That’s weird - how can 25% of people not have boiled an egg when 55% of them claim to have made a Victoria sponge? Or is it only me who puts boiled eggs in their cake?

You haven’t lived until you’ve experienced a cheeky boiled surprise cake.

Yeah, like the old saying, you have to boil a few eggs to bake a cake, right?

I stayed at a premier inn during lockdown and boiled my eggs in the kettle cause the kitchen wasn’t open. I made a whole meal actually. Only disappointment was there was no trouser press to make a toasted sandwich

Allergic to eggs so safe to say I’ve not had one

I’ve not boiled an egg. I only like hard boiled egg, but not enough to go to the effort of boiling an egg. Soft boiled eggs, fried eggs, poached eggs, scrambled eggs all make me retch. Both the smell and texture of eggs that aren’t hard boiled I find repulsive.

If we’re away and getting breakfast at a café I tend to go for the vegan breakfast as it’s the only one without lashings of egg.

I don’t think I have. I had an allergy to eggs and avoided them most of my life. Got tested a few years back (getting flu vaccines was difficult due to it being cultivated on egg) and turns out it must have been a childhood allergy. I’m now slowing entering the world of eggs.

I haven’t boiled an egg but I have tried one. The white part was nice but the yolk made me gag. The texture didn’t agree with me.

I’m still allergic to eggs so have also never boiled one. Fortunately to me they look and smell rank so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on much.

No you’re not. I’ve only had two. Scrambled egg is ok but it’s not something I’d choose unless it was given to me.
