I’ve never understood the appeal, or how it works.

  • do people just wake up and start consuming food/drink without brushing their teeth & washing their face?
  • if not, do they get out of bed to wash up and then get back in bed to eat!?
  • what’s the appeal? I get liking someone else making your breakfast, but why is having it in bed fun?

    I suppose you don’t HAVE to. But I find it unhygienic to eat before brushing my teeth as soon as I wake up. Might just be my personal issue. 🤷‍♂️

      For me it’s the other way around. After eating I want to clean my teeth.

      The taste of toothpaste lingers for a while and ruins the flavor of breakfast, especially orange juice.

      The Way™ is Coffee/tea/juice to temporarily overwrite that morning breath feeling, then breakfast, then brushing teeth.

        The way™️ is to drink enough water and actually brush before bed. If you’re sufficiently hydrated, and you don’t have all that bacteria shitting up your mouth then your morning breath will be a lot less stanky.
