Whenever people talk about their favorite kind of eggs, it’s rare that you hear someone say that sunny side up eggs are their favorite. This is because there are so many other egg varieties that are popular, such as scrambled and the omelet. In addition, people tend to avoid sunny side up eggs because they get quite messy. If you’re one of those people, here’s why you should definitely give sunny side up eggs a chance.

The Texture is Diverse

While scrambled eggs and omelets have a fairly uniform texture throughout the whole thing, sunny side up eggs are a bit more inconsistent—and we say that in a good way. From the sizzling egg white to the runny yolk, eating a sunny side up egg is very much an adventure. And ultimately, isn’t that what you want in a good breakfast?

There are Ways to Elevate the “Mess”

Instead of viewing the runny yolk as a mess to be “dealt with”, why not view it as an opportunity to be enjoyed? A sunny side up yolk should be used as texture filler when eating eggs with toast, especially if you don’t enjoy toast that’s too dry. When you embrace the mess with love, incredible things happen.
