As we roll through the primaries, endorsements are flying left and right like flapjacks at a lumberjack convention. We, as a food blog, are giving an endorsement so the voters can know who to turn to for the food-related issues that really matter in this election.

The Food Blog endorses… Breakfast.

Mom and Eggo commercials are right when they say the morning meal is the most important. It maintains metabolism and helps us concentrate on our mid-day piano recitals and county commissioner meetings. Most importantly, many of our favorite foods are from the conventional breakfast food family: eggs, pancakes, waffles, pastries in general, salty meats, any and all breads, maple syrup and citrus fruits.

Just check out this PSA from 1992 that displays the importance of breakfast.





Pancakes. French toast. Waffles. That’s at least three different things you can put syrup on all in one meal category. What can you put syrup on at dinner? Mashed potatoes? NY strip steak? Sure, you can put syrup on those things, but I’ll see you in hell.
