    Few things in life are as disgusting as a hard-boiled yolk.

    1. admin November 23, 2009 at 10:57 pm

      I am anti-egg in general. When I deluded myself into thinking I was going to get into shape, I gagged down egg whites every morning, but it took a lot of effort to convince myself to eat them. Ugh.

  2. princessgeek November 23, 2009 at 10:49 pm

    MMM. Scotch eggs.

    1. argonel November 24, 2009 at 1:28 am

      I agree, not only would I eat it, I have eaten them and paid for the privilege.

  3. dslartoo November 23, 2009 at 10:51 pm

    As much as I love both sausage and eggs (had ’em for breakfast this morning, as a matter of fact), eggs should only be eaten scrambled or as an omelet. Hard-boiled, NEVER.

    So speaks The Phil.

    cheers,
    (The) Phil

      I am not a fan of the egg at all, Sam I Am.

    Scotch eggs are delicious. I am speaking from wonderful, atherosclerosis-inducing experience.

    1. admin November 23, 2009 at 11:01 pm

      Would nacho cheez injected with a syringe enhance or reduce the overall experience?

      1. uncledisgusting November 24, 2009 at 7:29 am

        Nacho cheese is made from melted “my little ponies” so probably.

        In my world, scotch eggs are the kind of late night garage food only eaten when one is desperately hungry.

        1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:31 am

          I would have to be more than desperately hungry. I would have to be past the point of attempting to eat dirt. Ugh, they look SO foul.

  5. shadowstitch November 23, 2009 at 10:56 pm

    HNGGGGGGGGGG

    Oh man, I would totally eat this. Even more if they deep fried it inside of dough. And added cheese. And maybe doused it with gravy.

      How would you feel about a ranch dipping sauce?

      1. shadowstitch November 23, 2009 at 11:02 pm

        Re: HNGGGGGGGGGG

        Also good. If they could put this on a stick I’d be 100% sold on the concept.

          I like the cut of your jib.

        You know, we’re 10 months out from the next Puyallup Fair. Still plenty of time to perfect the recipe, build a little kiosk, create some signage. It will be *the* novelty snack of 2010!

        You could offer a dessert option. With jimmies or something.

        1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:33 am

          Re: HNGGGGGGGGGG

          This is not a terrible idea. We both know that Puyallup fairgoers will eat ANYTHING. Especially if that something has jimmies on top.

      Surely we took you to Dan McGuinness for Scotch eggs at least once when you lived in Memphis?

    I am going to begin a mission to veganize this.

    1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:26 am

      Well, there’s vegan egg substitutes, and vegan sausage substitutes, right? So I suppose it’s POSSIBLE. Though the egg substitutes aren’t in egg form, so I don’t know how easy it would be to hard-boil…

      1. madamecacoon November 24, 2009 at 5:50 pm

        The vegan egg substitutes only work for baking. There is no hard-boilable vegan egg out there. I’ve made pretty good fried egg sandwich analogs with tofu, which is probably what I’d use for the egg: firm blended up with nutritional yeast for the yolk and silken for the white.

        It would be difficult but well worth the effort.

  7. electriclime November 23, 2009 at 11:43 pm

    You are so very awesome.

    I’m a little disgusted that this actually has a name “Scotch Egg” it makes me want to puke.

    1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:27 am

      I think anything with the word ‘scotch’ in it should involve actual scotch. Call me crazy, but I was hoping for some booze in the mix. Or at least a little scotchguard.

    1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:30 am

      I find the name to be misleading, frankly.

  8. aquariumspast November 24, 2009 at 2:15 am

    This poll answer came close to reality…

    I was better off not knowing what that was…

    1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:29 am

      Just the picture was enough?

  9. confusednazgul November 24, 2009 at 12:40 am

    I love eggs, and I love (turkey) sausage, but I don’t think I could bring myself to eat this.

    1. admin November 24, 2009 at 7:28 am

      What about combining the two do you find repulsive?

      1. confusednazgul November 24, 2009 at 3:30 pm

        Seems like it would have a very weird texture, plus it’s probably salty and/or greasy. And I like my sausage with maple syrup!

  10. djunchan November 25, 2009 at 5:25 am

    it’s like astronaut breakfast.

  11. cheeserock November 24, 2009 at 11:43 pm

    scotch egg, of course! yum yum yum

  12. nicodemusreborn November 28, 2009 at 3:20 am

    It’s Egg and Sausage, conveniently together for your gustatory enjoyment. Looks great!
