait.

#6Oh great, another one of those bs self reporting nutritional studies over super long periods of time. 17.5 years and they only followed up once from what I can tell. Can you accurately report what you ate over the last 17.5 years?
Even over the past week can be difficult as I realized when I started tracking my food in MyFitnessPal. Unless consistently tracking, it's pretty easy to be very far off from what you actually eat.
That's assuming people are even trying to be accurate. Many look on the past with rose tinted glasses and forget about indulgences and snacks.
These studies are plague on the industry and need to go away.

I agree. Eat what you want. Don't overdo any one thing. Prefer natural to processed food. Watch your weight. Enjoy life and don't worry so much.

I used to be that way. 100% hardcore gimme that delicious bacon.
An article by Glenn Greenwald (of interviewing Snowden fame) on Ag Gag laws [1] made me realize that, at least in the US, eating bacon meant I was supporting some real fucked up shit.
I'm not opposed to meat, I just bought a whole beef, but I definitely took a hard look at where my meat was coming from.

#9I wonder who funded this research?
Did it also account for frequent egg-eaters tendencies to maintain a particular kind of diet regarding other foods, and other similar associations?

Right? Sausage and bacon seem likely culprits.
