Hi all.. .

I'm new to the group but didn't know where else to post this. I'm
looking for this egg breaker/separator. It's a hand held, white
plastic device that you put the egg in.. and you squeeze the handle
and it cracks the egg and drops the contents into a separator on the
bottom of it.. i've tried attaching a video to this post but it
didn't work

Thank God for small favors! This is a text-only newsgroup --

so if you want the video email me and i can send it to you.

Is there a URL for it? I'd rather have that than a bigass attachment to
a message.

That looks like a handy gadget. I did a google search for "egg
separator" and I got lots of hits. You might try doing the same search
to see if the particular egg separator you want can be found.

I've searched every single website I've found on google and there is
nothing... I think it might be a european thing
but haven't heard from anyone on those ng's..

LOL! Europe has websites, too!

Though I ceretainly don't need one, this thing looks kinda neat. Must be
somewhat obscure, though. Happy hunting!

Yes, and if anyone finds them please post where. I'd love to have one
just because and they certainly would make great stocking stuffers for
next Christmas...yes, it's that time of year again. Time to start
Christmas shopping...

if anyone has seen it or knows where to get it please let me know..

Thanks!

Michelle - dear - you can't actually be serious - unless you plan to
make omlets for 500. No offense, I mean, everybody has a gadget they
like - but are you sure you want an Egg-breaker?

Thank you....

Sure.
I looked at the video. The gizmo looks like one more gadget I couldn't
live without, might try twice, and then would wonder where in hell I was
going to store it. And I see great potential for misplacing the
strainer part of it. And at the earliest opportunity, I'll sell it in
a garage sale for 50 cents. Me, I'll stick with a solid whack on the
counter and the use of the shell halves for separating the white from
the yolk. As ever, YMMV.

Well it's for my grandmother... she has very bad arthritis and can't break
eggs very well anymore without getting shell all over.. and then separating
it is another story... it's not for me!! 🙂

Ah, that makes sense. I thought it looked like an awful lot of
trouble to assemble (and clean) just to break and separate eggs :>

Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself!

I've decided the best way to separate yolks and whites is
to crack the egg into my fingers and let it drip through.

I mean, I'll never keep my fingers clean and out of the
egg the normal way anyway, so I might as well be efficient.

I hope you find it for her and I hope she'll be able to use it. Will
there be an issue with grip as she'll have to squeeze the handles of the
gizmo? Maybe won't know until you find it and try.

Sorry, Michelle. Sounds like a good idea after all.
