Has anybody ever bought a Chipshop pickled Egg?

[ChipshopPickledEgg]

Has anybody ever brought one of the pickled eggs from the big jar in the Chipshop? I honestly have never known anybody to.

Oh now pizza crunch is a must-try. Loads of salt and vinegar and a can of Irn Bru..

Pickled eggs... I just can't bring myself to. I like the big pickled onions, but no. Have never seen anyone order one either

Yes, I love pickled eggs, I ask for them to be wrapped up in the chip paper, so delicious! If I fancy a snack in a pub I get one and a bag of salt and vinegar crisps and shake them together- yum! I did actually ask our chippy out of curiosity whether many people bought them and she said they tend to get through a jar or two a week which surprised me a bit as most people say ew when I have one.

A week after I got engaged to DH, we went to a party at a working men's club. His mates clubbed together and spent £12 buying the entire jar to give to me as a belated engagement gift 😂

How much is a pickled egg in a chip shop or pub?

Yes, i love them!

If I go to the chippy then it's compulsory!!!!

About 80p here which is quite wild really, but the jars are pricey to buy yourself and haven't been able to perfect making my own that taste as good yet (although that would certainly be cheaper)

I have, once, I'm sure you can extrapolate from that.

They make me feel nauseous.

It's bush tucker trial territory 🤢

I am picturing them firing neatly back out, like he's a pickled egg dispenser

Yep. Texture + smell= vile. Not for me, ta.

Exactly this! So tasty!

I love pickled eggs ! We used to eat them in the pub in a little paper cake casing with pepper and salt and vinegar crisps ! We were probably quite drunk and trying to sober up.

I have just made my own for lunches so I'm definitely going to try making soy ones

I threw one at someone once.

I do love a good picked egg. The ones in the chip shop are too strongly vinegary for me really, but I do still have them sometimes.

Home bargains or food warehouse ones are in a sort of watered down vinegar and I can eat a whole (small) jar in a day if I get carried away.

The best ones are home made ones from a farmers market though, with sugar and spices in the vinegar!

DH has his own jar of pickled eggs in our kitchen cupboard.

I think he actually got it from home bargains @ThereIbledit

I wondered this too. Plus shouldn't they be kept in the fridge with them being cooked eggs.

@shadowchancesassy it's a wally not a gherkin! Heathen

The chip shop I worked in in mg early 20s (so a few years ago now) used to get through two jars a week minimum.

on pay weekend usually another jar with all the extra orders.

I still hate the smell of them from that job!

DS works in a chip shop, a lady came and bought 6, she was drunk

Husband loves them. I make him one jar a year and make myself a jar of pickled onions.

I had a craving for them when I was pregnant with my second son. DH would go to the chippy on the way home from work and buy two or three most days. I haven't had one since though, and that was 21 years ago!

Yes, I love them!
