"The incredible, edible egg!"

Younger readers might not remember that ad slogan, but the theme has been rattling around in my brain since I found out that today is National Egg Day. Treat yourself to a nice Eggs Benedict (which I bet is something you don't eat that often) or maybe visit IowaEgg.org for some great recipes ranging from omelets (I have my eye on this Apple, Cheddar, and Bacon one) to desserts. I used to have Fried Egg Sandwiches once a week when I was a kid. Topped with ketchup! Mmmmmmmmmm. I never put mustard on it like that recipe has, but that actually sounds pretty cool.

And don't forget that we have an egg category too.

The best way to hard-boil and egg is to...remove the water?

British inventor Simon Rhymes has created a gadget that uses four 500-watt lightbulbs to cook the eggs, rather than boiling them in water (though we all know that we don't actually boil the eggs in water, right? We just let thim sit in hot water). Rhymes' gadget cooks eggs in six minutes, then automatically chops off the top to allow people to dip their toast in the egg.

So, this is different from say, sticking your eggs in high-heat oven...how?
