I like butter. Olive oil makes it taste, well, oily.

Quoted: Exactly what makes it healthier than butter? According to some article I skimmed months ago, it's got healthy shit in it. I cook red potatoes in olive oil, they're delicious. Way better than butter. |

Quoted: Much healthier than butter and taste great. Hahaha that’s the funniest thing I’ve read today so far. OP your health info is based in the 1950’s. I will say it has a good taste, but not better than butter. |

Olives and eggs have a similar ovoid shape, cooking them together distorts the feng shui of the dish as well as cataclysmically redirecting life-affirming chi. Nothing good can come of it.
As pigs and cows do not have an ovoid vernacular, they can symbiotically coexist with the egg, rendering it good. |

Bacon grease. Any thing but processed seed oils, corn, soy, etc. Bad for your health. Olive oil tastes well bad, on eggs to me.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Best way: Half butter half EVO, olive oil keeps butter from burning. How hot are you cooking your eggs? If you go too hot with the olive oil you are forming free radicals. The key is don't cook any oil beyond it's smoke point. |

Saturated vs unsaturated fats. Butter, on average, contains three time the saturated fat of olive oil.

Butter, whole butter.
Melt butter. (Ensure pan is appropriate temp) Add egg. Flip egg. I usually soak up excess butter around the egg at this point with a paper towel. Slip egg onto plate Add salt and fresh ground pepper Eat |

Maybe heresy for the fat-fetish junkies but I microwave scrambled eggs in a glass bowl. No grease, no alien flavors, season to taste.
And more "heresy": bacon sucks. Mostly just fat cooked to crispness with very little actual meat. I'll take a slice of ham/Canadian bacon or sausage over bacon to go with my eggs. |

Def healthier Anti-inflammatory wise. Taste is pretty good as long as you a good EVOO. A lot of oil out there is fraudulent.
I have to say that butter tastes so good though. |

Tried both. OP is wrong.
The small amount of butter used makes the potential health advantage of olive oil inconsequential. |

I tried it once and the solidified slab of egg that came out was simply horrific, the rubbery consistency was so incredibly off-putting I fed it to me dags. |

Ghee is great when you cook at very high temps, you are better off with butter for eggs......save some $ and enjoy the flavor I like my eggs fried with a lacey edge. Ghee helps to achieve that.
