About two weeks after posting a photo of an egg which recently became the most-liked Instagram post, the @world_record_egg account released a nearly identical photo, and it seems people dig it as well.
The new picture, which features an egg with a slightly cracked shell, has already accrued over 4.6 million “likes”, about 14 hours after it was posted.
The image also sparked a flurry of activity on social media, with people wondering what it could mean.
