Phrase to the world: now we’ve a sous vide egg bites disadvantage.
As soon as I first heard about these items months prior to now, I acquired myself to a Starbucks ASAP. Eggs are my favorite meals on the planet, and I was so pumped to get a protein-y egg chew with my morning latte. Until, I couldn’t uncover them in San Diego. Wherever. Usually, I’d merely ask for them after we’d go to completely completely different locations, and every single time I was turned down by the barista.
As quickly as I requested why they didn’t have them, and the girl instructed me that it was on account of they’ve been too well-liked they often couldn’t maintain with demand.

Wiping a silent tear off my cheek, I vowed to myself that I’d uncover them.

“Yeah, what style would you need?”

Okay, no I didn’t. I ordered roasted crimson pepper and went on my merry means, though I was smiling like a creeper as soon as I paid for my order.
They’ve been all of the items I dreamed of. And since that day… I’ve had them a lot. Like, an embarrassing amount.
