Eggs are one of my favorite things to eat at any time of day.



I think you're lying to yourself.

My wife makes egg bites a couple times a month. She does a Starbucks egg bites clone with ricotta I believe, which is pretty interchangeable with cottage.

Got our first cutting of asparagus yesterday so threw that in a frittata this morning. Pretty great

Christianity, in an effort to supplant the pagan religions, "conveniently" has their major holidays at the same time of year as those religions. Christmas is close to the winter solstice. Easter is close to all the spring fertility rituals that were common in those pagan religions at the time. 

Bunnies (you know they $&#^ like rabbits) represent fertility. So do eggs. 

Is it any surprise that they subsumed the things that represented those celebrations to attract people away from them? Not to me.

I think you're lying to yourself. 
Has it ever occurred to you that people might just enjoy "breakfast foods", or even eggs, for reasons that have nothing to do with the egg lobby? 

I mean, different times of day require different nutritional sustenance--especially back in the "olden" times. Breakfast was the meal that fueled you for a hard day toiling in the fields (or factories). As such, complex carbs like pastries were common. Porridge (complex carbs) were common. Eggs (lots of protein and energy in a compact and cheap package) were common. Even when you look at other cultures, like China, congee is basically the same as porridge and was common. 

The idea that we have something called "breakfast foods" isn't a conspiracy. Our dietary needs aren't the same in the morning as they are in the evening. Long before we had a USA, long before we had an "egg lobby", the fact that people ate different foods in the morning than the evening was common. 

I realize you don't like eggs. I have my own hangups--I don't like coconut. But I don't spend my days acting like people who like coconut are lying to themselves, or they're falling victim to the "coconut lobby", because they like something I don't.

I love eggs, in a wide variety of forms. I know people who do not like eggs. I'm not right or wrong and neither are they. I spend zero time caring whether or not a person likes eggs.

Do the OC palm trees have coconuts? The ones here are bereft of coconuts, but our Floridian posters are getting coconuts and Frozen iguanas in theirs.

Our society, in a nutshell (or egg shell).  Nonsense.
