skip eggs function

I'm doing a code challenge to test my skills as a fledgling coder trying to learn new concepts. The challenge is to write a function that will remove the first two strings 'egg' from the end of an array. I'm doing this from a youtube video and was wondering if my solution does the same thing that the youtube video had referenced as its correct answer. i see the same out put in console.log(): I will post my code first and then the "correct" answer second.

  // My code starts here.
      function noFuckingEggs(array) {
        let emptyArray = [];
        let counter = 0;

        array.reverse();
        
        for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
          if (array[i] === "egg") {
            counter++;
            if (counter > 2) {
              emptyArray.push(array[i]);
            }
          } else {
            emptyArray.push(array[i]);
          }
        }
        return emptyArray.reverse();
      }
      console.log(noFuckingEggs(["egg", "apple", "egg", "egg", "ham"]));

  // My code starts here.
      function noFuckingEggs(array) {
        let emptyArray = [];
        let counter = 0;

        array.reverse();
        
        for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
          if (array[i] === "egg") {
            counter++;
            if (counter > 2) {
              emptyArray.push(array[i]);
            }
          } else {
            emptyArray.push(array[i]);
          }
        }
        return emptyArray.reverse();
      }
      console.log(noFuckingEggs(["egg", "apple", "egg", "egg", "ham"]));

the youtubers github repo answer is below.

   function removeEgg(foods) {
        // To remove the last 2 'egg', reverse the array first.
        const reversedFoods = foods.reverse();

        const result = [];
        let eggsRemoved = 0;

        for (let i = 0; i < reversedFoods.length; i++) {
          if (reversedFoods[i] === 'egg' && eggsRemoved < 2) {
            eggsRemoved++;
            continue;
          }

          result.push(reversedFoods[i]);
        }

        // At the end, remember to .reverse() back the result.
        return result.reverse();
      }

      console.log(removeEgg(['egg', 'apple', 'egg', 'egg', 'ham']));

   function removeEgg(foods) {
        // To remove the last 2 'egg', reverse the array first.
        const reversedFoods = foods.reverse();

        const result = [];
        let eggsRemoved = 0;

        for (let i = 0; i < reversedFoods.length; i++) {
          if (reversedFoods[i] === 'egg' && eggsRemoved < 2) {
            eggsRemoved++;
            continue;
          }

          result.push(reversedFoods[i]);
        }

        // At the end, remember to .reverse() back the result.
        return result.reverse();
      }

      console.log(removeEgg(['egg', 'apple', 'egg', 'egg', 'ham']));

I don't have anyone to give me feedback to see if i'm on the track or not. I've tried asking AI but between them getting confused and just straight up halucinating wrong values I need some human help. I think i got it right but because the code looks different i'm not sure.
