If you think bacon and sausage are better breakfast choices than sugary oatmeal, you are out of your mind.
Always start my day with half a tin of tuna with 15g fat from almonds walnuts and olive oil mixed together with black pepper. A lot nicer than it sounds. Oh and a chicken breast and my fish is and evening primrose oil. Comes in about 50g protein and 24g fat. Never rest carbs in my first meal

Primrose is weak, borage is where it's at. Kids these days.Generally, when someone talks about primrose oil, I know they've consulted with Shelby at some point. LOL.

Celtic sea salt is nice tooIt's kind of funny that humans are the only species that eat specific foods as 'breakfast' foods. Why not have a steak for breakfast, some london broil, seafood, chicken thighs, etc?
Anyway, that being said most of my favorite fat sources have been listed but just to reiterate:
Farm fresh eggs
Bacon (from healthy pigs)
Sausage (from healthy pigs)
Avocado
Coconut Oil
Grass-fed butter/Ghee
Red Palm Oil
Fatback/Pork belly
Grass-fed beef
Wild caught seafood
Cacao nibs
Macadamia Nuts/Nut butter
Sunflower seeds/butter
Full fat pastured (preferably raw) dairy (cheese, yogurt, kefir, sour cream, etc)
Olives/olive oil
Lard
Duck fat
Tallow
Those are the main ones, sometimes I'll rotate in things like avocado oil, macadamia nut oil, organ meat and other 'unusual' cuts, etc.
That's a pretty good list IMHO and you should be able to combine stuff to make a wide variety of things.
A couple things I eat regularly:
-Steak and eggs with a little Himalayan Pink Salt and fresh ground pepper, yogurt or kefir
-Omelette with home cured ham, peppers and goat cheese with fresh guac on top and some bacon
-Scrambled eggs with red palm oil on top, spicy sausage, few onces of fatback and a handful of cacao nibs
-Lettuce wrap with shrimp, avocado, crabmeat, bacon, cherry tomatoes and either a handful of macadamia nuts, or a couple spoonfuls of sunbutter (sunflower seed butter)
*Also, I cook everything in saturated fats, they are more stable and best for cooking so that imparts some fat as well. I use lard more than anything.
Celtic sea salt is nice too
That...is an impressive selection. The Real McCoy vs The Real Deal Holyfield, which one to pick first?I keep that on hand as well. I actually have probably half a dozen different kinds of salt depending on what I'm using it for. Some for cooking, some for finishing, some for a certain taste, etc. lol.
My sister lives in Brooklyn and can send me salt from this place, they have a great selection.

Seems low or no carb first meal of the day is popular, what's the methodology. Avoid the insulin spike?

There are so many factors at play from individual to individual it's tough to say.
Some would have you take most of your daily carbs after fasting all night and after training.
