This supposed to be food porn not food crimes
much maligned - avocado toast
I could malign the rest of it too, if you want, for balance. It would be so easy.
I love avocados, but can't say I've ever liquified them then drizzle on toast...
Not the way I've ever had avocado toast.
Are there a lot of differences out there that I haven't run across? Legit, I've never gone looking for regional variations or whatever.
The first way I had it was so good I haven't changed it significantly. Avocado, chunked up and gently mashed with some lime, salt, pepper, and sometimes finely diced onion. A poached egg or two on top. All that on toasted rye.
Sometimes we'll swap out the rye for homemade sourdough. Sometimes we'll add some minced garlic to the avocado, and/or sprinkle some paprika on the egg.
Basically, it dresses up the avocado without fully turning it into guacamole.
That was a very polite and drawn-out way of telling OP that their avocado toast looks like shit, lol.
The bacon, too
And the eggs. Everything looks like it came out of a package and assembled, maybe reheated. Texture is important, there isn’t much here. Plus we also eat with our eyes.
I wouldn't say it looks bad tbh. Very simple for sure, but that's not a bad thing
I'm sure it was great but I gotta say this arrangement of foods and the lighting and the white balance have come together to make the weirdest image. It's somehow really unreal. It's like an artist's impression of food. I think it's mainly the colour and lighting, the avocado is somehow so green it looks almost fake, and the bacon is somehow purple and then the unexpected left turn with the boiled eggs when my brain saw "bacon and eggs" in the title and built an expectation for the typical fried eggs.
Anyway, this is no critique of the food, hope it was good, it sounds good. The image is just somehow hilariously incongruous and strange.
Look I just appreciate people post food here. Don’t stop posting food here, but this particular breakfast is the opposite of porn.
As someone who normally has coffee and smokes for breakfast I would eat this.
Limp ass bacon, bruh
That's that precooked bacon
It's bacon and egg war!
Home made bacon with eggs on home made wholewheat bread for breakfast.
