Why Are Eggs Considered a Dairy Product?


My mother and I had a huge debate on this topic during dinner this evening. We came up with two theories that could possibly be the correct answer. Lauren just called and I randomly blurted out this baffling mystery to her. I also asked my dad. He had no idea. He's a bit of a dummy so that's okay. Here are the three available theories. Pick the one that you think makes the most sense. And I advise every single motherfucker who reads this to give me an opinion on whose theory you agree with most.

Christina's Mom's Theory:
Eggs don't particularly fit into any other food group - they're not vegetables, they're not exactly meat, they're not fruit, and they aren't bread. So what other group is there for them to fall into? The dairy group. She also states that eggs and milk are both liquids and you could stir them.

Christina's Theory:
Dairy products are milk, and milk comes from animals. So do eggs. But eggs aren't quite exactly animals yet, and milk definitely is not an animal. In conclusion, dairy products are products that come from animals, but aren't really animals. But I'm not sure if you could consider dung to be a part of this category.

Lauren's Theory:
Dairy products all have a considerable amount of vitamin D. More so than any other food in any of the other food groups.

And what about butter? It's made from some dairy products, but the majority of substance in it is fat, overconquering the nutritional value of the food, so I can justify that it is indeed part of the junk food group.

Now here's a food pyramid clearly stating that eggs are part of the the protein food group:
