Why can't we buy hard-boiled eggs at the store?!

lol - that's a good but random question.. i'm not quite sure really.

WHY would you want to? We already buy far to much "convenience food" boiling eggs so so simple and easy. Why would you pay a huge mark up to have soemone else do that.

****If you do buy them from the deli section ofyour grocery store the deli emplyees are not boiling them. You can buy them from plaes such as Sysco in 3-5 gallon bucket.

And HB eggs do NOT turn black if you don't use them right away. They can be kept for a couple of weeks.

I do not know where you live in the U.S. but it is possible in a delicatessen - that makes sandwiches, etc - to buy hard boiled eggs.....just individually, not a whole carton of them...but they would sell you a dozen of them..they are just more expensive because the store staff had to boil them for you.

all the best

you have money. eggs are expensive as is without being boiled but recently in the deli section there was a frig for such things deviled eggs and boiled eggs I will stay with just a few extra minutes and boil them myself. try Ingles or you local deli.

You can find them in the refrigerated section,also have seen them in jars, around the pickles,olives,etc

You can, I have bought them for camping, they are expensive, rubbery and tasteless. Make your own, they will be MUCH better.

actually You can in some stores. At our local store i saw a small cartoon (about 4) of hard boiled eggs.

You can usually pick them up in the deli/salad bar section. Ain't progress wunnerful?

The reason they can't sell hard boiled eggs is because they turn black inside if they are not used right away. Have you ever tried pickled eggs. They are hard boiled then put in a pickling vinegar....yummo!!

Some grocery stores sell them in the deli section.

Probably cause they smell like doo doo. :D But i have seen them before, just not in a full carton.

They're in the deli. You're just looking in the wrong section.

because its sheer and utter laziness!!!
