Eggs – Are egg whites generally available at the store

eggs

Can you buy egg whites at the store, or must I take the yolk out my own? I assume if so they would be sold in some sort of carton.

My plan is to just use them for scrambled egg whites in the morning. It just helps speed up the process this way for work days.

Many stores sell egg whites. Organic Valley Liquid Egg Whites as an example.

They can be both pasteurized (useful if you want to use the whites in a non-cooked application) and non-pasteurized.

In my US grocery stores, I find egg whites in the refrigerated section, near the eggs in cardboard cartons, similar to those that cream comes in.

Depending on your application, beware of egg substitutes; these aren't quite the same thing.
