Several years ago, a humble kitchen gadget called the Egg Master (a cooking device that heats food in a tube) was released into the world. Guardian's Rhik Samadder called it "a horrifying, unholy affair." HuffPost's Nitya Rajan called it "the gadget that ruined eggs for everyone."

Years later, having clawed its way back out of the fiery chasm from whence it came, the Egg Master is getting another moment in the limelight, as YouTuber, cook, and Death to Jar Sauce author Nat's What I Reckon takes this questionable cooking device for a spin.

Specialising in empowering people to cook their own homemade meals with actual ingredients instead of instant packet stuff, Nat has long been making videos that especially do not encourage using '80s style methods relying on the "electrical sin bin" that is the microwave — his is lovingly named the "tucka fucka."

This time, Nat is using both the microwave and the Egg Master, to create some truly...uh, wet and tube-like creations using the recipe book that comes with the device — he's done this type of cookbook test before and it was also gross.

"The joy of cooking, everyone!" he says, attempting to thwart the prematurely rising creation emerging from the Egg Master. "What am I supposed to do? It doesn't say 'keep shoving it back down into the Eggmaster.'"
