    Are they vegan?

      Yes.
      If you break it open and its all floppy and runny, then its not boiled.
      If its a big white lump - then it is boiled.

          Lay it on its side on the desk/table. Spin it. Hard-boiled egg spins like crazy, raw egg spin is rapidly damped to a stop.

            Is it the spin it around check?

            Lay the egg on it's side, spin it around and then stop it spinning by placing your finger on top of it, take your finger off the top and if it carries on spinning it's not hard boiled,

                Does anyone else bring boiled eggs into the office ?



                Too many eggs can be bad for your cholesterol. I think 2 a day is okay but I wouldn't have any more per day.

                    Pah, you'd never measure upto Paul Newman with that attitude.
