omelet cooking questions

At work, our cafeteria has one of those omelet stations where an chef will prepare your omelet while you wait with the toppings of your choice.  Most morning I like to get a spinach and cheese omelet. He defaults to brushing the pans with melted butter before cooking.  You can ask him to use Pam instead, but he sprays so much it is a thick layer on the bottom of the pan.  Would you opt for the butter instead of the Pam since he uses so much?

You then have a choice of regular eggs, egg whites, or egg beaters.  which is the healthier choice?

well i think technically the egg beaters are the healthiest...but eggs in general are pretty good for us so i think it would be just fine no matter which you choose...as for the pam or butter just ask him to use less..after all its your food and you are paying for it!

I would choose the butter and egg whites. Butter is good for us - Pam - mostly chemical. Why not use the "natural" foods.

i would choose the butter just less of it, and the real eggs, why use a bunch of chemicals in your diet? i have been working very hard over the last 2 years to get whole foods, and not chemicals out of our food...and now with this surgery, they want me drinking all kinds of things that are sugar free, but they are full of chemcials so i am a bit limited as to what i can eat, but i am getting there...i would just has him to use just a littel butter
have a great dauy
