There are just too few ways to eat an egg, am I right? You can crack it in a pan to fry it up and...that's pretty much it.

We suppose it's about that time to ask that one question we ask of every single new trend: Is this necessary?

While we don't really get this cloud egg business, we understand that there are people out there that get very excited by trends like this. To those people, we don't want a cloud to come and rain on your parade. Or wait, in this case I guess we do?

Whatever the case is we hope you enjoy your eggs, whether they are cloudy or just plain scrambled.
