==Reception==

The album received generally positive reviews. ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' called it "engagingly intimate" while at the same time "playful and pop-y, with just enough dry humor". The magazine also praised the album for its storytelling-esque lyrics.<ref>[https://www.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/whitechocolatespaceegg-19980730 Whitechocolatespaceegg : Liz Phair : Review : Rolling Stone<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> ''[[The Washington Times]]'' wrote that Phair had successfully proved she was "no longer an unbridled twentysomething but now, at 31, a wife and mother, [who] has grown as an artist as well as a woman."<ref>[https://www.questia.com/read/1G1-56759964 Liz Phair grows confident about music.

''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' praised the album, noting "droll in her truth-telling, devastating in her offhand insights, and dazzling in her homespun rock dominion, Liz Phair is arguably the most original talent of the decade, as ''Whitechocolatespaceegg'' powerfully reaffirms. For track-to-track subtlety, poignant wit, and no- bullshit pronouncements that carry real poetic weight, Phair is the backstairs bard without peer...Phair is a truly affecting songmaker. Moreover, she can take the pop vernacular in all its jukebox/folk-pop/dancefloor familiarity and make it subversive again on superb material like "Uncle
Alvarez," "Only Son," "Ride," and "What Makes You Happy."  <ref name="Billboard19610828">{{cite magazine|url=https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Billboard/90s/1998/BB-1998-08-01.pdf|magazine=Billboard Music Week|title=Reviews & Previews|issue=1 August 1998 |page=18 |access-date=July 23, 2024}}</ref>
