Now I know what you’re thinking: what’s so special about pepper on eggs? Why are you finally deciding to make a big deal out of this? What even took you so long to write this article?

Well I’m very glad you asked! Pepper on egg is an absolutely big deal, not just for myself, but for everyone who enjoys their favorite breakfast of egg! Here are five reasons why it is so:

1. Pepper has quite a bit of health benefits.

According to SmartCooky.com, black pepper has a bunch of unexpected health benefits, such as stimulating digestion, improving your skin, and even acts as an agent against cancer! Combine that with the impressive 7 grams of protein and a collection of necessary vitamins and minerals, and you already got a recipe for one health-packed morning meal!

2. Pepper gives eggs that extra kick that can go with any combination of ingredients.

In addition to its health benefits, it’s spicy, zesty flavor can go with just about any ingredients that also go well with egg! Stuff like spinach, red and green peppers, ketchup, and even mushrooms make for a colorful and varied flavor combination that your taste buds just can’t resist.

3. Also gives eggs the extra pizzaz they need for those appetizing egg dishes.

Like just look at this.

Look at that beautiful pepper sprinkling on that delicious yolk. Just. So good.

4. Can go with any style of egg, too!

And ya’ll thought it goes well with sunny-side up? GUESS AGAIN. Goes well poached, scrambled, as an omelette, even boiled, as french toast and as breakfast burrito.

5. Just tastes better than eating eggs with salt. It just does.

Like at this point you shouldn’t even bother with salt on egg. Egg already got 62 grams of sodium. Do you really need more of that? Do you honestly need more sodium in your life than you already have? You find that shit on just about every single thing you eat everyday so don’t even try thinking about putting in more grimy salt onto that egg. Absolutely disgusting.
