Breakfast Sangwich: Egg, Cheese, and …

SAUSAGE LINKS?!  Doth my eyes deceive me?  I’ve been eating quick, run-of-the-mill breakfast sandwiches in the city for years, and I haven’t seen this before.. EVER!  My childhood man boobs (and my moderately sized down adult boobs) bounced with joy at the sight!

Sure, it wasn’t the best quality, but I take what I can get.  It was an forgettable breakfast “cafe” near the 5th Avenue Apple Store.  I didn’t gripe over the lack of egg.  Look how much pig were between these buns!

Stopped this morning at JP Bagel Express near the Hoboken PATH station.  I normally avoid this spot, as the bagel’s are only so-so, and rather pricey ($2.50+ with cream cheese).  My appetite, as in most cases, got the best of me.  I went with the standard sausage, egg, and cheese on a poppy roll.  And wouldn’t you know, I got a standard, so-so sandwich, featuring regular patty-style sausage, and un-melted cheese (honestly? It’s not tough to melt it down…).  They used real egg, and the roll was fluffy and had a decent crust.  Though no outstanding flavor, certainly nothing worth repeating.

Wheat bread for my sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich from Champs Deli costs $.30 extra.If I want brown rice instead of white with my beef with brocolli, that’ll be $.50 more.  A salad with mixed greens MUST cost more than a salad with romaine.  When will these commonly held “premium” food upgrades start becoming the standard instead of the exception?  Why should healthy alternatives have to come at a cost?
