5 Reasons Why the Egg Came Before the Chicken

October 15, 2026 · by the founder

1. Eggs are served at breakfast, Chicken is generally served at lunch or dinner.

Although I guess chicken and waffles can also be a breakfast meal. So the debate isn't fully decided yet.

2. Modern Domestic Chickens were only domesticated between 3500 to 8000 years ago

Dinosaurs were around long before them and they are born out of eggs.

3. Eggs did not have to learn to cross the road

Chickens apparently always need a reason to cross the road. I guess that's why we ask "why" they did. It probably took a long time of evolving before chickens could cross a road. Heck, the first road ever built was estimated around 4000 BCE.

4. Chickens don't even come from eggs

They are grown on eggplants

5. This debate doesn't matter anyway

Someday, Neuralink chips will be planted in chickens and they will rise up and start cooking humans as payback. The chickens will open a "Human-fil-A" fast food chain, and have "Human Sandwiches" or even "Spicy Human sandwiches". Even worse, since we like to eat their eggs, they will decide to eat our fetuses.
