Eggs, avocados, pears, anything that shape will work.

People will let the elites talk to them like that actually. I am sure the WSJ could print an article saying "let rich people shit in your mouth, a solution to hunger" and people will still take it.

What's the full article say? I can only see the beginning of it

Thank you! Disappointing that the article is just a bunch of numbers

Impressive. Very nice. Let's see the author's net worth

Article: maybe you should skip breakfast to save money

Bacon and Eggs suppliers: supply skyrockets while demand falls

Article: Please start eating breakfast!

Next thing you know the article will read "To Save Money, Maybe You Should Skip Eating" just so the rich can blame the poor for the crumbling economy that was/is actually caused by them doing the very bare minimum to support it.

I shit you not I saw one that was like "money troubles? Sell some of your stuff." I'll have to look through my files and find the exact post. lol

Loss of appetite is already a common symptom of depression, so nobody needs to give the lower classes this advice; it is redundant.

I’ve already been doing this for a while and you don’t see me bragging about it

i may have a wrong impression but dont europeans go very light on breakfast already?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

It's just a metaphor; they should skip lunch and heating instead.

In the US, breakfast is a lot of people's entire personality. They like to worship their bacon here in Burgerland.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Compared to Americans? Probably.

I don't know how representative I am for the average European but I usually have some eggs or a cup of skyr with fruits and/or oats for breakfast.

i remember going to spain with some relatives as a kid and damn i was perpetually starving because our breakfast was 1 slice of bread with coffee. maybe they just were cheap i guess.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, sounds likely.
