Help - is or are

I just have a quick question.
Is this correct, �My favourite snack is eggs �?
Favourite snack is obviously singular, but eggs is plural...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks :)

Hi Phil, The verb must always match the subject. So I would say "My favourite snack is eggs" or "eggs are my favourite snack" Hope it helps.......by the way aren �t you a native english speaker?? Bye bye!
