An Egg is a raw chicken egg, one of the most useful basic ingredients in the kitchen. Eaten raw, it can cause food sickness. Cooked, it is a small meal, and it goes into a long list of dishes and baking recipes.
Eggs keep for about two weeks before they start to turn. They usually come twelve to a carton, and an Egg Carton opens into twelve loose eggs. Loose eggs also turn up in restaurant, cafeteria and diner kitchens. The Chef is the best occupation for cooked and prepared. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.
Eating
An Egg lowers hunger by 7. It holds 63 calories, with about 5.5 grams of protein, 4 grams of fat and almost no carbohydrates. On its own, it is a light meal.
Raw eggs carry the risk of food sickness, so they should be cooked first. Prepared eggs fill more. Egg (Boiled) and Egg (Poached) lower hunger by 10 each. Egg (Scrambled) lowers hunger by 20 and carries more calories, at 120.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.
| Item | Hunger | Calories | Carbs | Protein | Fat |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Egg | -7 | 63 | 0.32 | 5.55 | 4.18 |
Cooking
An Egg cooks in only 4 minutes and burns after 20. That short window means it needs watching on the stove or fire.
Eggs go into Stir Fry, Rice, Pasta, Soup and Stew raw, adding 7 hunger to each. Once cooked, an egg adds 7 to a Sandwich, Burger, Salad or Burrito and 3 to a Taco.
Eggs are also a key baking ingredient. The Make Cake Batter recipe needs them, and so do the Prepare Muffins and Prepare Omelette recipes. They go into Chocolate, Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal and Sugar Cookies as well.
These dishes take the Egg as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.
