Description

Garden Vegetable Flavor Egg Beaters Egg Substitute is a product designed to replace traditional eggs in various cooking recipes, especially for those looking to reduce cholesterol intake or avoid eggs for dietary or allergic reasons. This substitute is primarily made from pasteurized egg whites, enriched with a blend of natural extracts and flavors that mimic the fresh and light taste of garden vegetables, such as bell peppers, spinach, and chives.

The origin of Egg Beaters is in the United States, where it emerged as a healthy alternative for egg consumption, eliminating the cholesterol-containing yolk. Since then, it has become popular in various countries, including several Spanish-speaking ones, due to its versatility in the kitchen and its healthier nutritional profile.

Among its properties, it stands out for its low fat and cholesterol content, high protein contribution derived from egg whites, and the inclusion of natural flavors that provide a vegetable touch without adding solid ingredients that could alter the final texture of the preparations. It is ideal for omelets, scrambles, quiches, and other dishes where egg is used as a base.

In different regions of Latin America, this type of product may have varied but similar conceptual names, such as "egg replacement", "liquid egg substitute", or "flavored liquid egg white". Although there is no exact universal synonym, the description usually focuses on the product's function rather than a unique name.
