Are you concerned about your kids eating their eggs? The Egg Robot is here to help. The Egg Robot comes with the robot suit and the spoon, but you have to provide the eggs, of course. It's a newish toy that claims to make eating eggs more fun for your kids, thus they will now eat their eggs (it's really nothing more than a fancied up egg cup). That's assuming you have trouble getting your kids to eat eggs, otherwise it's just a novelty item that'd hang around and clutter up your house.
I know I didn't like eggs when I was a kid, except hard cooked eggs. There wasn't very much my mom could do to convince me otherwise, but I don't remember that being such a big concern for her. Maybe you could put other foodstuff in the robot to make your child want to eat whatever it is, something a little more important, like vegetables. Do you think this is a good idea?

I was one of those kids this would have been directed to, back in the day. I *hated* eggs and wouldn't eat them til I developed better taste buds and some reason when I was in my teens.
It was the texture entirely though. And no bloody toy would or could have changed that reality.
