Paper and fire

Since i was talking about fire, there's something quite interesting to know. It seems that you can cook an egg with paper. One way is to wrap the egg with paper and constantly wet it while it's on the fire. You do know why you need to wet the paper right? It's to make sure that the paper doesn't catch fire. Another way is, well i'm not sure about this. I've never tried it but i've watched it before, cooking the egg in a paper folded box or paper bag. You'll have to break an egg into a paper box or paper bag then put it on the fire. It has something to do with science, the cooking point of the egg is below the combustion (?) point of the paper or something like that. So the paper won't burn with the egg inside, that is until the egg is cooked. Fact or fiction? I say fact.
