I can't stand them... the taste, the texture, the look... all are
unappealing to me. Bleh!

Raw eggs are much harder to clean off Bush/Cheney signs.

7. I hate em
Unless I add mayo, relish, salt and pepper and slap it between some bread.

I never understood how people could eat easter eggs strait-up with salt. Hard, dry yokes are nauseating.

11. I like pickled eggs
The quintessential redneck dive snack. I really think they're quite tasty though.

14. This is what I do
I buy a jar of pickled beets and save the brine. Peel some eggs and pop them in the jar for about a week. If I need to add some more liquid, about 1/2 water to between 1/8-1/4 cup white vinegar.
Now that's hillbilly! :9

17. With salt and pepper
Edited on Thu Jun-10-04 01:19 AM by HeLovedBigBrother
I can't cook them myself, I always F#@% them up. So they're always a treat, by default.
