Heh. No, really. I make stuffing without egg. (My mother never put an egg
in hers, either.) I make cornbread stuffing. My mother made white bread
stuffing. Butter, lots of it, melted in water and combined with broth or
stock to moisten the stuffing crumbs. Herbs, seasonings. In my case
sometimes cooked wild rice and/or cooked sausage. No eggs. Ever. Sorry to
disappoint!
