A deviled egg is a dish created by cutting a hard-boiled egg into halves and replacing the yolk with a paste frequently made from the yolk itself. Randall Monroe parodies the dish by creating several alternative versions of the dish for other professions using word plays on the name of the dish.
Name | Description |

Deviled egg | The original dish. |
Leveled egg | Many landscaping projects require a leveled ground to work on[citation needed]. As such, a landscaper may prefer serve their deviled egg with a perfectly flat surface. |
Beveled egg | Bevel is a design pattern of creating non-perpendicular surfaces between adjacent edges. A designer may prefer to serve their eggs with beveled edges to give their eggs a more modern, aesthetically pleasing look. |
Demon egg | The Demon core is a piece of sub-critical plutonium created during the Manhattan Project to investigate the properties of criticality. The piece of plutonium got its name from the 2 criticality incidents that occurred when scientists were investigating this property. The first accident resulted in the death of Harry Daghlian. In the second experiment, the core was covered between two neutron reflecting shells separated by a screwdriver. The screwdriver became dislodged, causing the core to become completely covered by the neutron reflecting shell, bringing the core past its criticality limit. A large amount of radiation caused the subsequent death of physicist Louis Slotin. The dome of the boiled egg and the toothpick resemble the configuration of the experiment. |
The Demon Core was also referred to in 1242: Scary Names.
The title texts refers to Cherenkov Radiation, a "sonic boom" of blue light created by particles travelling faster than the speed of light in a medium.
