NYT Strands today — hints, answers and spangram for Saturday, June 1 (game #90)

Weekend Strands are the best kind of Strands, because I have the time to play them at a leisurely pace, rather than frantically attempting to solve them alongside Wordle, Quordle and Connections before work. Not that today’s took me too long anyway – it’s a rather simple one. If you do need help, though, you’ll find some below. 

SPOILER WARNING: Information about NYT Strands today is below, so don’t read on if you don’t want to know the answers.

Quiche? For breakfast? Is that a thing? I suppose there’s no reason why you can’t eat quiche for breakfast, but then there’s no reason why you can’t eat macaroni, or pad Thai, or marshmallows or roast turkey with all the trimmings for breakfast. You do you. 

Quiche aside, this was remarkably easy. The theme clue was less a clue and more a direct guide to what to look for, and BREAKFAST, the spangram was the very first word I spotted. 

In fact, I solved this one without even uncovering a single hint word, let alone using one. This is something I’ve been discussing with a reader who emailed me about her game, and how she did the same thing; we’re calling it a ‘mega-perfect’. (I do still have hint words above for those who need them, but I came up with these after I’d finished playing.)

Anyway, the likes of EGGS, BACON, WAFFLE and OATMEAL were easy to find, and by the time I got to QUICHE it was the only word that fit.
