English term or phrase: Egg beaters
Hola, estoy traduciendo un menú y uno de los platos se llama
Omelet Map y los ingredientes son
Denver, Ham and Cheese, Plain, served with Hash Browns (Egg beaters available upon request)
no entiendo bien lo que quiere decir Egg beaters en este caso, porque no creo que haga referencia a un batidor de huevos ya que es un menú listo, he encontrado los siguiente:
http://www.eggbeaters.com/products.jsp
será que se puede agregar esto al menú? alguna idea de alguien que ya lo probó?
gracias!

Egg Beaters (sustituto/alternativa al huevo)
Explanation:
Egg Beaters is the name of a brand of egg substitute/replacement for people who, for some reason, can't eat egg.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egg_Beaters

Since it's a brand, the best option is to leave the name as-is and, if necessary, to add a short description in parentheses. See an example of the brand name being used in a Spanish book:

neutral  Alex Lago: It's not an egg substitute, it is prepared with actual eggs but has no yolks but they do something to it (apart from to the "whites" version) that makes it look like egg, so it si more like a "sucedáneo de huevo a base de clara de huevo"
