Abstract: An apparatus for removing the shell of a hard boiled egg having a main body portion in the general configuration of an egg and having a thin wedge gently shaped leading edge for insertion between the cooked egg white and the surrounding membrane and shell. A number of fluid outlets are disposed in the leading edge and are adapted to communicate with a source of pressure fluid. And valve means are disposed between the outlets and the source of pressure fluid for admitting pressure fluid to the outlets for injecting the fluid between the cooked egg white and the adjacent membrane and shell to effectively separate the membrane and shell from the cooked egg white.
