I *LOVE* big hearty "breakfast" type meals like steak and eggs and potatoes (w/salsa)...real corn beef hash (not that dog-food shit from a can), Denver omelets (w/ salsa), ham, biscuits and gravy (just plain white for me, no sausage) eggs Benedict, and a huge mess of Southwest style huerveos rancheros w. chirizo....(and ALL w/ slasa - from the Southwest, breakfast isn't breakfast without salsa...damn Midwesteners and New Englanders...) I just don't like that stuff first thing in the *morning*!!! My stomach isn't that awake yet! I get cravings for stuff like that around midnight, or 2am. It's *GREAT* then - but in the early morning when I just woke up, my stomach isn't ready for all that grease. But at like 2am, I get mad cravings for thats tuff. But cold cereal is pretty crappy for breakfast too. I *hate* it. And it (never* satisfies me. (Hot cereal is *okay* with fresh fruit and cream. But not my favorite.) And I never personally could stand grits - maybe I just have never had them done right. They just look and smell nastly to me - especially in theearly AM... When I first wake up, I prefer fresh fruit w/ cream & sugar...some good bread - a croissant or baguette w/ spreadable sweet cheese and some cold sliced meats. Or maybe a fresh-fruit European-style danish. And some coffee and tea. (Like a typical breakfast I remember from Germany.) Some herb-roasted potatoes or fruit crepes are good too. Maybe a fritatta. Yeah, it's "gay", but I like it. But sometimes (a lot of times) I dig up leftover Indian food (or Chinese) so I could dig a Megatron-style breafast too. Sometimes congee (traditiona Asian rice porrage breakfast) is good too. I just don't like greasy food first thing on an empty stomach.
