Squiggles Egg Separator specifically focuses on the removal of the Chalaza. It also features the option for the Chalaza Tip to be removed for a fully functional egg yolk separator as a dual product. For beginners, you might be asking yourself, " What is a Chalaza?". This is where we need to spend a moment on some "EGGucation". The basic simple anatomy of the chicken egg consists of 3 major inner components and a shell. Squiggles was designed to remove what we have called "Squiggles" which defined as "each of two twisted membranous strips joining the yolk to the ends of the shell, when the egg is cracked they bundle up together and create the 3rd part of the egg, the Squiggles or Chalaza. Why would I WANT to remove a Chalaza. Well the product was originally created to remove and discard the Chalaza because it makes the aesthetic appearance of a perfect egg, with an imperfection.. the squiggles. Once it is removed then the egg would be used in typical cooking. As the product was developed, we found out that commercially, most eggs are separated into 3 parts for purity; the yolk, the white and the chalaza. This has been implemented for the past 100 years in mass egg food production facilities.They package the chalaza parts in bulk and distribute in grocery store, often found in the ethnic food section or you can commonly find them in the world food centers sold for cooking use. So we will not judge you from removing it to discard, nor will we judge you if your removing it to make a more pure recipe, or you have possibly discovered the next super food product that uses the Squiggles and is going to take over the world. For easy yolk removal, simply detach the bulb and separate the yolk from the egg white. ** We recommend using medium sized eggs for best results.

Not Even Close!
I ordered this to replace my Tidee Egg that isn't sold anymore. This is described as being able to remove the chalaze from the egg (the stringy white thing). It takes time and more patience than I am willing to give to be able to angle this just right and use the squeeze ball to pull it up. I miss the Tidee Egg and wish it would come back in stock!

Time Saver!
Time saver! This product is designed to take out the chalazae and it does just that quick and efficiently. It also helps with any little egg shell that you might get into your pan/bowl! I'm usually in a hurry in the morning when making my eggs, and fishing for shells and taking out the chalzae can be time consuming a tedious. This makes it so quick and easy. Love how easy and mess free it is to remove the yolk too! Great addition to my daily breakfast routine!!

For Chalaza, So-So
I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong... seems pretty self explanatory... I cannot get it to fully take out the chalaza. Remove yokes is perfect. Maybe I just need to keep trying...
