Has Anyone Here Ever Eaten A Pickled Egg?

What do they taste like? They look disgusting.

[mallyh]

[Redhelen72]

Oh god no!
I love eggs but the pure thought of this makes me want to gag.

[bednobs]

i always imagined they had the taste of the egg you get in pork pie - is that true?

[naomi24]

Are they really smelly, mally? Eggy smelly?

I love them. When working up North used to order one to eat while I waited for my fish to fry.

Many years ago one of my daughters came home from clubbing in the wee hours only to find there wasn't a huge amount of 'ready' food available. She scoffed a whole jar, bar the one I had eaten.

Jeez, the smell - so beware!

no worse than pickled onions etc .i haven't had one for a long time but now i fancy one lol x

They taste like a boiled egg which has been pickled, rather unsurprisingly.

See my post above. Not going in but very 'eggy' later on in the day.

They tend to taste predominately of vinegar with an underlying standard egg taste. Great with a bag of chips and also nice with a salad. As well as on their own.

My wife wont eat them though, wont even try them.

[youngmafbog]

Yes Mally, I got the taste too, so just gone and eaten one.

[pastafreak]

No...they just seem...wrong.

Just don't fancy them, or gherkins. I only like pickled onions.

What do they taste like? Strawberries of course.

[naomi24]

Would that be pickled strawberries?

I like most pickles but just can't bring myself to eating a pickled egg.

[choux]

Absolutely not. Same with big wallies, if you will pardon the expression.

[naomi24]

Haaaaaaaaa! I've met a few of those in my time, choux. :o)

Probably had one yonks ago to go with a beer. The ones at Moe's Tavern in the Simpsons are a running joke!

And what happened to the shellfish sellers that used to tour the pubs late at night?

[mallyh]
