OK,SWickipedians-

Why are they called devilled eggs? Seems like a heavy duty name for such an unassuming dish.

Hard boiled egg yolks mixed with condiments and bacon then the whites "re" - "filled" with it.

Then the US inventor of the dish trying to be fancy and French Chef like, naming them De-Villed...

Followed by big city elitists and fake news asshats stealing the idea for fancy restaurants but altering the name just enough to claim it was their own idea.

Hey you asked. Don't complain to me because it's not a fuzzy warm satan story .
