When you lead off with "do not eat the eggs, " you already have lost me. I used to make the breakfast buffet at a Best Western Hotel. Although, they weren't powdered eggs. They are pasteurized. They come in a bag in liquid form and you boil them and they break them apart. And they are one of the best foods I look forward to whenever I travel! Hehe

I was a chef at a 3 star hotel for 6 years. Never once did we serve powdered anything. We used liquid eggs for omelets and scrambles but it was real eggs mixed with a little milk. Our omelet ingredients were always fresh and never preprepared or frozen. We used top quality Hormel bacon and sausage and our potatoes and hash browns were prepared from scratch. You also didn't need have to be a guest to eat in our restaurant, and our $9.99 all you can eat breakfast was the best kept secret in town.

In other words, pretty much everything at the buffet is suspect.

I really don’t care what y’all tell me not to order il still gonna order it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Been eating at hotel buffets 5 days a week for 40 years. Never got sick. Everything she says is a potential issue. Like crashing during flying.

I stayed at a hotel last month and even if the eggs were powdered they still tasted pretty damn good.

[LyleFrancisDelp]

what you’re saying is never order anything from any breakfast buffet EVER.

[steff]

Fresh eggs carry the risk of bacterial contamination, not powdered or liquid eggs. Liquid eggs are pasteurized to prevent this. As long as the warmer is kept at the proper temperature there should be no problem.

Fortunately, me and my family have never gotten sick after eating at the hotel buffet. The amount we pay is so high and we make sure there is free breakfast and internet and you bet we will not miss the free food. Yes, there were times when it did not taste all that but we made sure we were one of the first people there when the food came out.

Basically you’re telling people don’t eat anything offered at these breakfast offerings

[dianewilliams]

I have eaten everything you say don't eat a a hotel buffet! Oh please! If your at a good hotel there's no problem, they must pass a health inspection! 😊😊😊

[freakied]

So don't eat the sliced lemon wedges because they've been handled by unknown workers and could spread bacteria.
But do eat the fresh sliced fruit? 😂

Best breakfast buffet I’ve ever eaten was at a Hyatt Regency in New Orleans. This was 12 years ago. Worst one was at a Luby’s in San Antonio about four or five years ago.

My job meant a different hotel every night most of the time. Hotel breakfasts range from amazing to abysmal, even within the same brands. It is pre pack, shelf stable and can be lunch or end up in the go bag, grab it! Always good to have.

According to this video, the entire buffet is seething with salmonella.

[mannyvazquez]

Most hotels don't have the equipment and staff to prepare food fresh. Most items come precooked or frozen and is heated up in ovens or microwave. Also since breakfast is complementary so hotels look for ways to keep cost down otherwise you would pay a much higher rate per night for better quality.

[billputt]

Stop trying to scare people about this stuff...and some people need to stop panicking about everything...yes there's a minute risk. Is anything going to happen? Probably not.

[witchy]

The salmonella and powdered egg thing does not make sense, at all. The problem with salmonella and NORMAL eggs not being cooked properly is due to the heat not killing the bacteria already in the eggs. While yes if its not kept at the right temperature there will be bacteria growth, its likely not salmonella because those powdered eggs were already heated to the point whatever might have been in the original eggs was killed off during processing. Otherwise powdered eggs would not be shelf stable.

I've eaten MRE's for weeks and have eaten goat with farina out of a pan, with my fingers, with a group of Nigerian men who were eating out of the SAME pan with THEIR fingers. Nobody died. Well nobody died from the food
