Answers:
Eggs are classed as "Farm Produce" (not dairy)

This means that they come from animals without being meat, and can be eaten by vegetarians because hens lay eggs naturally!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

eggs are NOT in the dairy ctagory!. This is a common mistake!. Dairy means containing animal milk!. Eggs have non of the sort!.

an egg is an animals offspring!. Here is the actual defenition

An egg is a round or oval body laid by the female of many animals, consisting of an ovum surrounded by layers of membranes and an outer casing, which acts to nourish and protect a developing embryo and its nutrient reserves!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dairy is related to products that come from animals, rather than the meat of that animal!. I think its more convenient to put them in dairy, rather than them being actual dairy!. Milk and eggs are renewable resources from an animal!. I suppose if we could eat hair and toenails, that would count too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eggs are like our human eggs!. Hens can lay them everday (as we ovalate every month) and if they are not fertilised, they come out (what you eat)!.

Milk is for baby cows/goats as is our milk for our babies!. We just drink theirs because it tastes nice!. xD
Yoghurt, cheese and cream all come from fiddling about with milk!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

egg: oval reproductive body of a fowl (especially a hen) used as food

kidding!.

Eggs belong to the dairy section!.!.!.

You have a point, though!.

dairy: referring to products produced from milk!.

But, they're considered dairy products!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I agree that they aren't dairy products, but they are usually grouped with dairy products, as they basically don't involve killing the animal to get them!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eggs are under the dairy category because they are protein and come from animals, though do not contain animal blood!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
