Eggs are not dairy and coffee is okay!

Here we are on day five of the Whole30 and I hope everyone is feeling great!  Some of the comments and questions I have received are so different from the last W30.  However, this was the first time I had people asking me about eggs.  Eggs are sold in the refrigerated section but are not dairy. 


From Webster...

dairy

noun, often attributive \ˈder-ē\
: a farm that produces milk
: a place where milk is kept and butter or cheese is made
: a company that sells milk and foods made from milk (such as butter and cheese)
plural dair·ies

Full Definition of DAIRY

1
:  a room, building, or establishment where milk is kept and butter or cheese is made
2
a :  the department of farming or of a farm that is concerned with the production of milk, butter, and cheese
b :  a farm devoted to such production
3
:  an establishment for the sale or distribution chiefly of milk and milk products



So, eggs are okay on the W30.  Please be using them as a source of protein!  If you chose not to eat them for other reasons, so be it, but they are not considered dairy.  Yeah! 
Coffee beans are not the same as legumes, I will just let the W30 team explain it here
If I didn't get to have coffee, W30 would be a completely different challenge for me! 
What are your thoughts about having coffee and eggs on the W30?
