I just realized I didn’t know any Americans
Coffee and pills
I feel personally attacked.
Same. Sometimes I’ll add in a bagel with cream cheese and tomato.
I don’t eat. I run on thoughts, prayers, and the power of friendship.
Poor guy starved to death. 😔
See it’s funny because whether you believe Ferrety or not the joke works.
I read fried shrimp instead of friendship at first.
I love a nice breakfast burrito.
Ooh. What goes in the burrito?
Breakfast
Egg, potato, cheese, chorizo, hatch green chile, wrapped in a large tortilla. If you’re not a green chile guy, grab some red chile powder and make some red chile sauce and pour that on everything right before rolling.
Imagining zote eating a burrito is so funny
Usually potato, egg, cheese, and a protein (e.g. chicken, sausage, beef, beans, etc.)
Leftover burrito bowl and eggs
Nine cans of ravioli.
I call bs. No one wants to admit they ate nine cans of ravioli…
The fourth and fifth, I think I burned with a blowtorch.
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.
pancakes with or without maple syrup?
They all eat theirs with maple, mine with butter and black pepper.
-
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 don’t generally eat breakfast. I honestly don’t know how people do it, when I wake up the last thing I want to do is eat.
We tend to eat breakfast using mouth
You don’t buttchug food?! Absolutely barbaric.
Please buttchug is trashy. Real mature adults butt slurp there food
Tips fedora
M’anus
Lol
If you would have breakfast regularly it will probably be the opposite. Eating is all about regularity and habituation.
Technically nothing, but I do have coffee at the office.
Except on Thursday. That’s doughnut day.
“Benefits package”
Uh huh huh huh. You said package.
Ctrl-F’d for doughnuts.
It sounds bizzare from where I am, but I do have to admit it’s not that different from a pastry.
Honestly, my favorite “doughnuts” aren’t doughnuts at all. We get a variety, and I go for the cinnamon rolls, fritters or eclairs before I’d grab an actual doughnut.
Also, most Americans can’t spell doughnut, so you’re better off ctrl-fing for donut.
I did that first. One other mention, but right alongside pastries, maybe because OP knew other places think of them as unsuitable for a full meal.
Coffee and cigarettes
Sounds very french lol
Bien sûr!
Expresso gauloise sans filtre
I find the lack of cheese in the comments very concerning.
Leftovers often feature cheese
Omelet au fromage
I rarely eat cheese now because my LDLs were high. :(
What’s your favorite cheese for breakfast and why is it compté??
Comté (FTFY) - Now you can impress all of your friends with your knowledge of good cheese AND spelling!
That’s how you know I’m French, I don’t know how to spell my own language and no one truly does. Too many homonyms… makes it hard.
Compte, conte, comté, condé, dégonder…
Please marry me.
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.
Are you me?!!?? Hello?
3 cups of coffee. Unless it’s 4.
Nothing. Last thing on my mind in the morning is food.
Appetite usually kicks in the late afternoon/early evening, when I have my first and usually only meal.
Same. Every now and then around 10 I’ll go ape on a proper eggs n bacon or sausage type meal, but 6/7 days I don’t eat til like noon -2:00 p
The amount of Americans in the comments who don’t eat breakfast is shocking
As an American who doesn’t eat breakfast, I’m curious why that is shocking to you?
People say breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
I’ve always assumed that was propaganda pushed by big breakfast. /s
Well, seeing as how the origin of the phrase is credited to Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, the founder of the Kellogg’s breakfast cereal company, you’re not really wrong. The guy was pretty unusual, helping to popularize germ theory, which immensely helped the field of medicine, but also pushing eugenics, the movement that in part inspired Nazism. Ultimately, I wouldn’t give much weight to his ranking of meal importance.
Edit: looks like I was wrong - Dr. John Harvey Kellogg invented corn flakes along with his brother, but it was the brother who went on to start selling them, even after John told him not to.
Kellogg was also a religious nutjob.
I see breakfast as part of the time when you’re getting ready for the day. I am not sure what else to respond to why it’s shocking to me, it just is. I am also more likely to skip lunch than breakfast.
I think a lot of Americans simply are too sleep deprived to either have the time or energy to ingest anything other than caffeine in the morning.
My mom would not approve
Food can be expensive, and sometimes you gotta prioritize your money for something else. (Or just eat a bigger lunch)
bagel and cream cheese, with coffee.
I rarely eat breakfast, but if I feel like getting a treat on my morning break at work there’s nothing better than a toasted everything bagel with sliced onion, tomato, and cream cheese… Well, lox could make it better, but I’m not getting a $15 bagel lol
It’s sooooo damn goooood…
We used to have a sandwich shop at my office that would do lox and veggies on a bagel for maybe $6. They also had an avocado bagel for $4. They were replaced by a Starbucks in a different building on campus and it’s not as good and more expensive.
When job hunting, I will genuinely check to see which office has the best bagel shop in walking distance.
Mmm. I’ve been eating better, but I miss my toasted salt & pepper bagels with butter and cream cheese🤤
