Class is down to which breakfast you eat

Your status in life is down to which breakfast you eat, not what car you drive or how much you earn

but the type of food you eat for the first meal of the day

white sliced toast with chic spread is working class

sour dough and marmalade is middle class

upper class is soldier and dippy egg

aristocracy is cereal served from a Tupperware 😉

Where does brunch fit in here, is that technically breakfast?
I'm fond of a late morning fry up myself.

TenoringBehind · 30/07/2022 07:42

I have exactly the same breakfast every day: muesli and raspberries with 2 cups of coffee.

Lol what an amusing thread to wake up and read!
Coffee with oat milk and a vape while bombing down the motorway on a weekday.
DD has cereal or croissant during the week and what she calls yellow porridge or French toast with Greek yoghurt and berries at the weekend.

No, it's what kind of salt you put on the slug you find in the kitchen*
Rock salt in a grinder: middle class.
Asda own brand in a plastic bag: working class.
*sorry but I had to tell someone.

Love this!!!!

I had to buy some cheap table salt just for slug killing because dp was using the maldon salt on the little fuckers😱

I used to love Lily Savage’s ‘English breakfast’ - a pot of tea and ten ciggies.😂

I made a weird porridge yesterday morning with added fibre powder and protein powder. Dunno what that makes me. It was very gloopy 😂

I work with someone who goes to a posh bakery each morning for breakfast on way in. We jokingly got her a multi pack of cereal and a plastic bowl and spoon for her office.

Whereas the aristocracy have kitchen slugs served up to them at breakfast as devilled kidneys because they are notoriously frugal.

what if you go fasting to Mass each morning and therefore breakfast is the body and blood of Christ?

I think you go straight to Heaven.
Even if you murder someone or use apostrophes in the wrong place.

Currently been having Pikelets and butter (working class Eat Midlands fare)

Though I have to buy them from Waitrose or M&S now not the man with a cart in the Guildhall like my Mum did

As an aside...yesterday I saw the guys at work toasting Pikelets as were trying something different as they had never tried them. One went off with dry Pikelets, and I suggested to next that butter was a ideal accompaniment...though he tried spreading it on the wrong side.

I mean thats what the holes are for...to soak up the butter right ? 😁

Hankunamatata · 30/07/2022 11:01

Kids - porridge (obviously paupers)
Me - Greek yogurt and berries (upper class)
🤣🤣🤣🤣
