Brown bread with Scrambles eggs and one spoonful of beans (don't like them but I make an exception for scrambled egg - yes I am a food weirdo) and some mushrooms......

Washed down with a HUGE glass of fresh orange with bits and a cup of tea milk, no sugar.

Sausage and cheese bap with brown sauce

A glass of water... or fresh cocktail of orange/melon/passion fruit juice on most mornings

But if I can make the time:
Pancake made with grated apple or pineapple + juice cocktail
Onion rings and tomato fried in a little egg + juice cocktail
Or simply, a bowl of fruit salad + yoghurt

marmite on toast

Vegemite on toast or eggs benedict with freshly squeezed oj.

Soft boiled eggs with soldiers and huge amounts of real butter.

The best ones I ever had were at the hotel on the morning after our wedding. Mmm. Sometimes I can still taste them!

My perfect breakfast would consist of several courses :

Starter
Bowl of fresh fruit salad

Main
Grilled unsmoked bacon, fried eggs, fried button mushrooms and potato scones

Desert
Silver dollar pancakes with maple syrup and whipped cream

Served with
Orange juice
White toast & marmalade
Earl Grey tea

Scrambled eggs, baked beans, tomatoes, toast, bacon and sausages. Bit like a traditional English breakfast, but I very rarely have it, as my breakfasts are occupied by toast with sliced chicken and butter and on weekends, Crunchy Nut cereal.

3 eggs scrambled with butter and cream, 3 rashers of bacon well grilled and crispy, coffee with coconut oil and double cream. Generally keeps me full until teatime.

I had a road trip holiday in the States last summer, and the breakfasts were almost the most enjoyable meals. We used to get up really early, get on the road for a couple of hours, and then stop at little diners for breakfast. I loved it - pancakes, Canadian bacon, maple syrup, corn dogs, fruit buffets, jugs of coffee.... it was great. I could never eat like that every day (and I definitely wouldn't want to) but at the time it was just perfect.

Normally I just have tea, and if I'm lucky, some toast. At weekends, sometimes eggy bread, or scrambled eggs, or maybe pancakes (the thin, English kind, I still can't work out how to cook American ones properly), but not first thing. I find I can never eat much until I've been up and about at least a couple of hours.

What are corn dogs, Elanor? I've always wanted to know but never bothered to find out.

Corn Dogs
Bit weird that you didn't just google it yourself

Oooh, they were nice. They were sort of... a bit like potato croquettes but not made of potato. Sort of deep fried batter things, in a sort of stick shape. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy inside. With maple syrup. Sorry, that's not very precise, but I had them twice as part of a buffet breakfast (the BEST one ever - $3 for all you can eat in Keystone, South Dakota) and they were niiiiice.

Oh, that's weird. The ones I had definitely didn't have meat. They were just batter. They were also definitely called corn dogs, and I had them in two different places. Oh well, maybe it's a regional difference.

True, but then if we all googled for the information we needed, there wouldn't be much of a Food forum left! And it turns out Wikipedia doesn't tell the whole story anyway.

Thanks, both!

The weirdest breakfast I had in the States was "biscuits and gravy" - we were in Wisconsin. IT WAS VILE. Well, not vile as such, just really really weird.

I've heard about that. Sounds revolting. Are these actual *biscuits* in actual *gravy* or are they words for some American variation?

Corn Dogs without meat, in the US?

Very Strange!


Biscuits are pretty much savoury scones. If you can be bothered look for a show called Good Eats on the net. It's really good for learning about food especially yank favourites.
