I was googling low carb smoothies and saw something about egg cream smoothies. Anyone try those before?

What on earth is an egg cream?

Instead of whey they use egg white protein powder.

Egg creams? Like the ones from an old-timey soda fountain? I can't imagine them replacing a smoothie as the ones we'd enjoy as kids at the throwback diner my dad took us to were far too sweet and were made with flavored syrups. I always got chocolate egg creams. Those didn't have any eggs (or cream) at all - it was the seltzer water and milk combo that made that lovely foam on top.

Unless there's a new thing out there and I've missed it? It happens, I'm kind of a homebody these days.

Oh my gosh, I missed a totally weird branch of the smoothie obsession! Who knew? Pages and pages of recipes online and lots of rave reviews. I say, what do you have to lose?

Try it out and post your recipe if you enjoyed it - surely someone else could be curious and would benefit.

Think I will try it out. Not much luck with whey shakes.

I'm from NY which is famous for our egg creams. I'll experiment with a recipe and will post once perfected.
