Job 6:6

Unsavoury. Or, “tasteless,” “insipid,” “unseasoned.” Job considers his complaints a justifiable expression of repugnance at the diet on which he has been called to subsist.

White of an egg. Heb. rir challamuth, the meaning of which is obscure. Rir means slimy juice or saliva (see 1 Sam. 21:13). Challamuth is taken by some to refer to a plant with thick, slimy juice, called purslane. The rabbis take challamuth to refer to the yolk of an egg, and hence rir to the slimy part of the egg, namely the white. Since challamuth occurs only here, it is difficult to arrive at its meaning with any degree of certainty.
