I still eat a heavier breakfast but I don't usually eat donuts or pancakes. I have tried eating some packaged sweets for breakfast when I had no time though, just not anything fancy like a birthday cake. I don't see any argument against getting your calories mostly in the morning so you can burn them off throughout the day, but on the rare occasion I go to one of those breakfast restaurants I still end up ordering an omelet because I don't like the sugar crash from just eating pancakes or waffles. Maybe have a little bit of pancake or waffle with your omelet like desert (heh) but I don't have as much of a sweet tooth as most Americans and this feels funny to say because my normal diet is full of Jamaican jerk and pineapple curry and orange everything, I just add the sweet flavors to some real food with protein and nutritional content instead of basically eating cake for a meal.
The sugar crash from pancakes or waffles is exactly why for me, they are not something that I consume in the morning. But I like the idea of having a little waffle or tiny pancake with that omelet or other proteins. Adding a sweet element to some savory protein is always a tasty way to go, I love the spicy/sweet combination though, usually in an Asian inspired dish of some sorts.
A banana.. I like to put something into my stomach before I begin my day ... a yoghurt anything quick.
I like cooking but only when I have time. Once in a while I will have that heart attack on a plate! ... Or bacon dipped in chocolate.. or pork belly ... no, I'm not overweight...
I seem to like everything that is supposedly not good for me.
I was told to graze... I'm not a Llama... 5 or 6 small potions all through the day to avoid the big snack attack! Hahahaha
I often don't find the time for that, especially prepairing something fresh everytime, trying to avoid processed stuff.
I eat a lot of rice or quinoa, it can be pre-cooked amd either
Grandma used to say: a little bit of everything all in good measure.
I too seem to have a love of everything that is "bad" for me, but yes everything in moderation, when possible and balance is key. I try to pick a couple of days a week to cook batches of something, soup or like you said rice, or some kind of grains that can be cooked in bulk and eaten through the week for a quick meal. Cooking takes time and we all seem to be short of it. Thank you for your comment!
Interestingly enough, the main reason I eat steel cut oats and fruit every day for breakfast is that just in case I do have that whole bag of Dorito's later, at least I already have some good stuff in my system.
Bernays changed an awful lot about how we perceive things! If you wanna see my take on his impact, here it is:
Nice, I remember this one! Today Bernays would be considered a master influencer as he was then just without the internet, imagine what he could have done online.
Yeah dude! He did more than enough to shape the dark forces in the world into something systematic and organized. I love human psychology, but sometimes the more we know about it, the more dangerous we can be (at least individuals).
As always, the fundamental question is; What is a nutritious breakfast? Which foods are nutritious? Very few agree. I have my opinions based on my research, and others have theirs. This is not even to consider whether time restricted eating (also called intermittent fasting) is healthy or harmful. A different topic for certain, but it goes directly to breaking your fast. The debate rages on.

Balance always seems to be the answer.

Yw! True! I thought when I retire I'd have more time... yeah.. all I seem to be, is more disorganized...lol
Have a good day!
