I wonder what other cultures eat for breakfast. Here in the US we eat a ton of carbohydrates and sugar for breakfast, with a smattering of fatty, salty meat and eggs, as a general rule.

What do they eat in China? I can't imagine eating rice or noodles for breakfast.

In Hawaii, McDonald's served rice with a lot of their breakfasts. Rice and eggs can go well together.

Cool, I usually have tea and something light like toast (carbs) or eggs. Not much of an appetite in the morning. I feel that boxed cold cereal is a pretty popular choice in the US though and from something I read recently your body doesn't even know how to process it properly lol. It's convenient though so us Americans like it.

Tbh, noodles or rice for breakfast doesn't sound that bad to me. At least they aren't too heavy. I don't even think they would taste bland since your tastebuds would still be fresh.

In Asia food staples are eaten at any time , so rice, noodles or even curry are eaten as often at breakfast as they are at lunch or dinner. When in rural Thailand I tend to breakfast on fried rice topped with a fried egg , fish sauce being the condiment of choice

Most cold cereals sold in the grocery stores here are absolutely overloaded with sugar also.

11g of sugar in a single serving of Frosted Flakes.

My friend and his dad each run a twin Thai restaurant(both owned by his dad) and fish sauce seems to be their condiment of choice as well. Good stuff.

Been had that Sriracha. One can put it on one's eggs too. And toast. And grits.

This morning I had a quick couple pieces of cinnamon toast, but usually I skip breakfast and move all my meals later in the day. Thus Lunch is Breakfast, Dinner is Lunch, and I'll have a small evening snack.
