The history of eggs is as old as life itself, spanning across planets, civilizations, and culinary traditions. As the Star Army explored new worlds, they discovered a variety of egg-laying creatures, each offering unique flavors and properties. The diversity of eggs and their ubiquitous role in cuisine quickly made them a staple item in the Star Army Commissary and led to their inclusion in various military rations.

In the Star Army universe, the term “egg” doesn't necessarily refer solely to a chicken egg. From the giant eggs to tiny, luminous orbs, eggs in this setting come in all shapes, sizes, and flavors. The commonality is their nutritional value, rich in proteins, fats, and essential nutrients.

These are some known sources of eggs in the Star Army setting:

• Nataria has large amounts of chickens that lay eggs
• Daikoku-Class Agricultural Ship can host chickens
• Kameyama District of the Tsu Agricultural Zone on Jiyuu III

Eggs are an incredibly versatile ingredient in the Star Army culinary world:

• Field Rations: Scrambled egg powder and other egg-based components are common in field rations for their protein content.
• Culinary Applications: From omelets and frittatas in the mess hall to exotic dishes the possibilities are endless.
• Nutritional Supplements: Due to their rich nutrient content, eggs are also utilized in various dietary supplements and even medical applications.
• Cultural and Ritual Uses: In some cultures, eggs hold symbolic significance and are used in various ceremonies and rituals.

The most basic way to eat eggs is to mix the contents and cook them to make scrambled eggs. This is a popular breakfast dish in the Yamatai Star Empire and Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia.
