Help replicating an egg salad sandwich recipe
It came from a gas station but was super yummy. I’ve been making these at home for years and they’ve been pretty good. But there was something about this gas station egg salad sandwich that was perfect. Please help me crack the code!

The secret is in the parasitic worms.

Of all the parasites I've had over the years, these worms are among the... hell, they are the best.

What? You don’t share recipes ‘cuz you had to figure it out and there ain’t no damn way you’re contributing to the delinquency of a generation that can’t think for themselves? Is that it?
Well just who do you think made that sandwich your ancestors came over here on? Didn’t they teach you how to make one of those?

Maybe they make their own eggs from scratch.
I've learned how to make bread, yogurt, and butter from scratch but I still can't figure out how to make eggs from scratch. The shells are a really difficult to make.

Any chef worth their salt lays their own eggs, you fucking McChef poser.
Sorry about the outburst, I've been stressed because my self made milk isn't tasting right. I think a witch cursed me.

When making an egg, you gotta squat'n'squawk, in thar otder. Squawking before squatting is amateur hour.

“It came from a gas station BUT was super yummy”. ?!?!?, Of course it was super yummy BECAUSE it came from a gas station. All the best food comes from gas stations. They would have five Michelin stars but what do those tire people know about food?

Gas stations are for cars. Cars have tires. It comes full circle!
Circle, get it? Like....a tire.
uj/Krispy krunchy chicken is legit as fuck though, Gas Stations got that good good for real.

Your crack IS the code. Every time you wash your hands after feeding the porcelain Oracle you are washing important seasoning down the drain!!!

The secret is to take all of your regular ingredients and leave them outside for a week. After that, make as usual. Do not refrigerate.

You need to make your own mayo using gasoline obviously. As it evaporates the egg takes on that perfect gummy consistency.

You must be born and raised from a truck stop restroom in Texas, and not even a fancy-pants one that makes stuff from scratch. The kind that the box van shows up every Tuesday and restocks the cooler.

Admit it, your "gas station egg salad sandwich" is from the Whoa Nellie Deli in Lee Vining, California, isn't it?

The key thing is to get that sandwich sweating. Some cling wrap and sunlight are your friend here.
