Egg protein is more expensive so not normally a subsitute in daily diet.

However, melamine may be.
I think you are thinking of 'egg dishes'. Many, many dishes have some egg scrambled into them in my experience, including many soups. And even if they don't, very few kitchens would not use eggs at all, and the OP is particularly concerned about contamination from using same cooking utensils.
