It's not breakfast, it's brokefast!
Bob, your logic is flawed because you are not a woman: women do not eat while walking, standing in elevators, standing in hallways, climbing stairs, strolling along the street... If a woman is on her way to her office (or other specific location), she will carry her wrap (or sandwich or bagel or croissant or cookie...) with her until she gets there, then she will sit down and eat her food and drink her drink.
Also, women don't eat with one hand the way men do. Think about how, uh, yucky it would look. Holding a coffee cup in one hand and pushing in the food with the other.. uh, kind of Neanderthal. Actually, it doesn't look that elegant when men do it. That dipping-the-head-down-to-the-food move that invariably factors in really screams "I'm never getting promoted higher than the mail room."
The final element is the purse/briefcase. If a woman has a coffee cup and a food item and a purse/case, the latter is most likely hanging from a shoulder strap. Eating/drinking and keeping the purse firmly on the shoulder requires an extra element of balance; moving the active arm throws off one or both shoulders which can result in the purse suddenly sliding down the arm and knocking against that hot coffee cup or the sandwich, sending it flying.
We're women. We don't need to prove physical strength or dexterity. We can wait the extra two minutees to get where we're going. We know it's smarter and a lot more attractive just to take it where you're going and deal with it properly.
Commercials! God love'um. What would I do without them?!
