Right. It's a Sunday morning. You drank way too much beer last night. And what you need is a breakfast butty, ideally dripping in runny egg yolk.
So you'd think that we'd be quite on board with the prospect of being able to skip all the frying and get straight to the yolk, wouldn't you?
But now we've seen what runny egg yolk in a squeezy bottle looks like, we've decided we're absolutely not on board.
This is 'eggchup', an insane ketchup/egg hybrid, and it's been created by everyone's favourite sausage experts Heck.
The condiment, which is a two-ingredient blend of egg yolk and salt, has been dreamt up to 'revolutionise the traditional English breakfast'.

Even Heck admit that the concept is 'a bit marmite'.
And it's not just the eggs on your Full English that have been given the sauce treatment by Heck - they've also gone and made squeezy bean juice.
Beanchup is the world's first baked bean-flavoured ketchup, using haricot beans, tomato and spices. Okay fine this one actually sounds pretty good.
Announcing the news on Facebook, Heck said: "We’ve just made sausage sarnies even better! Introducing Eggchup and Beanchup! If you love beans with your bangers or enjoy egg and sausage you’ll LOVE our newest creations."
The comment section erupted, with one person saying: "Egg-chup. Oh no that's a hard pass from me lol. I'd have loved to have been present in the meeting that idea came up lol."
Another wrote: "The eggchup is intriguing....might be wonderful. Might be rank."
Someone else asked: "Is it April already?"
Calum Smith, the creator of the sauce, and Heck’s new product development manager, said: "The Secret Sausage Society are tough critics, but many have been telling us it feels like they are eating a full English breakfast, but all they’ve had to do is add the sauce, rather than rustle up more pots and pans."

Leeds pizza shop hailed ‘exceptional’ and ‘best in the UK’ by major reviewer
A Leeds pizza takeaway has received a glowing review from popular review duo.
Edges Pizza opened up their first permanent spot in Leeds back in June this year, after making a name for themselves slinging out pizzas at multiple pop-ups across the city.
Owners Grace and Edge from Harrogate opened Edges Pizza two years ago, taking inspiration from trips to New York over the years.

Their pizzas are a love letter to the class New York slice, think thin and crispy rather than chewy and floppy. But above all else, think absolutely delicious.
And now, they've caught the attention of a major review page, with Bite Twice Food Reviews (a page with almost 300k followers) paying Edges a visit.
The food review duo of Gerry del Guercio and Paul Delany popped up in Holbeck beneath the arches to get their hands on a pizza, and the outcome is brilliant.
In the video, Bite Twice said that the pizza is 'f**cking exceptional' and up there with 'one of the best pizzas in the UK'.
Before even taking a bite, they said: "On aesthetic, I don't think anywhere in the UK is doing pizza like this".

Then after the first bite, they go on to say: "There are very few pizzas in the UK that create this, I’m a little bit blown away".
As Londoners themselves, they go on to say that Edges is 'easily hitting with the best that we’ve got down south'.
And if that's not high praise enough, they sign off the video saying: "Leeds has got an absolute gem. I give this a stamp so hard my foot went through the pizza. Edges. Don Level."
The 42-year-old Kirkgate Market stall serving freshly shucked oysters for £1.90 a pop
Clementine Hall
Tucked away in Leeds Kirkgate Market you'll find a wonderful seafood stall selling freshly shucked oysters for £1.90 each.
It's places like these that remind us why we love Leeds so much.
Established in 1880, Hayes Seafood is widely regarded as the oldest trader within the historic Kirkgate Market.
For the past 42 years, it has been run by Cliff and Michelle, the loveliest couple who welcome every customer with open arms.

The menu here is small but perfectly formed, focusing on fresh, ready-to-eat seafood that you can enjoy with a squeeze of lemon and a dollop of mayonnaise at most.
Delivered fresh every morning, there's pre-cracked crab shells, brown and white crab meat, cockles, crawfish tails - all perfectly prepared for you to eat at their bar or high tables opposite.
But, it's the oysters that you'll see people queueing for. And rightly so.

Everything here is prepared to order right in front of you, and for no extra fee. You can choose from two types of oysters: super salty Lindisfarne oysters or the slightly sweeter English Loch Fyne.
We recommend having a couple of each, pulling up a stool right by the counter and getting stuck in. If you ask Cliff nicely, he might tell you a bit about the history of the place - but you may have to order a couple more oysters for that.

You're left to dress them yourself, whether you prefer dash of fiery tabasco or a few pickled shallots. But to be honest, they're delicious just as they come.
This spot is a real piece of Leeds history, and the queues at lunchtime as well as the repeat regular customers proves just how special it is.
All it's missing is a champagne stall next to it...now wouldn't that be perfect?
