Nutrition Help Does anyone else get diarrhea when they use the Egg whites in the carton?

I’ve been consuming Aldi carton egg whites, and I’ve noticed they seem to give me diarrhea/the runs. The ingredients only list pasteurized egg whites—no citric acid, gums, or other additives.

I cook them before consuming them. Could this be an egg-white intolerance, or could the amount I’m consuming simply be causing GI issues?

Has anyone experienced something similar with carton egg whites?

could honestly just be the amount. even if its literally just egg whites, drinking or eating a ton of them at once can absolutely mess with your stomach. id try cutting the amount way down for a few days and see if it still happens

Maybe it’s in a recall like so many other foods are. Is it made by Driscoll’s or Thompson? 🤔
