Egg

An egg is a food object added in the 7th Seecret Friday Update. They are randomly laid by chickens. They currently have no use, and cannot be eaten.

It is theorized that eggs could be used in future updates for making food items such as omelets. (As discussed at the forums )

Note: Notch has announced that if Minecraft wins the Indie game developer contest he will add cake to Minecraft, egg will likely be a baking ingredient.
