I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.

    Other things aren’t “breakfast”. While I understand that it’s only tradition that makes foods be for a specific meal, it’s hard to get around. Chicken is not a breakfast food.

    So where do you get protein in foods that identify as breakfast? Cereals and grains are mostly carb or fiber, not good sources of protein. Sausages and bacons are not lean and are not healthy foods. then there are eggs, and there are many ways to prepare eggs

      Sure, butterfly a chicken breast and fry it over high heat. Or eat cheese. Or make succotash, or lentil soup.

      All of our cultural defaults for breakfast are terrible for us anyways, we need to eat other things regardless.
