The age old culinary problem of how long do you have to boil an egg has been solved by a crack team of breakfast boffins who have created the perfect package for eggs on the go. Similar to a hand grenade you simply pull the tab, stand back for two minutes as the revolutionary carton cooks the egg and then crack open the carton to reveal the perfect egg. The award winning Gogol Mogol package is a single cardboard egg box made with special layers of water and Calcium Oxide that produce heat when activated. After just two minutes the egg is cooked, although the user can open the container anytime up until three minutes, depending on how runny they like their yolk. The product was created by a team of inventors led by Russian Evgeny Morgalev at the Kian design studio.[Photo/CFP]
