Hi Debby,

I have a little bugaboo about eating the whites raw so I
usually cook them or use them in recipes. My husband
loves these simple coconut macaroons made with honey,
coconut and egg white so  it works out well. He's not so
paleo so he eats cookies.

I could be wrong about the egg whites but in my research
kept coming up with the info that egg whites contain  a
glycoprotein called avidin that can lead to a biotin deficiency.
Cooking solves this problem. It was my understanding
that egg yolks were not a problem so I just use the yolks
raw and cook the whites. This may not be a problem at
all for the infrequent use of raw egg but I eat a lot of them.

I also just find the white less appetizing than the yolk unless
it's cooked. :)

I'm sure someone here will correct or update my info if
I am off base on this.
