Eggology Makes Kookie Krazy Cookies Safe to Eat RAW!

Ever since I was a kid, my favorite part of making cookies was eating the dough! I never really thought of eating uncooked cookie dough as being a big risk, but of course, concerns were brought to light due to salmonella found in raw eggs. Of course those that are familiar with Eggology know that we offer the ultimate in food safety to ensure that our eggs are safe to eat RAW! As a safeguard for consumers who use EGGOLOGY egg whites in raw form, we repeatedly test for salmonella, listeria, ecoli, TPC, along with a wide array of other harmful bacteria. While the USDA minimum requirement for testing is 1 in every 8 production days, EGGOLOGY egg whites and our other egg products are tested repeatedly everyday to insure absolute safety.

When Mark Bernhardt and James Kelley came up with a fun idea for a new business, of course they came to Eggology to provide them with the perfect egg white-offering a safe and delicious way for people to enjoy cookie dough!

Kookie Krazy Inc. in Thousand Oaks, California is THE store to visit to treat your sweet cravings. Their motto is "You Make 'Em, We Bake 'Em!" They created a magical place where customers make their own over sized cookies. You pick one of seven flavors of cookie dough, choose three of their 40 additions from their add in's selection, mix it all together and let Mark and James do the cooking for you. As if that wasn't enough, they have a toppings bar to make their delicious cookies even better-you can add chocolate syrup, ice cream or even gummy bears on top of your cookie! Think ""Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory"-where kids and adults alike can have a blast making their dream dessert!

Of course, my favorite item is their raw dough, which they sell by the cup-safe to eat raw, thanks to Eggology! Next time you are in Thousand Oaks, be sure to swing by and enjoy some cookies and some dough!

Can't make it to their store! Make your own cookie dough at home using Eggology Egg Whites, and eat the dough until your hearts content! Oh, and one final tip for chocolate chip cookie dough, scoop some dough into a coffee mug...heat the dough up ever so slightly in the microwave-just until the chocolate chips melt a little, and then enjoy-it's sooo delicious!

Tweet! Tweet! Eggology Featured in Los Angeles Business Journal

A long, long time ago, a little bird came to us and told us a big secret. The secret was that everyone is Twittering and to stay connected to our customers and fans, than we too must be Twittering. Twittering, we thought, what exactly is that? Sending messages ("tweets"!) out to our customers and fans ("followers") in 140 characters or less. Sounds challenging as we are usually wordy!

Nonetheless, we did create a Twitter account for Eggology and now have almost 600 followers. We have used Twitter to enlighten our audience about the latest Eggology egg white product, the hottest Eggology recipe, the coolest Eggology promotions and other fun things that we like and feel are valuable such as food safety issues or exercise/bodybuilding tips.

Interestingly enough, it seems that other companies are on board with Twitter and just recently the Los Angeles Business Journal (LABusinessJournal.com) did an article about the explosion of social media, such as Twitter, and how businesses are using it to get the word out to their customers. Having followed our Tweets on Twitter, the LA Business Journal called our own Brad Halpern, Chief Eggsecutive and Twitterer, to ask about his thoughts on Twittering and business. In more than 140 characters, Brad explained how he personally updates his company’s Twitter feed rather than delegating to an employee. This is what makes Twitter all that it is cracked up to be - we get to hear it straight from the heart of the source - in no more than 140 characters! Twitter-rific!

Don't miss out - follow Eggology on Twitter today (@Eggology)!

Eggology Hardboiled Eggs Featured in Health Magazine

Did you know that Eggology is not just an egg white company? Eggology also has products such as Cool Cravings, a higher protein ice cream, and Nortons Naturals, protein snacks for our four-legged friends, and in March 2008 launched a new line of all natural hardboiled eggs! These hardboiled eggs became available in 2-packs at many of your favorite grocery and specialty stores. Vacuum-packed, they are already-peeled and come with a packet of salt and pepper.

Eggology is pleased to announce that the Hardboiled Egg 2-packs were selected by Health magazine as Best in Food in their Breakfast Category in the June 2009 issue. Health magazine declares:
For a lean, no-fuss breakfast, help yourself to an Eggology hard-boiled egg from the fridge – no cooking or peeling required. Each egg has 70 calories, 4 grams of fat and 6 grams of protein, and comes with salt and pepper
packets for quick seasoning. They taste really fresh, too

Thanks Health magazine! We couldn't agree more!

"Biggest Loser" Daniel Wright Eats Eggology!

The TV show Biggest Loser's biggest contestant ever - weighing in at 454 pounds and just 19 years old - eats Eggology egg whites!! We have seen bottles of Eggology here and there on the show and recently when Daniel was let go from the show, we saw him featured on Access Hollywood, talking about his diet and his intention to keep at it!

In the clip below, he loads up on fruits and veggies at his local grocery store, and before he does that, he places a jar of Eggology egg whites into his cart. Why egg whites? He mentions that he is sticking to eating 1,500 calories per day. For those of you who count calories, you know that this isn't a lot at all! A 1/2 cup of liquid egg whites - which scrambles up to a nice portion - is only 60 calories. With no cholesterol or fat to count, he can enjoy Eggology egg whites at every meal knowing he is getting lean, natural protein with a very small calorie count.

Daniel is a big inspiration to all of us and we wish him the best!

Eggology Egg White Recipe of the Day: Fluffy Cheesecake

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC), an online paper for the Atlanta area, featured Eggology egg whites in a recipe yesterday in their "From Market to Kitchen" section - perfect timing for our weekly recipe post.

A reader wrote in to AJC's "Food Goddess" journalist asking if she had a recipe for "St. Louis-style chiffon cheesecake". Sure enough, she did. And she mentions that some of the elements contributing to this light, airy texture of the cheesecake are ingredients such as "gelatin, beaten egg whites and whipped cream". She goes on to say, "If you are concerned about the small risk of salmonella from raw or partially cooked eggs, use pasteurized eggs. Because the whites from pasteurized whole eggs don’t beat as well as regular eggs, I like to use a packaged pasteurized egg white product like Eggology." Great choice! Recipe follows:

Fluffy Cheesecake
12-16 servings
Hands on: 30 minutes
Total time: 3 1/2 hours

Note: Serve plain or top with fresh fruit, pie filling or a sprinkle of reserved crust crumbs.

WHAT YOU NEED:

For the crust:
1 sleeve graham crackers, crumbled, or 1 1/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted

For the cheesecake:
2 envelopes gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
4 eggs, separated, divided
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup milk
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS:

To prepare the crust:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter. Press mixture onto the bottom of a 10-inch springform pan to form a thin layer (if you have enough, press up the sides a little, too).
Bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.

To prepare the cheesecake:

Meanwhile, in a bowl, stir together gelatin and water and set aside. In the top of a double boiler, combine yolks, 3/4 cup sugar, salt and milk. Stirring constantly, cook until thickened and the mixture coats the back of a spoon.

Remove from heat and stir gelatin into hot custard mixture, stirring well to combine. Set aside.

With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. On low speed, add custard mixture until combined.

Whip reserved egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and continue beating to stiff peaks. Gently fold into custard mixture.

Whip cream until it softly peaks and gently fold into custard mixture.

Spoon cheesecake mixture into completely cooled crust. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Per serving: 470 calories (percent of calories from fat, 63), 8 grams protein, 37 grams carbohydrates, trace fiber, 33 grams fat (20 grams saturated), 171 milligrams cholesterol, 379 milligrams sodium.

Eggology Egg Whites: Blast from the Past and Forward into the Future

This holiday time of year prompts many to think of the past, of the present, and of the future. Googling the word "Eggology" today, I ran across an article that was titled Incredibly edible - trends - Eggology Liquid Egg Whites and was featured in Vegetarian Times, June 2003. The article goes on to describe how the author met the Chief Eggsecutive of Eggology who introduced her to Eggology and it's egg white product.

What I found interesting was that the title contained the word "trend". According to an online dictionary, a trend is defined as the general direction in which something tends to move or, more loosely, current style; vogue. Obviously I cannot speak for the author of the article however I can see how she may have assumed that egg whites would just be another trend ... a passing fancy, like the many different diets that find their way in and out of our society.

It's been five years since the article was written and we can tell you that Eggology egg whites are here to stay. The demand for egg whites, from athletes and body builders to professional chefs in five-star restaurants to moms and dads have kept Eggology alive and thriving. And for that, we thank all of you. And will continue to provide the best possible egg white product now and into the future.

Eggology Featured in GlobalChefs.com

Calling all chefs out there! We found a great resource. It's called GlobalChefs.com. It is a go-to website for all people interested in cooking, with sections such as "featured chefs", gourmet articles, cookbook reviews, environmental kitchen, recipes, even a "career center" and much more.

Propostion 2 Passes in California! Eggology Practices Humane Treatment of Animals

Eggology is so proud that animal rights have prevailed in California. Proposition 2 was created by Californians for Humane Farms. They believe that it is cruel and inhumane to confine animals in cages so small that they can't turn around or stretch their limbs. Now that Prop 2 has passed, what can we expect? No more cruelty to animals. An improvement in our health and food safety. New opportunities for family farmers, less opportunity for factory farms. All positive results.


Eggology is proud to say that we were the first and still the only egg whites to be "certified humane" as we have made it a priority to promote animal welfare. Receiving the prestigious "Certified Humane" designation affirms that Eggology meets the Humane Farm Animal Care's stringent Animal Care Standard. What does this mean? This means that:
  • Hens live and move freely in large community open-air hen houses
  • No cages - hens have unlimited access to feed, water, and dirt for bathing
  • Hens are fed a 100% certified organic diet comprised mainly of organic corn, organic alfalfa, organic soy, organic salt & limestone
  • Hens that become injured for any reason receive immediate attention from an onsite poultry specialist to determine if the injury requires isolation for healing, or that the severity of injury will incur undo suffering in which case the hen is humanely euthanized
  • Hens who die are cremated on the ranch to prevent any potential for disease
  • Hens are not de-beaked

Remember happy chickens equal healthy eggs!

Eggology in the News: Think Outside the Carton

Eggology is in the news again! Reviewed in the Food section of LifeScript - a website dedicated to women's health and wellness - in an article about cutting out the fat in eggs, making them safer and more convenient. Their review of our egg whites:

Pasteurized, these whites come in refrigerated, pourable containers, with a slightly longer shelf life than regular eggs. We prefer the organic Eggology brand, which contains no added preservatives or flavors.
