Morgenmete is a print food journal exploring the absurdity of life through the setting of breakfast
It combines personal essays, short fiction, long-form features, photo spreads, recipes and illustration into one delicious package.
‘The Always Connected Issue’ believes the breakfast table is the best lens to examine our connected culture. Frustrated with mindlessly scrolling, living in notification hell, it’s hard to get away from being extremely online, and breakfast is no exception. We examine what this means for the first meal of the day with deep stories, delicious photo essays, syrupy reads and hot dishes. Come hungry.
Features
- Dive deep into technology’s intersection with breakfast. Cristina Vanko looks at how rules around breakfast make navigating dating apps easier, and Muriel Vega compares international breakfast preferences with WhatsApp versus iMessage use.
- Elizabeth Goodspeed explores how cereal has reflected the way we eat and live for more than 160 years up until the recent boom of $40 cereal packs.
Reflections from early pandemic life are examined throughout this issue. Diana Wynne explores slowing down during the early days of COVID-19, and Georgette Eva reflects on how morning coffee rituals changed when our favorite cafés were no longer open to us. - Gerard + Belevender explores emerging technologies with generative AI breakfast renderings, and then reimagines what our bots give us back in a photo essay.

- Suzanne Saroff expounds on one of her favorite photographic subjects: the humble egg.
- Tess Malone talks to Alejandra Luaces about how her bakery, Hell Yeah Gluten Free, experienced a sensational rise on Instagram, and interviews Boss Barista’s Ashley Rodriguez about her coffee-culture Substack and podcast.
