But Doug, you say, that's impossible. Are you stupid? How can you possibly cook eggs without, you know-- just calm down. Just relax. You're not in high school anymore. You're in college now. Try not to pull a hamstring about it. It's gonna be okay. We're gonna be using an as seen on TV product called the Rollie Egg Master, typical as seen on TV product, eggs are hard to cook in a conventional pan. The yoke's break. You have to-- look at how dirty that stove. You have to do a bunch of clean up afterwards. It's just not worthy. There's got to be better way. Based on my experience in my own kitchen, I think Rollie left out random stove explosions and on seen snipers. For me, honestly it makes making eggs a challenge, not that enjoyable dodging explosions and main shot. Trust me. So when you use the Rollie Egg Master, it's about 40 bucks after shipping and handling. You will need two eggs, some non- stick cooking spray and then roll it. It will take the Rollie about 2 minutes to warm up after you plug it in and while you're waiting you can spray in some non- stick cooking spray. Once this warmed up the screen like-- will go on. You're gonna drop in 2 eggs. Alternatively, you can drop in one egg and then some fillings like some bacon bits or ham or diced onions, whatever you wanna put on your tubular omelet and that's pretty much it after about 8 minutes, your egg will be done. How will you know it's done? Because this why I've been-- it's actually a little mesmerizing. Dump it out onto a plate and you've got egg tube. Rollie includes 5 wooden skewers you can use to make some sort of egg on a stick concoction but you can just dump it out on to a plate. As far as taste goes, we've got eggs in the microwave, Rollie, little rubbery and then conventionally cook eggs. Rollie is far easier to clean up than any method. I've tried simply rinse it out. I may not be a college student anymore or maybe a 34- year- old technology blogger but that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy a high- protein snack ones. So I'll also, I'll just eat these egg tubes straight or sometimes I'll put them on the salad. Yes. The great Doug [ unk ] eat salads. It's hard to keep this physique. So that's the Rollie Egg Master, 40 bucks with shipping. Honestly, not the best tasting eggs in the history of eggs but far easier than make them in the microwave if you don't have a stove and easy clean up. Perfect for a dorm room or a room in a house you share with 17 other college students and you don't wanna interact with any of them because you just had enough. If you wanna go home to Minneapolis, where your family is and you have a car and your girlfriend is still in high school and you just wanna get away from it all. Basically, that's what it's good for among other things. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"How to Cook Eggs Without a Stove","description":"The Rollie EggMaster is worth a look for back-to-school shoppers or anyone who's tight on space.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/wtm86UOv/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2013-08-07T17:19:05.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/wtm86UOv.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/wtm86UOv/","duration":"PT2M43S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/wtm86UOv/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
