Default Scrambled egg question

I was eating that the Golden Corral buffet and thought it was OK to eat the "scrambled eggs". I then saw them bring out new "scrambled eggs" and they basically opened a bag that they had boiled the "scrambled eggs" in and dumped them into the pan. So, clearly there is something more to them, like fillers and other stuff. Does anyone know the carb count of the "scrambled egg" mix that buffets use?

Thanks

I would check the nutritional information section if they have a website.

OK, thanks. Website says 2 carbs (2 sugars) per 3.5 oz serving but doesn't list ingredients.

Default Re: Scrambled egg question

I found a site for a company that sells similar products and the ingredients for their scrambled eggs are:

Whole Egg, Water, Skim Milk Powder, Corn Syrup, Salt, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Sodium Phosphates, Annatto

Guess I'll have to stay away from the scrambled eggs at the buffet.

For anyone that's interested in the website: http://www.eggsolutions.ca/products.htm
