It’s That Time Again…

…that time to find the nation’s worst cook. The American Egg Board is launching its second annual ‘Search for America’s Worst Cook.‘ Can you think of anyone that might qualify?

Does your recipe repertoire consist of microwaveable meals and the phone number for Chinese take-out? Are you prone to flare-ups in the kitchen? Then you might just be America’s Worst Cook. According to the second annual cooking survey from the American Egg Board, 50 percent of Americans reported having a disaster in the kitchen at least several times a year, and 42 percent said they know someone in desperate need of basic cooking skills.

To prove that even the most disastrous cooks can master the art of cooking with eggs, the American Egg Board is launching the second annual “Search for America’s Worst Cook” contest. Entering is easy. Simply visit the website, and in 200 words or less along with a video or photograph(s), tell the American Egg Board why you — or someone you know — are in desperate need of cooking help.

The winner will be featured in an advertisement for the American Egg Board and will win a trip for two to New York City to take cooking classes and enjoy the sights, sounds and tastes of one of the greatest culinary cities in the world. The contest runs from April 29, 2008 through June 30, 2008.
