Eggs (was Rats!)

Some people are allergic to the albumin in egg whites. Apparently egg
whites are potent histamine liberators. This can cause pains in the
gut, or diarrhoea, or in extreme cases a form of anaphylactic
reaction. Well-cooked eggs such as in cakes etc. tend to be less of a
problem than lightly cooked ones such as fried, boiled etc.
Hmm. I don't /like/ uncooked egg (as in lightly poached or fried or
boiled), but I do love uncooked cake mix. And I don't seem to have any more
or less problem with the amount it's cooked. Just duck eggs and, possibly,
white chicken eggs.
I obviously need to experiment more.
