Fully agreed, Sam Sifton. My breakfasts, particularly during the week, are not elaborate affairs. They're not always pretty, as shown above, and are more often than not taken to-go, but they are a vital part of each day. Often it's a wedge of fritatta, sometimes an egg white omelette or a nuked egg with veggies, cheese and bacon if I've got some (not the best texture, but quick and portable). Sometimes it's a hard-boiled egg, and today it was an English muffin with smashed avocado. Lately I've been adding fruit — half a grapefruit or pineapple chunks. The coup de grace is coffee — generally just a pour-over directly into my travel mug, but sometimes a latte or shakerato.
If I didn't eat breakfast, I'd likely bite someone's head off by about 11.
