huevo
Gallina's breakfast product
Huevo is Spanish for egg, borrowed into English in regions with Mexican influence.
It appears in food contexts like huevos rancheros and huevos revueltos.
In Spanish slang, huevos means testicles, so expressions like tiene huevos (he has guts) or the dismissive me vale huevos carry vulgar overtones that Spanish speakers recognize even in English-dominant settings.
