Study: A Person's Way Of Eating Eggs Can Determine Personality Type

Using sophisticated maths and a process known as data mining, scientists have uncovered a statistical relationship between a person's character, lifestyle and social class and whether they like their eggs boiled, fried, scrambled or as an omelette.

In the new study, the research team found that poached egg eaters are outgoing, listen to upbeat music and are happier, boiled egg consumers are disorganised, fried egg fans have a high sex drive, scrambled egg aficionados are guarded and omelette eaters are self-disciplined.

Readers of The Daily Telegraph were shown to be most likely to prefer poached eggs. The results were released to mark British Egg week, which starts on Monday.

Researchers questioned 1,010 adults across Britain who answered queries about key aspects of their personality, as well as details about their lifestyles, family, and the way they prefer to eat their eggs.

The study was commissioned by the British Egg Industry Council and carried out by Mindlab International.
It was discovered that the average poached egg-eater is likely to have two children and no more than one sibling and is more likely to be a woman than a man.

Boiled egg-eaters had a tendency to be careless and impulsive.

Fried egg-eaters are most likely to be younger and male and most frequently found among the skilled working classes.

Scrambled egg-eaters are more likely than other types to be in managerial or senior-level jobs and also to own their own home, and omelette eaters are likely to have a tidy home.

Meaningless research.  I like fried eggs, scrambled, omelettes , and boiled eggs.  I don't think I've ever had poached.

This is so funny, ever seen in Museums the china egg cups the wealthy used to eat their boiled eggs.?  

Nothing was said about the athletes that drink raw eggs in a health drink.  

Where do these loony tunes come up with this stuff.?     People tend to eat as adults the food they were raised on, a person whose family served stuffed hard boiled eggs or served them fried, made omelets or scrambled them, eggs are comfort food for some of us.

Nothing was said about asian cultures that crack a raw egg into their food (i.e. gyudon topped with a raw egg mixed with soy sauce!)

Or bury them in horse manure for a few weeks.

I like all four, so I guess that means I have a split personality?

I like eggs in all manner of preparation except I haven't had poached eggs but a few times since I was a child. 

When us kids were feeling poorly eventually mom would make us poached eggs on toast.  Didn't much care for them then and the few times I've had them since Usually involved a substantial dose of hot sauce.
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.
