Is a kit truly necessary?
But for many people, this is just the time-saving choice they need.
We of course tried these here in theSouthern Livingoffices.
We are nothing if not curious about how badly some folks can mess up the classics.
And reader, let me tell you, we were genuinely surprised.
Unfortunately, that’s what happens with these packaged egg products.

Call us particular, but we tend to like a bit more mayonnaise in our deviled egg filling.
We’d even delight in a little smoky flaked salt.
It’s unclear if this is a permanent addition to the offerings.
Odds are, it’ll be around for the holidays and then gone.
Maybe for Easter you should have a go at DIY the appetizers.
