An egg with my tea?

Sure, why not? But an egg soaked in black tea, along with soy sauce and spices? Not so much.

It's a common snack here in Taiwan, commonly referred to as the Chinese tea egg. You will find it in every 7/11 you walk into over here. Honestly, the contents don't sound bad at all. I mean it's just tea and spices, with your egg (much easier to digest than some of other food we get around here). It's just the visual effect that puts me off - it almost looks rotten. So it's not for me - but if you are adventurous with food you should surely give it a try when you get the chance.
