    It should not affect your cold either way...if that's what you want, then eat it...your body needs the nourishment/energy...

    Eat whatever you want. The cold should have no bearing on what you eat unless you have the flu. You may want to try chicken broth (noodles do not matter) and it works like magic. It is good for colds and the flu. I would have the broth rather than the egg salad as the broth has a special agent in it that seems to help to get rid of the cold faster and make you feel better faster. All the best.

    Sure. Just avoid milk, cheese and yogurt which can cause more mucus production,

    It should make no difference at all.
