Fried Egg Eaters Have Higher Sex Drive
According to research done by the British Egg Industry Council, the type of eggs you eat are an indicator of your personality. The research was conducted on 1,010 adults in the UK and used a mathematical technique called regression analysis to identify correlations between personality types and preferred egg styles.
From our perspective these findings should be taken with a grain of salt.... or should we say salt and pepper, or perhaps some ketchup or Tobasco. Studies like these seem more about generating publicity for egg producers than anything else. But if you find this thing kind of fun, here's a summary of the findings as reported on the British Lion Egg Products web site:
Poached eggs
The average poached egg-eater is likely to have two children and no more than one older brother or sister. They are found all across the UK and are more likely to be women than men. A taste for poached eggs increases as one gets older. Generally, eaters are also most likely to be outgoing socially and energetic extroverts. They may have a tendency to wear decorative clothing and prefer upbeat and lively music. They are also probably happier than most.
Boiled eggs
The average boiled egg-eater is more likely to be a woman than a man. They could be either working or upper class, and come from anywhere in the UK other than the South East of England. Boiled egg-eaters scored lower on the trait of conscientiousness and thus have a tendency to be more disorganised, careless and impulsive. They may also run a greater risk of getting divorced.
Fried eggs
Fried egg-eaters are most likely to be younger, male and come from Scotland. Fried egg fans are most frequently found among the skilled working classes and have older brothers or sisters. They are typically open to new experiences, creative, curious and imaginative. They are also more likely to have higher memorable dream recall, are better informed about sex, have wider sexual experiences and stronger sex drives.
Scrambled eggs
Scrambled egg-eaters are most likely to live south of Birmingham, with the exception of London, and are least likely to come from Edinburgh and Glasgow. Scrambled eggs are the favourite egg cooking choice for those aged 20 to 39 and eaters were more likely than other types to be in managerial or senior-level jobs and also to own their own home. Scrambled egg eaters were more likely to be less neurotic but also more guarded and less open.
Omelettes
A middle class favourite, the omelette is eaten less frequently than all other egg dishes and finds its greatest fans in Sheffield, Liverpool and Newcastle. Omelette eaters tend to be reliable, well organised and self-disciplined. They are more likely to have tidy homes. Omelette fans may live longer and are less likely to get divorced.

In addition to the title point, I should mention that eggs especially fried ones give you a surprising energy. I have tested it on my husband :)
