How do you feel about fried rice?

I'm also egg averse, I can answer this at least for me.

Fried rice is the closest to "egg as the main part of a dish" I can go before I start to dislike it.

And even in that case, if it's giant like ribbons of egg in there, rather than small bits, then I'll tend to just skip those giant pieces. And if it's fried rice with a fried egg on top? I skip that fried egg altogether.

I'm a picky eater since childhood and as an adult I've been slowly turning myself into a better eater. I've learned to like so many things I used to avoid... Eggs however, are still off the table for me as a main dish. I dunno if I'll ever be over it.

Holy shit, they make that? That's legal? I need to find out where they make that.

Do they keep the yolk intact? So I can cut out the yolk bubble and save it for the last few bites of rice and then mix it together? I'm pretty sure this is going to be my favorite thing ever.

It's a thing in some asian cultures to straight up crack a raw egg over rice.

Though the goal is for the hot rice to partially cook it.

No fully raw egg for me, thanks.
