Lady Gaga's got nothing on this outrageous egg ($14). In comparison, it makes American deviled eggs seem angelic. First the ovum gets boiled, then the thing gets dunked in hot oil.

When you eat it, you initially taste that candy sweetness followed by the rich and creamy yolk, but soon enough a searing tingle erupts at the back of your throat.
