1. A shelled egg staging device comprising: a plurality of spaced apart, single, shelled whole raw egg receiving receptacles in a fixed generally linear array;a separate pour spout for each of said receptacles, each separate pour spout associated with a different one of said plurality of receptacles
1. A shelled egg staging device comprising: a plurality of spaced apart, single, shelled whole raw egg receiving receptacles in a fixed generally linear array;a separate pour spout for each of said receptacles, each separate pour spout associated with a different one of said plurality of receptacles, each pour spout having an outlet end, said separate pour spouts being in fixed relation to the receptacles, the outlet ends of the pour spouts being in a fixed generally linear array, and each of said separate pour spouts facing the same direction, to facilitate simultaneous, directed pouring of shelled whole egg from each of the receptacles through the pour spouts into a respective stationary target cooking container, each of said receiving receptacles comprising a fill portion, each said fill portion sized for receiving a shelled whole raw egg, each of said fill portions defining a fill volume with a closed side periphery and closed bottom, the closed side periphery being in fixed relation to the closed bottom, said fill volume disposed below the highest part of the respective pour spout; anda handle extending from an end of the generally linear array of receptacles. 2. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1 wherein said receiving receptacles are in a linear array. 3. The shelled egg staging device of claim 2 wherein said linear array of receiving receptacles comprises four receiving receptacles. 4. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1 further comprising one shelled egg within each of said receiving receptacles. 5. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1 wherein said pour spout further comprises an upstanding protrusion, extending upwardly from the bottom of a pour channel defined by said pour spout, for breaking an egg yolk as the egg yolk passes through said channel. 6. The shelled egg staging device of claim 2 wherein said receiving receptacles are generally square in shape, arranged corner-to-corner in a linear array. 7. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1 wherein said receiving receptacles are generally circular and are sufficiently large to contain one shelled whole egg each. 8. The shelled egg staging device of claim 2 wherein said linear array of receptacles is approximately symmetrical about a vertical plane containing an axis of the linear array of receptacles. 9. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1 further comprising two separate pour spouts on opposite sides of said generally linear array of receptacles for each receptacle, each of said two separate pour spouts being associated only with a respective one of said plurality of receptacles. 10. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1, wherein the outlet ends of said separate pour spouts are in a generally horizontal generally linear array when the device is in a horizontal orientation, each of said separate pour spouts defining a channel, a center of the channel of each spout spaced from a center of the channel of each neighboring spout by at least the approximate width of one receptacle. 11. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1, each of said separate pour spouts defining a channel extending away from its respective receptacle, wherein the channel of each of said separate pour spouts tapers to a smaller cross section in a direction extending away from its respective receptacle. 12. The shelled egg staging device of claim 1, each of said separate pour spouts defining a channel, wherein the channel of each of said pour spouts has a width sized to permit passage of a whole egg yolk.
