The Sincerest Form of Flattery - Maybe Not!

Tonight (Friday) I was walking through a local mall and decided to go into the Bed Bath & Beyond store. To my surprise, I saw the first product to copy Betsy’s Eggie product; only this product is called “Boiley EGG Boiler” by Harold Import Company, Inc.

How can they sell this, you ask? Well, the process looks similar to Eggie; however the only difference that I could see is the heat source uses a microwave oven, not boiling water.

Thanks John! Love that you have Eggie’s back!!! ;-) I’ve actually seen a similar thing to that with longer legs. I have also seen picks of it exploding in the microwave. Apparently, you have to put a pin hole thru the top of the egg or it erupts. Plus, the one similar that I saw uses the egg inside of it’s egg shell.

Yeah, that product line has been around forever and a day though. It was still Betsy’s genius no matter who boils the egg.
