I'm not kidding. The ads also said you can use it to make a "hard
boiled egg with no yolk!"

I recall seeing ads for it back in the 1970s or 1980s I think.
And it's still being sold, on amazon.com and elsewhere. See for
example: http://www.asseenontv.com/prod-pages/eggscrambler.htm

Just search for Ronco egg scrambler on Google and you'll find a whole
bunch of links.

Hee hee... except the egg in the microwave will probably still
explode, whether you scrambled it inside or not.
