  • Rotten eggs = horrible awful smell
  • "eggy farts" = horrible smell, sometimes labelled the same as rotten eggs
  • Uncooked egg, e.g just cracked open = doesn’t smell of anything
  • a nicely hard/medium boiled egg = nice “buttery” smell
  • any egg cooked with butter or oil [e.g omelette, fried or scrambled] = Very nice combination of smells, half smells of whatever you cooked it in, half smells like the buttery smell of a boiled egg.

As for taste, yeah. It is largely dependent on whether you cooked them properly though. I also really like picking up on the taste of egg in a cake.

I guess maybe some of us are more sensitive to sulfur than others. I’ve never had an egg that didn’t seem at least a little bit farty.

Same, not a fan of the smell but I love the taste.

I even get farm eggs from my mom, still kind of farty.

My partner gets some similar fancy eggs and loves them, but I have to hide 'em in something. They’ll definitely enhance a fried noodle dish, but if you’re just frying the egg on its own, I’ll pass.
