Apparently, this is quite the hot-button topic based on conversation among our staff members.

Absolutely no to deviled, here.

Fried, scrambled, poached are perfectly fine for me.

All ways. Apparently some staffers don't like deviled and others have never even had egg salad, which makes me wonder if they even know the difference between Miracle Whip and Duke's mayo (savages).

When I was a kid, it had to be scrambled.

I still like scrambled now, though I prefer a slightly runny yolk I can dip my toast in.

I also enjoy deviled eggs, but I'm not going to go out of my to make/eat some.

I agree with all of this sentiment.  #Teamwood... wait.

I overdosed on deviled eggs during a summer party at my cousin's house in 1993. I haven't had one since. It was a bad scene. Same with Egg Salad... since it's close to what a deviled egg's "filling" is, it turns the stomach to even think about it. 

I usually go scrambled or in omelet form, but a regular ol' fried egg every once in a while is also good. Especially on a burger.

Any way but normally scrambled or over easy in the morning. 

I will devour as many deviled eggs as possible given the opportunity.

Over medium (don't like runny whites) and deviled (which is kind of more of a recipe).   I also like semi wet scrambled.

Fried over easy, scrambled, omelets, boiled, poached and best of all, pickled with a draft beer! Egg salad is OK as long as you leave out the onions.

Soft boiled and in a bowl of Ramen.

Over easy and on top of waffles or pancakes so I can get yolk over everything.

Scrambled in a sammich with bacon.

I'm a casserole with potatoes, sausage, cheese, and other goodness.

I am particularly fond of omelets in hotels with a bunch of weirdos that like cheap cars.

 

And yes, deviled.  Who TF doesn't like that? Weirdos

Deviled eggs are at the top of my list but almost any form of egg is good in my eyes. My go to for breakfast is over-medium with a piece of toast to soak up the runny yolk.

I love eggs. I will happily eat them any way you care to serve them.

Scrambled with mayo for an egg sammich

Fried in bacon grease for a BLT n egg.

Fried in bacon grease for an egg-on-toast

Every now and then a peal'm and eat'm hard boiled is good.

Quiche - meh. Depends.

How I like them depends greatly on what is accompanying them.  Eggs Benedict?  lightly Poached.  Huevos Rancheros?  Over Easy.  I want that runny yolk action to contribute to the "sauce".  I like a good omelete too.  I make my own pickled eggs (hard boiled).  I am not aware of a common preparation that I won't eat.

My wife, on the other hand, HATES runny eggs and is disgusted when I eat something with liquid yokes.

Over medium or scrambled/omelette, full stop. I occasionally succumb to the European fetish of putting a fried egg on top of, well, almost anything; a nice strip steak is a good carrier. The only one I object to without reservation is pizza, in spite of its popularity on the other side of the pond.

Don't care for deviled eggs because I don't like mayo and/or mustard.  

Don't really like scrambled unless it is has some breakfast meat mixed in.  Hard boiled is good with a bit of Everglades.  

Cast iron skillet, bacon grease, over easy seasoned with Everglades (seeing a pattern).  That's my jam all day long.

My mom makes the absolute best deviled eggs. (Actually, everything she makes is the best.)

My go-to at Waffle House: over hard or just a cheese omelette.

Another favorite way to enjoy eggs: matzo brei. (Look it up.)

my choice is scrambled at breakfast. 

I make over medium for my dogs so I can poke the yoke and it takes them longer to eat as they lick the bowl clean.  i do like over medium for a burger or on top of chiliquilles.  

egg salad for lunch only on days when I'm not going to the gym.  Nothing worse than egg salad burps when running on a treadmill.

Easier to say, I don't like them Rocky Balboa style.  Other than that, we're good.

Has anybosy said soft boiled, in an egg cup, with toast sticks?  Or coddled?

Pretty much any way, as long as the yolk isn't runny. 

Deviled eggs are awesome, but I'm not allowed to eat them if we're at a party (which is about the only occasion to have them).

I'll brag, and say that I make awesome omelets. I was cooking for the family, at my daughter's villa wedding in Vegas, and my ex-wife's husband said it was the best he's ever had, so I'll take the credit.

Not overcooked, but no runny whites.

Other than that, it's a matter of context; poached on corned beef hash or a benedict, fried or scrambled as part of a breakfast plate, deviled are good, egg salad is good (I like both traditional and made with avocado instead of most of the mayo)...
