Dear Poor Lucky Me,
I like the idea of hard boiled eggs, but whenever I cook them and sit down to take a bit I sort of get grossed out. If I’m at a salad bar and they’ve got them already sliced up or, even better, deviled, I’ll dive in and eat dozens. But it’s just not the same at home.
Are do-it-yourself hard boiled eggs different in some way? Or am I just stuck in my own head?
With Great Respect,

Unless cooking is a hobby of yours, I think that there are a lot of foods that are great in restaurants but weird at home. Beef Carpaccio is a good example. Even if you buy high quality ingredients and consider yourself a great cook, I probably won’t come over for beef carpaccio. I mean, no offense, but it’s just a little too real for me, you know?
However, I think I can solve your hard boiled egg dilemma. You need these special instruments that peels and slices those bitches up like Easter at the country club. Check it out here.
The thing is, most problems in our American lives can be solved by something sold on television. You can learn how to apply for grants, give your hair more volume, cook a whole chicken in 20 minutes, get your clothes incredibly clean, learn how to invest in real estate and make smoothies. All from the comfort of your couch. I’m waiting for the infomercial about at home liposuction and do it yourself calf implants. You’ve just got to patient, the T.V. marketers got your back.
Sincerely,
Dear Hungry in Hammond,
Poor Lucky Me
