If you like to add protein to your breakfast, it is very likely that you had an egg this morning too. We all love eggs, their taste, their uniqueness and because they can be had even if you are following the Keto diet.

 

But have you ever stopped to think what a simple egg can do if it’s snapped perfectly? It can beat Kylie Jenner’s reign of having the most liked Instagram post. Yes, though Kylie Jenner achieved the feat of having 18 million likes for an Instagram post when she announced the name of her daughter, she has tasted defeat now.

 

 

A post of an egg has garnered over 30 million likes and has amassed millions more by the time this article is published. To put that in perspective, the number of people who have liked this post are about one-fourth of the people who opted to vote in the last presidential elections.

 

The account of the egg post that beat Kylie Jenner is held by a person who likes to be addressed as Henrietta or as a chicken. The egg is named as Eugene and came into existence when Henrietta decided to stop drinking for Dry January and read the fact that Kylie Jenner’s post was the most liked post on Instagram.

 

It’s about time the eggs got the recognition they deserve, and people move on from their habit of liking a post just because it is shared by a celebrity they love. Though Kylie Jenner would not be happy to know that an egg has beaten her record of most Instagram likes, she is playing it cool. Recently, she posted a meme on Instagram where you can see her cracking an egg on the hot pavement in California. She has succeeded in getting only 2 million likes for the post which is way too low as compared to the egg post that made her lose the Instagram likes battle.

 

The history of most liked posts on Instagram can be traced back to 2014 when Will Smith and Justin Bieber set the record with their post getting 1.5 million likes. Given how many likes the egg has got, 1.5 million likes seem like a joke, don’t you agree?
