Another gadget...........think I will pass on the egg cup.These days you want your egg completly done unless you use the pasturized eggs. When I do boiled eggs, I just use cute little small glass bowls that would hold a scoop of ice cream. Is it me that only thinks there are way too many gadgets out there for eating. Crowding the table means less food!! LOL......

You're supposed to cook your eggs solid? Someone should have told me. I love eggs over easy with WF's tasty sundried tomato and garlic gluten-free bread and some butter.

Honestly, I'd rather eat my not-totally-cooked eggs that way, rather than sitting in some odd little cup. If I want eggs in a cup, I want 'eggs in a cup', which is basically just eating egg salad with a spoon...

Cooking eggs over easy is safe if you let the yolk thicken slghtly instead of just flipping over and out of the pan. My mother use to scramble eggs beat the egg in a bowl cook it and put the cooked egg back in the bowl she beat it in.........But never got sick. im not very fond of eggs. But over easy and dip my toast in is good on certain Sunday mornings. But hard boiled is the way to go. you can buy pasturized eggs and eat them as raw as you want. I use them during the holidays to make eggnog. Of course they are more expensive.So Hawk keeping eating oyur lovely eggs, no cup style.. LOL

If you think THIS was designed for men...
my mother (queen of tacky treasures) has an egg cup that looks like a *very* curvy woman laying on a beach towel, wearing a white bikini. I'll let you guess where the eggs go.

So, the story goes that there was a car-themed restaurant and they served their dishes on chromed plates that looked like hubcaps. And they served brunch including their famous Eggs Benedict, which really looked nice on the plate. Which just goes to show you...

...there's no plate like chrome for the hollandaise.

(I've been wanting to use this line for a while. :-)

Are you freaking serious? What ever happened to boiling a bunch of eggs in a pot and then just peeling them with your fingers? Geez...we peel them and eat them with a little salt or cut them up for salads like egg, tuna, potato or chicken salad. No cup involved.

hey, what a nice discussion on our favourite subject!

we collect egg cups and we have a blog about them, maybe you'd like to check it to discover some other nice models... we've been focusing on modern design lately.

hopefully it should give you some reasons to stop eating eggs with your hands!

cheers and thanks!
