{{Needs update|the recommended spaceships are outdated due to the atreggies coming out with 1.31. until we get more data in like a year though we won't be able to make any proper solid recommendations}}

'''Ingredients''', also called '''Materials''', are items in [[Egg, Inc.]] introduced in [[Version History|Version 1.20]] alongside [[Artifacts]] and [[Eggfinity Stones]]. They are used in crafting [[Artifacts]], and are primarily found via [[Spaceships]].

''Fragments might also be considered Ingredients, as they can be used to create Eggfinity Stones, but for organizational purposes all Stone Fragments are presently on the [[Eggfinity Stones|Eggfinity Stones]] page alongside their corresponding Eggfinity Stones.''
==List of Ingredients==
'''WARNING: <u>The recommended spaceships is currently outdated as of the recent 1.31 update introducing the [[Spaceships|Atreggies Henliner]], and as such the recommendations should be taken warily. Until more data is gathered, you should simply replace all Henerprise recommendations with Henliner recommendations of the same length.</u>'''

Recommended Spaceships are the Spaceships that yield the greatest amount of the given Ingredient in the shortest possible time. Minimum values assume no stars and no purchased [[Epic Research]] that affects Spaceships, whereas maximum values assume all stars and maxed relevant Epic Research. The 'yield' of a higher tier Ingredient assumes you craft up the lower tier ones first, and follows the same minimum and maximum values (since it's a simple division). '/day' lists the average amount of the given Ingredient in a 24-hour timespan, from the first Spaceship to the last, and assumes constant launching of three of that Spaceship.

All values do not take [[Special Event]]s into account. Additionally, the information displayed here is based on empirical data provided by the [https://wasmegg-carpet.netlify.app/artifact-explorer Artifact explorer].

Values formatted in ''italics'' and an attached <sup>superscript</sup> question mark (?) are likely inaccurate due to a lack of data.
