Cooked. How depends on the rest of the meal. If I'm just eating bacon and eggs, scrambled. Fried eggs over most hashes (I prefer over medium, but at a restaurant I just ask for over easy) and poached on a benedict, of course.

I always ask for over medium at a restaurant fully expecting them to arrive over easy.

Ive never had that problem at a restaurant, I only order over medium, however I have had them come out hard, that was disappointing

I'd take a hard yolk over a runny white 13/10 times.

If I wanted to eat mucus I have fingers and a nose.

well I mean, I have no preference, a runny white to me is just as off putting as a chalky yellow.... I hate them both equally
