Coffee and pills

I don't eat. I run on thoughts, prayers, and the power of friendship.

I love a nice breakfast burrito.

Usually nothing. When I do have breakfast it's either pancakes and eggs or milk and cereal. Every now and then I get a wild hair and have oatmeal.

I find the lack of cheese in the comments very concerning.

The scraps of my children's uneaten breakfasts, so:

• half an egg sandwich

• the dregs of a bowl of oatmeal with maple syrup, mixed with whatever unsyruped oatmeal I can scrape out of the pot

• about four apple slices and half a bagel

on days my spouse cooks breakfast. When I cook, everyone eats pancakes.

Greek yogurt, walnuts, craisins, pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts, chia seeds, maybe cinnamon, maybe a dash of honey, possibly some frozen fruit if I feel like waiting for it to thaw a bit. Coffee with a dash of oatmilk.

Technically nothing, but I do have coffee at the office.

Except on Thursday. That's doughnut day.

I almost never eat breakfast. Maybe a few times per year. I usually don't get up early enough.

I am genuinely floored by how many people here are claiming to actually eat breakfast. Tf is all the chia pudding bananas toast eggs shit??? For me, and everyone I know, breakfast is a special occasion for days off. My wife and I make breakfast maybe 10 times a year. I've always heard Lemmy's average age is on the higher end, and this thread has confirmed it for me.

Coffee and a water.

Nothing, I cant be bothered

Nothing. Last thing on my mind in the morning is food.

Appetite usually kicks in my the late afternoon/early evening, when I have my first and usually only meal.

3 cups of coffee. Unless it's 4.

Well I’m Asian and don’t really do the typical American breakfast. I just eat whatever, leftovers maybe. I’ll have coffee over tea though, so that’s pretty American of me lol

Three options each with a couple of options, depending on factors:

If short on time or lazy:

• Cold cereal with milk
• Granola + yogurt

If motivated:

• Scrambled eggs with cheese, salsa, breakfast potatoes / toast, hot sauce or spicy chicken mixed in
• Pancakes with butter + jam

If depression:

• Nothing and then early lunch

Most of the time, nothing. I tend to drink tea in the morning (usually, an hour after I wake up do I do that). Green tea with a dairy-free creamer is something I love to do a lot, actually.

Usually coffee. Plunger, at least a pot. Otherwise it's pretty evenly split between vegemite toast, taiwanese green onion pancakes from trader joe's, or maybe a bagel, granola, shakshuka or left over takeout.

I grew up outside the country though, hence not being a fan of us style drip coffee which always taste like hay to me.

Rather than tell you what I personally eat, maybe it will be useful to know what American diners serve for breakfast. You can walk into any locally-owned diner anywhere in the country and order from a menu almost exactly like this:

• Breakfast Combo: Two eggs (scrambled, fried, or over easy/medium/hard), meat (bacon, sausage links, steak, or ham), and a carb (pancakes, toast, a biscuit, or hash browns)
• Biscuits and Gravy: Two biscuits with sausage gravy over the top. Sometimes served with an egg.
• Pancakes: A short stack is 2 and a tall stack is 4. Served with maple syrup.
• Skillet/Omelet: Eggs scrambled with onions, bell peppers, cheese, and meat. An alternate version, sometimes called “loaded hash browns,” uses hash browns instead of eggs.
• Breakfast Burrito: An omelet wrapped up in a tortilla. May be smothered with red or green chili sauce for a Tex-Mex spin.
• Oatmeal: Boiled oats with fruit, granola, syrup, etc.
• Eggs Benedict: Poached egg on an English muffin with ham and hollandaise sauce.

And then each diner will have their own “famous” specialty, like stuffed French toast, “home fries” (pan-fried potato chunks), huge pancakes, or sausage made in house. It’s hard to go wrong though, American breakfasts are consistently pretty tasty.

My kids and I typically have a bowl of cold milk and cereal, and (separately) a chicken egg cooked in one of several ways.

On the weekends I cook eggs in a different style for each member of the family, bacon or sausage, pancakes or waffles or crepes with jam/maple syrup.

I personally tend to have leftovers from dinner if there are any and if it's leftovers I care about. Otherwise, I'm not a big breakfast fan.

bagel and cream cheese, with coffee.

Cold leftover pizza.

I make a warm mug of Ovaltine®. But with coffee instead of milk. It's... effective.

Twin Peaks (1990) gives one a good sense of American breakfasts.

Puffed corn cereal sweetened with corn sugar

I have to eat really quick on workdays, so I don't always get anything, but usually cereal, or I'll spread applesauce and cinnamon on homemade bread if I've prepared some the last few days. Or recently pan dulce if I happen to have bought any recently because there's a bakery nearby that ive discovered sells it fresh for quite cheap.

I have a cup of coffee (milk, no sugar) two fried eggs and a piece of buttered toast.

Most commonly one the following; granola with nuts and dried fruit topped with yogurt, peanut butter and banana sandwich, eggs and toast.

Coffee, peanut butter sandwich, and a banana (shout out gwen Stefani)

This morning, I had bacon, easy-over eggs, stir-fried potatoes, and buttered rye toast.

Unflavored shredded wheat cereal with frozen berries, toast or vegetarian sausage, and quality tea.

In summer, I'll sometimes swap the tea for a smoothie if it's been hot.

Black coffee and patience.

Whole wheat toast topped with peanut butter, sorghum syrup, and bananas. The toast has fiber and the peanut butter has protein. The bananas and the tiniest drop of sorghum add enough sweetness to round out the flabor but contain less added sugar than most cereal.

I went quite a few years making oatmeal for myself and my kids every day, usually with brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and frozen blueberries.

the kids have stopped enjoying it, though, after all the repetition, so we've started doing breakfast cereal, Raisin Bran and one of the Cheerios permutations that has some oat/nut ingredients, so these days I just have Raisin Bran.

Black coffee. Nicotine lozenges.

Nothing. If I eat breakfast I'm hungry by 10 and that sucks.

If I don't have a choice about eating breakfast, but I do get to select what to eat, eggs and hashbrowns.

But I also eat those for lunch and dinner because they are yummy.

Either a large piece of buttered toast or a bowl of yogurt.

Either an egg over easy with whole wheat toast, overnight steel rolled oats with fruit and walnuts, or a smoothie with no sugar yogurt, walnuts, and fruit

Breakfast sausage and eggs usually and depending on my mood coffee or hot tea. Sometimes I cook potatoes with it usually in the form or hash browns or using left over mash potatoes to make potato cakes. I usually vary sausage and eggs to either an omelette, burrito, if I have peppers on hand or a sandwich when I want cheese with it, else usually sausage patties and eggs over easy or sunny side up. If there's left over rice, egg fried rice with sausage.
