What happened?

I became intolerant to them. Small quantities as an ingredient are fine so I can still eat cake thank fuck, but poached eggs on toast or scrambled eggs are right out.

I'm genuinely sad to hear this - eggs are wonderful things. Are there veggie alternatives that sort of feel the same?

No
I don't miss them much at any other meal, only at breakfast. Sometimes at the weekend I get a dressed crab and have crab on toast, which is nice, but different. Occasionally I think I've found something to take their place but I never have. Going out for breakfast/brunch is also a bit fraught as 99% of what's on the menu will involve eggs, and not be worth bothering with without them. I tend to opt for bakery type places if possible so I can have an almond croissant or something.
It's also why I continue to eat fish when I've largely stopped eating meat.

Sorry - just finished eating it. I managed the whole pie, and at 1,496kcal it will be your fault that I get fat.

Crab on toast and two rather small croissants. I went a bit mad in reaction to yesterday's crap breakfast.

RubyToogood You loss of eggs makes me sad too. I think an egg based breakfast type meal is my favourite food. I’d choose some kind of egg based breakfas as my last supper.
My current favourite is:
Post Office three-seed toast with a thin layer of Grey Poupet mustard and then melted manchego cheese.
Piled up with buttery cooked mushrooms and chopped parsley tossed in the pan to wilt it.
Fried egg top, with the egg all lacy around the edged and the yolk just starting to go creamy thick.
Two or three salty anchovy fillets on the side.
Black pepper all over.
A sharp knife to cut through all the layers at once.
A huge mug of black Lady Grey tea with an ice cube to make it the perfect temperature.
And then breakfast pudding:
Thin cut crispy toast with slabs of fridge cold unsalted butter and great big dollops of bitter Seville Orange marmalade, each mouthful alternating with mouthfuls of the rest of the huge mug of tea.
So good.
ThIs morning there was no cheese so I had some thin pancetta type bacon cut into pieces amd cooked in with the mushrooms, and no anchovies.
Just as good.

Interestingly, I developed this intolerance when/shortly after I was given a course of naproxen which gave me really bad stomach pain. I find this suspicious.
