The more you take me, the more you leave me behind.
Who Am I?

I get hot but I never sweat,
I cook food but I am not a chef,
I have a door but you can't enter me,
I have a light but I am not a lamp.
Who am I?

I am white when I am dirty, and black when I am clean. What am I?

I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,

I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole.

If I remove one from eleven it becomes Ten and if I remove one from nine also becomes Ten. How?

Begin with a word, five letters to my name,
Remove the first and last but I am the same
Take out my middle and still, I remain.
What word am I?
