In lieu of another determination, please feel free to view this video, shot by the great Stacie Wilhelm, in which one half of the What Is Breakfast Committee discusses the menu at an all-day-breakfast joint called Toast:
(In case you were curious, the pronounced lisp that may be heard in this short film/documentary is the result of an allergic reaction contracted by said committee member, which caused her tongue to swell up and overlap her teeth*. Her speech impediment is not normally this obvious.)
*I am not even joking.

A Little Disclaimer Before Breakfast
We, The What Is Breakfast Committee, have no desire to deny that our judgements are both culturally and historically specific, bound to the dining norms of the United States of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. We are mindful, too, that traditions change over time and that culinary choices are often subject to economic, regional, ethical, and practical considerations. We thus attempt in our judgements to balance our understanding of established tradition with the general praxis of alimentary decision-making that is daily negotiated by the average American.
When in doubt, we flip a coin.

Here's a review for you: I wish my life's biggest dilemmas hadn't gone unresolved for like three months now.
Jordan, I couldn't agree more. I hope you joined me in hurling vicious insults at the screen while Jessy lisped away.
stacie's captions are officially the best thing ever. i can be happy about that because i've already had my query answered. but i feel for the rest of you.
your lisp is cute. you should be allergic more often.
could you do the Dempsey's menu next time?
jordan and david: just remember, you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. although flies are Not Breakfast. so i'm not sure if that saying is helpful or not.
carly: thanks for your support.
jason: thanks for thinking my pain is adorable. you're a true friend.
also, i'll look into the menu-determinations-video-blog series as a possibility.
