Full Belly doesn't ask the all important question regarding this kitchen gadget - WHY? Why on earth would anyone want to make hard boiled eggs square? Or at least 'edged' as results as displayed via this flickr set do not seem that successful.
It is a Chinese invention by the look of the packet but Full Belly has tracked down an online stockist. The Gadget Source has it listed for for $2.99.

Ever tried to eat a hard-boiled egg on an inclined plane? It ROLLS AWAY.

I have been composing a post about this device for a while but have yet to post it bc it is an emotional topic for me.
I grew up with one of these and they are still made the same way. My Granny had one in the 1980's and I think it was a weird Nouvelle Cuisine fad type deal. But I loved it.
