We occasionally have boiled eggs for breakfast, and I'm 61 and my husband is 79! However, I always have some hard boiled eggs handy in the fridge, as they make a quick, easy, low fat yet filling snack during the day, and of course, if we want a quick sandwich, there they are.
The eggs here in Spain are all free range, and they're very cheap, so when we go to the UK I always take a couple of dozen with me, because not only are they more expensive in the UK, they're not so tasty and they don't keep so well.
