Chrissy Teigen is an expert in cravings, and never before did I realize the name of her food brand could be quite literal.

As it turns out, Chrissy gets cravings on a nightly basis, and she satisfies them with her ritual "night eggs."

At approximately 3:35 a.m. ET Sunday morning, Chrissy began spilling the tea about said eggs.

"Each night before bed, as I eat my night eggs, if I’m not not on the Twitter, I catch up on my favorite subreddits: choosingbeggars, amitheasshole (AITA) and thathappened," she wrote. "I enjoy these very much and learn a lot about...humans."

This prompted the curious Emma to ask, "Do the 'night eggs' actually work as a sleep aid? How many night eggs? Inquiring minds need to know."

"I can’t sleep without being overly full. I take two hard boiled eggs to bed every night and eat them when I randomly wake up," Chrissy revealed. "It used to be beef jerky but I’d wake up too puffy."

But surely Chrissy doesn't wake up in the middle of the night every single night, Kaitlyn pointed out.

"But what if u don’t randomly wake up in the middle of the night..." she wrote to the cookbook author. "Do you just eat them for breakfast????"

"I wake up for at least a half an hour like 4 times a night," Chrissy responded.

"What the hell that’s AWFUL," Nu chimed in with a sad face.

"Yea maybe it’s the eggs lol," Chrissy then admitted.

I have so many thoughts about this, but Lezlie could be on to something: "Maybe try eating just the whites..."

As I recently learned from Oprah's friend Dr. Oz, who sadly wants to #CancelBreakfast, one reason we wake up craving "the most important meal of the day" is because we ate too the night before. That makes you roll out of bed "starving like a drug addict," per the doc.

“Because you had some simple carbohydrates like a potato chip or french fries at 10 at night, that means your body’s insulin's all whacked up. By the next morning, that withdrawal is happening," Dr. Oz recently said. "You’re starving like a drug addict. You got to get your meds."

So maybe the "night eggs" really are the culprit?!
