If I have to crack it to put it in the container...why bother?!?! It's not that hard to peel eggs. I would also be skeptical of the silicone aspect.

Has anyone bought the totally awesome invention Eggies??
I totally love the idea.
They are like the Jello Eggs containers that Kraft came out with years ago.

Problem I just had with this product.
The eggs do not come out of the plastic shells smooth.
They are bubbled up *that is what it looks like.
These boil inside the shells like the reg egg shell.
Problem being... deviled eggs.. NO good. the texture and look is horrible.
Egg salad. Fine, because you chop them up.

Has anyone come up with how to boil this with out that happening.??

Haven't they've been out for quite a while now?

Saw  a review of this product on a consumer program on TV.  It scored an F.  Does not work.  Testers tried it 10 or more times and never could get the product to work.


I just saw this.... I can totally agree with what you found.
I returned them to Wal-mart...  Totally a waste of time and eggs!!!!

Old fashioned hard boiled is what we do here again....

Thanks for the heads-up on the Egglands!!  I have a bunch of coupons too!!  :thumbsup:

No gadget needed here. The secret to good, easy to peel hard-boiled eggs is always to use FRESH eggs. Simply put them in a covered pan with enough water to cover them, bring to boil, turn off the burner and let them sit  for 20 min. After 20 min. run cold water over them to cool the eggs. There is an air pocket at the large end of the egg & that is where to start peeling; shell comes off easily. AND no rubbery hard boiled eggs.

Yeah I know how to hard boil eggs...  I have to tel ya though... Lol
My mother in law... She's 87 yrs old... She doesn't do them this way. Lol
She about bit my head off the other day...lol
She does her eggs like you.. Till the boiling.
Once they are in the rolling boil stage.. She turns them off. Then let's them sit in pan till they cool.
I about died...couldn't believe how upset she got.. Lol

****she also has this pokey gadget. It pokes a tiny hole in the egg... She swears by this.

I think it's the eggs!!!!!!
No matter how we cook these eggs... They don't peel correctly.... It is like there's no membrane...and the shells are so thin. You can't get under the shell... It rips the egg... I'm so giving up on the old perfect peeled eggs..  :BangHead:

It might be the brand Walmart carries. The eggs are fine... They are also fresh... It's the blasted shell.

Lol... Wow.. I can't believe how eggs can make or brake your day.... Lol.  :crybaby2:

I saw their ad in the TV but I love to broil the egg in its natural shell and I don't find it hard to peel it. I have a technique in peeling the eggs
it takes you 2 times to test your water some water you need to add a little salt to it and some water doesn't need that
I put the egg with enough cold water to cover it and once it reach the boiling point I use the timer and leave them boiling for 5-6 minutes then I take them out run some cold water on it for a few second then take it out and leave it to dry and when its dry you can peel it so easy and the egg maintain its shape. I don't like to leave them in cold water too much because I love the egg to be hot not cold or just warm. but the most important thing is to leave it to dry.

Thanks for that tip!!!
I am going to boil more eggs in the morning...
I am going to try adding salt to the water.  I think my Mom used to do that.

Thanks!!!!!   :thumbsup:

I was curious about these too.  Glad to hear they are at Walmart - no shipping and easy to return!!!  I will look for them there to try.  My best solution to boiled eggs is buying them at the grocery store already boiled.  Egglands Best has them usually on the top shelf area of the eggs and egg whites etc.  Also there are other brands and good deals.  I travel a lot with work and there are a couple stores that when I get to town I go to the store first thing and purchase the boiled eggs and chobani yogurt.

Thank you so much for this information!!!  This would be great for my husband who drives over the road. 

The thing that shocked me was that many times I can buy more boiled eggs cheaper than buying the eggs in a carton and then having to prepare them!  Who knew!  LOL


I know huh?

I am going to check Wal-mart this week.
Wondering how they taste though....

They are plastic egg containers that you can crack an egg into... and place in a pot of water to boil just like you would boil eggs.  Only difference is.. NO PEELING shells!!!  You just open up the plastic egg.. and taaa daaa there is the hard boiled egg!! 

Infa-mercial...   lol...

Finally in Wal-Mart

And you can use egg beaters in them ! My husband and I mostly use that instead of eggs.


How did you get them to...
Not leak...
Not stick...
Cook all the way through evenly...
Not look horrible....

I tried with about 4 dozen eggs... NOT one worked...   :crybaby2:

Look forward to your response  :wave:

I love my eggies I rub canola oil or vegetable oil inside and the eggs come out smooth just like coming out of the shell.

I tried that...  Still can't get them to work.

Maybe I got a bad batch.

Mine leak.. They don't seal.
No matter how much oil I use... They stick...
And they are so yucky looking. Not like the regular hard boiled eggs look. 
Mine looked tie-dyed.....

Ahhhhhh..... 
Lol...
