Answer to Question 1

Egg whites contain 90 water and almost no fat. Yolks are not quite half water and almost a third fat. The yolk also contains about 250 milligrams of cholesterol, which is why this person should decrease his egg intake in order to help lower his cholesterol content. Whites can be used freely, making the angel food cake a favorite dessert among those watching their cholesterol. Since he is used to eggs for breakfast, he might want to consider egg substitutes. Egg substitutes simulate a whole egg by using egg whites with a synthesized yolk mixture and coloring agent. Egg substitutes are available as either a fresh, fluid product or frozen. He might notice aroma and flavor differences in his breakfast eggs.
