What do you eat for breakfast - and where are you from?

[RomanticWalksToTheFridge]

I suffer from inspiration failure over breakfasts so am curious what people eat and what they were brought up with.

My DM had Scottish parents (but did not live there) She ate porridge with butter and salt, or mince and peas on toast.

DF grandparents were Russian and they usually had bread with butter and sausage/ fish

I grew up mainly with toast and butter and a glass of milk.

We have usually toast with jam/ nutella or eggs.Rarely to never cereal and pancakes at the weekend. School days DS very often has a ham sandwich in the car as we have a 40 minute drive to school.

Just curious really as I am thinking of making French toast today and realised I have never ever made it in my life!

Fage 0% fat Greek yoghurt with Lizis low sugar or protein granola.
Or scrambled eggs on toast.
I try to have a relatively high protein breakfast, keeps you going much longer than just carbs.
Kids have cereal or toast, sometimes porridge, sometimes scrambled eggs. Croissants and pain au chocolat are a winner with my eldest who never wants to eat breakfast, we have to gently "force" her to have something before school (she's only 6). Husband likes cereal or beans on toast most mornings.

Porridge with butter is an old fashioned thing. My papa used to have that, he was born in 1891, and a couple of my elderly aunts ate porridge made with water and salt with a bit of butter on top. I think that it was to enrich the porridge and give folk more energy because, let's face it, salt and water porridge is not very appetising or that nutritious, especially if you have a full day of physical work ahead.

I have toast and peanut butter, overnight oats, Porridge with milk and salt, or scones/pancakes and jam.
Kids have cereal, porridge with milk and sugar, overnight oats or toast usually.

Loved in uk most of adult life, but family is from Japan and lived in china growing up, so mixed bag of breakfasts for me special occasions it's a vegetarian fry up, sometimes it's a rice porridge with boiled egg and pickles in. I like rice with egg and natto mixed in. Toast with marmite, spinach and a poached egg on is the staple at the moment Basically anything warm and filling, I can't stand cereal I'm hungry about 2seconds afternoon eating it!

I love salt and water porridge (maybe with a splash of milk added at the end). I genuinely don't like it cooked in milk and adding jam or syrup or other sweet things makes me feel a bit queasy.

From California, living in UK.
Today I had 200g of blueberries and about 100g of porridge oats (with milk), peanut butter, jam.
Another day it might be a bowl of baked beans or leftover take-away curry with leftover veg.
At work breakfast is usually Lots of mixed fruit, savoury soups, chocolate, strong tea.
In a hotel I would go for cheeses, salami, orange juice, scrambled eggs & usual fry up items, maybe some brown toast.

I love something like a veg stir fry up for breakfast.

German, have lived in several European countries and South Africa.

I usually just have a triple espresso or a cup of tea (doing 16:8 most days). If I want a healthy breakfast I tend to go for quark (now there's a cliché!) with berries.

I can't eat sweet things for breakfast otherwise I get low blood sugar. So if I am in the UK, are usually have yogurt and a banana and coffee

When I'm in Vietnam are usually have pho or vegetable noodle soup

Singapore are usually just have bread and butter or porridge with pork, or when I'm in Philippines I will usually have longaniza, or tocino with achara and bread and butter. I love sweets, and if I have a muffin or pastry it has to be after I eat something savory and filling

1992: I was a lodger & new arrival in England. Landlord thought he would amuse himself by freaking me out because he ate a raw carrot for breakfast. He made a song and dance about making sure I noticed. As a Californian, I had no idea why eating raw carrot for breakfast would be considered strange.
