If I had an egg cup I would use it as a toothpick holder

...you got any toothpick holders?

Ain't nobody got time for that! I eat things that I can walk around with, and if I'm going to cook eggs I'm going to fry them four at a time and then still walk around with the plate in my hands. Or I'll stack the fried eggs in a bowl if I'm super busy and I'm moving back and forth too much for a plate.
No, that's not how you do it. I will make a video tutorial. Your hanging on to the notion of peeling like a terrier with a rat. There's no peeling.

Indeed, I have one in the pipeline, looks something like this, but nicer. I don't like the top-heaviness of this design. It looks like it is just begging to be toppled like clodfobble.
