My sister got me one of these for a birthday present. You missed posting the greatest part of this product: Imgur

[–]barely_regal 10 points11 points ago

I wonder if wombats think the same thing when they poop.

(Article on wombat poop)

[–]friday6700 19 points20 points ago

I'm not upset or disturbed that I read the entire article, or that I watched the entire video. I am however, slightly upset about the fact that I was disappointed that there weren't more pictures.

[–]asoftoday123 5 points6 points ago

What makes it "certified"? Did it have to take an exam?

[–]elastic-craptastic 1 point2 points ago

It's like a chocolate marshmallow!

[–]Derpettia 0 points1 point ago

That's more just flattened feces than square like they describe it. This is rather disappointing.

[–]thepinktulip1 4 points5 points ago

does it work?

[–]candace5280 11 points12 points ago

Yes! Time wasted on cubing it when you could be eating it, but it's all fun.

[–]ArbitraryIndigo 0 points1 point ago

Well, you still have to soak it in beet juice before you can eat it anyway.

[–]Vagnarok 2 points3 points ago

Yes it does! I had one of these growing up as a kid. I can't believe that other people have heard of this!

[–]meangrampa 1 point2 points ago

My wife still has one of these from the 70s. She'll make devilled eggs with it occasionally. But it's kind of a pain in the ass because you've got to do it one at a time and it takes forever..

[–]thepinktulip1 1 point2 points ago

weird. I would've guessed that it was like those shitty "as-seen-on-tv" products that never worked. I guess it makes it easier to cut the egg?

[–]Vagnarok 1 point2 points ago

Nah, I'm pretty sure it's purely novelty. :)

[–]wetwater 1 point2 points ago

My grandmother has one in her cupboard, and if it's like most of her cake mixes, it probably is of late 60's to mid 70's vintage. She used it once in a while to surprise us grandkids at breakfast when we slept over.

[–]hozomeen 1 point2 points ago

Indeed it does

[–]HaterSandwich -4 points-3 points ago

The real question is "does it work on raw eggs?"

[–]bogdanpol 0 points1 point ago

actually the more important matter here is what came first : the eggcuber or the square egg ?

[–]raporteur 0 points1 point ago

The eggcuber, as it didn't come from a square egg.

[–]bogdanpol 0 points1 point ago

you cannot be sure of that.

[–]RykezOne 0 points1 point ago

i can remember getting one of these in a mickey mouse, probably 9 years ago or so, as an extra! it was all about those square eggs and that there was something wrong with the chickens or so.. good times

[–]A3gis 135 points136 points ago

When I buy this, all of my problems will go away.

[–]Run4itMarty 97 points98 points ago

I know right? Finally, a square meal!

[–]online222222 36 points37 points ago

It's like minecraft

Oh lord, the internet is actually leaking.

Oh christ, I just laughed my ass off.

[–]eVaan13 1 point2 points ago

Oh god, can we now stop mentioning holy people?

[–]adaminc 9 points10 points ago

They grow watermelons to a specific size, and then place them in a square container, and grow them the rest of the way.

[–]Hex-Kitty 8 points9 points ago

I personally prefer Mickey Mouse watermelons. http://media.trb.com/media/photo/2005-11/20426146.jpg

Easier stacking?

[–]ilikedroids 40 points41 points ago

Well yeah. Haven't you wanted to build a mini fort out of eggs?

[–]frenchfry9000 39 points40 points ago

Well damn, now I do.

[–]ilikedroids 13 points14 points ago

If you play tabletop wargames, it'd be funny to make an entire city out of the eggs.

But when a building is destroyed, you'd eat the building.

[–]Ragesim 11 points12 points ago

It's like beer pong except not at all.

[–]Linkmaster2010 5 points6 points ago

Maybe it's the stale fruit loops or the sleep deprivation, but I found this hilarious.

[–]NotSoGoodAtPhotoshop 1 point2 points ago

So did I.

[–]Lycist 1 point2 points ago

a table top tower defense.. with square eggs

[–]Forever_Stoopit 10 points11 points ago

The hell with snow forts. I wanna make an eggloo this winter.

[–]fiddlercrabs 1 point2 points ago

I want to build an igloo! No - an eggloo.

Giant potato salad.

[–]mogto 21 points22 points ago

I didn't even think of that!

Fuck put them in a glass of milk, sounds good.

[–]CtrlC_plus_CtrlV 88 points89 points ago

Genius tagline. Whoever came up with "makes a square egg" must be a marketing wizard of no equal.

[–]LaTeX_fetish 28 points29 points ago

The matter-of-factness of it is hilarious

[–]aryst0krat 5 points6 points ago

I feel like I need to follow this thing around explaining how it works to people so they'll stop upvoting it. Look what you did, Trapped_In_Reddit.

[–]Mcflexington 3 points4 points ago

Aww yeah, those two dimensional eggs. The best kind.

[–]EstellaHavisham3 0 points1 point ago

Cuber "makes a square egg." Yes, genius indeed.

[–]ILovecrystalmeth 9 points10 points ago

I'm sorry

[–]bacon_butter 4 points5 points ago

Lots of japanese dollar stores (if you can find one) carry egg shapers so you can make cars, stars, cute animals etc.

[–]Brym 5 points6 points ago

The thing I like best about the ad is that it never addresses the obvious question of "why?????". It takes the tone of "obviously you may need square eggs, here is a way to fill that need."

[–]readingis_sexy 8 points9 points ago

Ah shit i have one of these! And i can confirm, it will make all your dreams come true

[–]Republiken 16 points17 points ago

Can you please take a picture of you cutting up one square egg?

[–]lightslash53 -1 points0 points ago

oh no sir, you misunderstand, it doesn't CUT eggs to make them square, Oh no, it uses sorcery, and the tears of unicorns to form the ENTIRE egg into a square!

[–]hazleapricot 6 points7 points ago

He wants you to cut the already square egg.

[–]insidiousthought 7 points8 points ago

I don't know what it costs but I don't care!

[–]hazleapricot 1 point2 points ago

Looks like about 10 bucks.

[–]Rainb0wcrash99 0 points1 point ago

I do :((((((((

[–]Adnachiel 1 point2 points ago

Ahh those wacky Dutch. They also put shaved chocolate on toast!

[–]frankzzz 4 points5 points ago

there are plastic egg molds, too, to make heart and star shapes and others.

[–]tehaleks 4 points5 points ago

I have a bunch of those. A car, an airplane, a bunny, a cow, a star, can't remember the rest... the most fun is people's reactions when they see it.

[–]clickwir 4 points5 points ago

I have 2. It works, mostly. Most eggs I tried it with took shape fairly well. Some just didn't like it and hardly took shape at all.

You also have to be quick about it. Once they start getting cool, they won't take the shape.

Doing a couple dozen 'deviled eggs' took a lot of work, I wouldn't say it was worth it. But the people at the party were quite amazed at what we brought to the cookout.

[–]Well_Torn 9 points10 points ago

I want other shapes as well! Rhombus, trapezoid, pentagon.

[–]zipzap21 5 points6 points ago

Why stop there? How about animal-cracker-shaped eggs?

[–]Ac3oSpades 2 points3 points ago

Animal shaped eggs?

[–]Malcar 2 points3 points ago

What about Car and Fish?

[–]Leglas 1 point2 points ago

Guys. I got it. The perfect shape.

Oval.

[–]Violoner 0 points1 point ago

[–]XCrunner321 2 points3 points ago

I have that exact same thing. My mom says it's really old.

[–]Pythosblaze 7 points8 points ago

"Makes a square egg".

Truth in marketing right there.

[–]Prime20 2 points3 points ago

Its the perfect gift for the mincraft fan who has everything!

[–]mollylolly88 2 points3 points ago

I have one of those. I use it every time I make deviled eggs.

[–]smokeydesperado 2 points3 points ago

Don't need it, still want it.

[–]Forgot_My__Username 2 points3 points ago

Got these egg shapers off of Amazon so I could pack preschool style lunches for my husband. Vroom vroom!

[–]scruntly 1 point2 points ago

FINALLY!!! I am sick of making square eggs by hand like a fucking asshole.

[–]MayorMajorMajorMajor 1 point2 points ago

Has anyone read Why We Broke Up by David Handler (a.k.a Lemony Snicket).

The characters have this thing for square eggs...

You don't take a round object and turn it square. Now the world is unbalanced.

It's just in case you feel like a square egg, in a round whole.

[–]scottsouth 0 points1 point ago

Who and why would someone create this product? Oh wait, the Chinese.

[–]N00t 0 points1 point ago

Sure, it SOUNDS amazing, but trust someone who owns one: getting an ellipsoid into the shape of a cube is a lot goddamn harder than it sounds. You'll work very hard to get the conditions just right, and when you're finished, you've wasted a half-hour on a cublipsoid abomination, and you smell like eggs.

[–]Redlar 0 points1 point ago

My Mom has one of those, although, she's never used it. It's still in it's original box too. It always cracked me up when I saw it in the kitchen cabinet.

[–]Arxl 0 points1 point ago

So, everything in Minecraft is a square!

[–]Maverick_Jr 0 points1 point ago

O my god i have one of these. so weird

[–]ThatMetalBrony666 0 points1 point ago

It makes Minecraft eggs!

(And I know the eggs in Mincraft are normal, it's just a joke, STFU)

[–]angstycoder 0 points1 point ago

Device makes egg into cube. Device tells you to remove square. Clearly, you want to buy it because it magically can remove a dimension.

[–]Onoxsys 0 points1 point ago

Minecraft egg.

[–]loganemar 0 points1 point ago

It's made in China so the eggs will probably look more like Rectangular Prisms.

I'm confused why is their slogan "makes a square egg" when it's called "the egg cuber" and it makes a cube. Who the hell puts an ice square in their drink?

Interesting... and I agree I kinda want one too... just for sh*ts and giggles... betcha it's a good conversation starter...

Guest: Those can't be eggs, they are square You: Check it out, just bite into it... Guest: Oh wow it is an egg, how is that possible You: I have a chicken that lays square eggs... I always though it was normal... what do you use eggs in other shapes?

[–]shinygreenbean -1 points0 points ago

I have one of these, they're really useful for stopping peeled cold hard boiled eggs from rolling round on a plate, or if you want to make a Squotch egg.

[–]Nerdy_kitten -1 points0 points ago

GENIUS!

[–]Metal-Phoenix -1 points0 points ago

Takes 15-20 minutes per egg. Unless you have a lot of time to kill for shits and giggles, hardly worth it.

[–]Musikater -1 points0 points ago

Yeah, cubic eggs are nice. I would additionaly like to have some of these. (happy food is good food)

If you really want to mind-fuck your guests, try one of these.

[–]Defendprivacy -1 points0 points ago

I actually had one of these. IT is absolute shit unless you really work at it. First of all, the egg has to be PERFECTLY hard boiled. If it is overcooked at all, it just splits as it is being pressed. Secondly, the egg should still be warm from the initial boiling. So you have to remove the shell with the egg still warm, which is difficult to keep the egg in good shape. Finally, if you are able to do the preceeding, the put the egg in the press and leave it until it cools enough to hold its shape. Of course, by the time that egg is ready, the others are too cool to mold, or they are overcooked if you tried to keep them warm.

Fun idea though.

[–]markshlaf -1 points0 points ago
