Is eating eggs with soldiers only for kids?

[OfDeath]

I had a woman over last night. I woke up before her and made my own breakfast first because I didn’t want to wake her. She could use the beauty sleep if you know what I mean. Women in their late 30s with careers can look rough.

Anyway, I cooked a couple of soft boiled eggs and ate them with buttered toast cut into strips. I had an egg cup which is the head of Homer Simpson. So she wakes up and sees me eating, laughed at how in her words spoken in a hoarse intonation “cute” it was and told me only kids eat eggs like that.

I have them that way, it is really common, if I stop at a friends they just do it naturally. How else do you get a square bit of bread into a much smaller hole… hmmm 🤔

Exactly

I dunno the term “soldiers” in that context.
But i dunked my toast into my sunny egg yolks for years. Now i just make a breakfast sammich, but it’s basically the same thing.

That was rude. If you like it don't let it sway your moment of happiness in the mornings.

True

They need to be that shape for dunking purposes. Nothing wrong with that.

Yes probably, but I'm sure she has a stuffed bear collection she hasn't grown out of at home too!

[OfDeath]

She just has one of those giant stuffed gorillas

[TommyMountainFigure]

Exactly.. So if you're a kid for having soldiers dipped in your egg, so is she for having a stuffed gorilla :D.

I'm just not a fan of dipping anything in eggs...

I need my eggs well cooked, and the less close possible to salmonella-ish

What do you mean, soldiers

[OfDeath]

It’s the term for toast cut into strips
