Hello, I write from Panama. Here in Latin America acids are used to cook. Ceviche is a special meal of seafood made with lemon, lime or bitter orange. Here, most of the people believe that spice makes the "magic" of cooking raw seameat, but the acid does it.

Also we "cook" quail eggs with lemon, they look like boiled eggs (I suppose because it is a not so strong acid and they are smaller than a chicken ones).

The main problem is that some bugs (bacteria) can live in this kind of environment.

I have a feeling I would have learned a lot more in chemistry if I had this fellow as a teacher. :D

In regards to using HCl, you can use white vinegar instead to remove the shell really nicely. Its quite remarkable really that even with the hard shell dissolved, you can pick up the egg and it will still keep it's form. It's quite squishy and feels like it's about to burst in your hand, but the membrane is stronger than it looks. The egg also expands due to osmosis! Give it a try (but give it several hours, perhaps leave it overnight). Easy to do at home.

The very fact that he stuck a pen in the egg proves he is the best professor!!!!

Not to contradict the Professor, but, Being a Professor of Art History, I must point out, that it is the Yolk that was used in Egg Tempera paint, such as Bottecelli used. The Albumen (whites) was used extensively in early Photography, which along with Silver Nitrate was used in one process (too long to fit here) for print paper, and one for glass negatives, which involves the Albumen and silver nitrate salts. The mixture is a colloidal mix to coat the glass negatives. I can explain paper later.
