Not bad! It doesn’t taste quite like chicken eggs, but it still hits the spot.

I really love these. My body has a hard time dealing with egg yolks so I don’t eat real eggs often enough to compare the taste, but I made egg salad with these and it really hit the spot.

That’s a lot of packaging for such little amount of food. What is the nutritional comparison to real eggs?

“6 pieces”… of half eggs?
I’m sick of overpriced plant based products. 144g is 3 medium eggs.
This is such an odd product. It’s not as nutritious, it’s more expensive and the plastic packaging amount is just atrocious. So if I were to buy this, it’s cause I really miss the flavor and texture of this type of egg – which is fair – but I’m not sure any company can sustain themselves on the “I miss the flavor and texture of a hardboiled egg” market.
Cool R&D experiment though!

Aww man, I moved out of SF in 2016 and I miss Rainbow Grocery. I’ve never been to a cooler grocery store.

I understand that the protein is so high because people are replacing meat proteins for plant based but as a parent of a kid who has PKU I wish some of these plant based products were lower in protein so my son could have a wider variety of foods. He has always wanted to try eggs his low protein ones are like play-doh
