Foolproof Egg Timer for dummies
One certainly can't be a cook if that person doesn't know how to boil an egg. The Foolproof Egg Timer saves you the indignity of such embarassment - unless you're colorblind of course. All you need to do is throw a number of eggs inside and keep an eye on the color. As the eggs get boiled, the timer will end up darker in the middle, expanding as it comes in contact with one of three lines (depicting hard, medium, and soft eggs) to suit your taste.

Sounds great for campers this summer.

I find it easier to set a timer on the stove. I guess it would be useful if you wanted some of the eggs in a single batch soft boiled and some hard...
