Cooked anchovies can be made more palatable. In fact, there are some things that I wouldn't do without it (like say, a puttanesca). They add a distinct salty, nutty flavor and isn't fishy at all. You just want to dice them and brown them in olive oil and they essentially disintegrate.

A few of you think that cooking an egg is simple, liking adding sugar to coffee or tea, but even this video didn't quite get it right. Cooking eggs perfectly is a difficult task that takes a lot of practice.

I'd recommend a fry pan (not a griddle), more butter (enough to baste the top of your egg to cook the yolk), and lower temperature (because browned eggs are more a personal preference than something one would teach others to do).

Generally speaking, for a healthy diet, higher fat foods are eaten at breakfast.

"Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper."

So my guess is that as a result of this old adage, chicken hasn't naturally worked its way into our culture the way that pork has. Chicken is a bit on the lean side.

Additionally, I think chicken is a bit fussy to cook in the morning when time might be a concern.

It also doesn't reheat as well as other, fattier proteins.
