>“Why are breakfast food breakfast foods?" I asked them. "Like, why don't we have curry for breakfast?"

"Hazel, eat."

"But why?" I asked. "I mean seriously: How did scrambled eggs get stuck with breakfast exclusivity? You can put bacon on a sandwich without anyone freaking out. But the moment your sandwich has an egg, boom, it's a breakfast sandwich.”

John green repurposes Wittgenstein for the masses.

People didn't used to eat eggs and bacon for breakfast.

>Before this, the majority of Americans ate more modest, often meatless breakfasts that might include fruit, a grain porridge (oat, wheat or corn meals) or a roll, and usually a cup of coffee.

>In the 1920s, Bernays was approached by the Beech-Nut Packing Company – producers of everything from pork products to the nostalgic Beech-Nut bubble gum. Beech-Nut wanted to increase consumer demand for bacon. Bernays turned to his agency’s internal doctor and asked him whether a heavier breakfast might be more beneficial for the American public. Knowing which way his bread was buttered, the doctor confirmed Bernays suspicion and wrote to five thousand of his doctors friends asking them to confirm it as well. This ‘study’ of doctors encouraging the American public to eat a heavier breakfast – namely ‘Bacon and Eggs’ – was published in major newspapers and magazines of the time to great success. Beech-Nut’s profits rose sharply thanks to Bernays and his team of medical professionals.

Pretty interesting read, but has literally no information on eggs. It's entirely about marketing bacon for a bacon company. And the article is severely lacking sources besides the video (not that I doubt it, but desire to know more intensified). Also, you're wrong to say "people didn't eat" those foods for breakfast before. They just didn't as much as they do now.

And regardless, both bacon and eggs are cheap and plentiful, and they're simple to prepare, which is ideal for breakfast. If someone wants more than grain/fruit with their breakfast, bacon/eggs are ideal for that, you just cook them in a skillet and they're ready in a couple minutes.

Anyone who eats scrambled eggs for anything besides breakfast is disgusting. I don't care about your "Le random societal norms xD" it's legitimately off-putting to eat scrambled eggs for lunch or dinner.

We eat eggs for breakfast because they are easy as fuck to make from scratch. All you do is crack the egg into a hot pan and wait a couple of minutes.

For lunch and dinner you have more time and energy to prepare something more complicated.

The Dichotomy of Breakfast Foods and the Inherent Value of Revolting Against the Assigned Gastronomic Social Construct

With all due respect to the so called scrambled eggs and ham specials clearly labeled behind foggy plastic covers in Waffle Houses all around America, not excluding Denny’s, Crackle Barrels and the like. What makes a food a “breakfast” food is quite folly.

If one examines the cultural paradigm of Breakfast, as parallel to Americana, one is faced with a choice: either accept predialectic libertarianism or conclude that the raison d’etre of the scrambled eggs is social comment, but only if Derrida’s essay on cultural Marxism and Tip Inclusion is valid; if that is not the case, we can assume that breakfast has objective value. Von Ludwig suggests that we have to choose between predialectic hashbrowns and neosemiotic capitalist sausage.

However, many narratives concerning Foucaultist power relations may be found. If cultural Marxism holds, we have to include tip for the subtextual breakfast service after 11am, a paradigm of expression and established patriarchial theory. However, an abundance of narratives concerning a mythopoetical breakfast meals for dinner as a whole does exist. Derrida uses the term ‘predialectic breakfast for dinner’ to denote not discourse, as subdialectic theory suggests, but prediscourse.

In the works of Snyder, a predominant concept is the distinction between cape kino and cape shit. But the subject is contextualized into a cultural Marxism that includes art as a paradox (scrambled eggs as breakfast/extraterrestrial as godhead). Marx uses the term ‘Hella epic quip theory’ to denote the paradigm, and thus the dialectic, of textual class.

The primary theme of Looking for Alaska’s critique of the Country Gravy narrative is not deconstruction, but postdeconstruction. However, Derrida promotes the use of Baudrillardist hyperreal Biscuits to challenge class divisions. The premise of TFIOS implies that the goal of the eater is deconstruction. Therefore, several theories concerning cultural Marxism may be discovered. Capitalist capitalism states that expression is a product of communication. Thus, TFIOS suggests the use of cultural Marxism to read sexual identity. In Ghostbusters Feig deconstructs subcultural capitalist theory; in Spy, M. McCarthy affirms the Country Gravy narrative.

It could be said that Green suggests that we have to choose between the material paradigm of context and neocultural capitalist theory. Singlehandedly and without pretense arriving at the conclusion that we must imagine the scrambled eggs isolated and free to choose a gastronomical denomination. Ok? Ok.

>>9319601
If he's not talking about eggs laid morning of, then "easy to grab and cook" applies to almost all food available to a pre-industrial farmer. As other anon said, it's called "break fast" for a reason. To anyone in the biological sciences, you're fasting whenever you aren't eating, and the time between dinner and breakfast is the longest of the day. At that point the body has completely run out of energy from its last major round of glycolysis and is tapping into glycogen and fatty acid reserves, so you need some fucking carbs to get your blood sugar up.
