There is no evidence to show that egg whites help with burns. In fact, raw eggs can introduce micro-organisms into the open wound, causing infection. Instead, immerse your burn in cold water and cover loosely with dry gauze.

However, if you're hungry, don't care about infection, and your burn is relatively fresh, crack an egg on there and get some sunny-side-up action.

Bon apetite!
