Advantages and Disadvantages

There are many reasons why a player might consider using Poached Eggs as a primary food source:

• They do not require slaughter - and subsequent breeding - of livestock, unlike meat.
• They restore an adequate amount of hunger and saturation, unlike Donuts or Melon Slices.
• Production can be fully automated.

However, there are also certain drawbacks:

• You can only produce as many eggs as you have seeds.
• They require use of a Cauldron, making them unavailable in the early game.
• They do not restore as much hunger or saturation as meat.
