Eating eggs with soy milk may lead to excessive protein intake and digestive discomfort, while combining eggs with bananas might cause bloating and slow down digestion.
Eggs are a nutritious food source, good for health, and easily accessible, making them a favorite among many people. However, there are some combinations of eggs with other foods that not only fail to provide a pleasant experience but can also be harmful to health for various reasons, according to news outlets NDTV and Times of India. Here are some foods that should not be consumed together with eggs.

Citrus fruits

It is best to avoid combining eggs with citrus fruits like oranges or grapefruits, as the acidity in these fruits can cause the eggs to curdle when cooked together.

Red wine

Eggs and red wine are typically not a harmonious combination. The tannins in red wine can conflict with the flavor of eggs and create an unpleasant taste sensation.

Sugary cereal

While eggs can be part of a balanced breakfast, combining them with sugary cereals may not be the healthiest choice. It’s better to opt for whole grain cereals or low-sugar cereals if you are eating eggs for breakfast.

Alcohol

Avoid consuming alcoholic beverages that have raw eggs like eggnog, as there is an increased risk of foodborne illness from the potential Salmonella contamination in raw eggs.

Soy milk

Eggs and soy milk are both high in protein. Combining the two can lead to a protein spike in the body, causing an excess of protein, which can lead to digestive issues.

Pickled foods

The bold, aromatic flavors of pickled or fermented foods can overshadow the delicate taste of eggs. Furthermore, the spiciness of these foods can easily overpower the flavor of the eggs.

Tea

It’s best to avoid combining tea and eggs, as the tannins in tea can inhibit the absorption of nutrients from the eggs. Furthermore, this combination may cause gas and acidity.

Bananas

If you are someone who regularly eats eggs and bananas together, it’s time to pause and reconsider. This food combination can cause bloating and may take longer to digest. Therefore, it’s best to enjoy them separately as part of a healthy diet.
