There’s something pretty cracked about this unappetising deep-fried egg recipe
Over on TikTok, @superrecipess occasionally weaves some serious ragebait in amongst perfectly good – or super – recipes.
Here’s an example – of ragebait, that is.
Back in 2024, they went massively viral with more than 22 million views of this bizarre egg dish. Watch and wonder.
Here’s a taste of the thousands of comments.

As well as numerous stitches on TikTok, the video found its way onto Twitter, where it got a similar reception from @Bornakang.

The heart attack that would kill my mother would not be from the cooking oil, but from the shock she'd get from seeing me use all that oil to fry egg 😭😂 https://t.co/3rBGO3HoYj

Dan Rebellato summed up the situation.
These US cooking clips are jokes aren't they? They're just making these obviously disgusting things in an obviously disgusting way for the clicks right? https://t.co/lDsU7klKQq
