    Where's the option for when you get up early but still don't eat breakfast, or have coffee? :p

    Usually just some toast. If i'm strapped for time, it's just bread with butter & jam on top, but I try and get some food in at some point before the events of the day begin.

    At least one, sometimes two (at home and then again at the office). I really cannot survive without breakfast. Weekends it's normally scrambled eggs / bacon and waffles or cereal / toast. Weekends is a full English.

    A glass of grapefruit juice is usually my entire breakfast.

    Do you not feel really hungry about an hour later?

    Yes. But I eat a lot for my weight (140lbs, 65kg). If I wanted a breakfast, it'd take some time to prepare; time which I don't have because I need to get up at 5am every day to catch the train to school. Conversely, if ever decide to eat lunch, it's usually a very, very large order of fast food: 3 Burger King sandwiches, two orders of fries, two orders of fountain drinks.

    Depends, if I am working usually, otherwise I'm too lazy to make something and just have lunch later.

    Full English? That's for wusses, nothing beats an Ulster Fry - Bacon, Sausages (pref. pork sausages from the butchers though Denny and Cookstown are acceptable, Shaws or Galtee will also do - under no circumstances use anything called Richmond, they do not deserve to be called sausages), Black Pudding, White Pudding, Fadge (Potato Bread/Cake for you heathens), Soda and a couple of Fried Eggs - none of yer poofy beans, tomato or mushrooms in this cholesterol laden meal of the gods :) All washed down with a proper mug of Tea - Punjana or Nambarrie - needs to be stewed for at least 5 minutes before it's worth drinking.

    That said, my breakfast is usually a mug of coffee and a bowl of porridge :)

    And they're knitted with love :thumb:

    I have a bowl of chips, or croquettes. Sometimes with the ridiculous English excuse for stew. It's fast, which is what I need despite getting up two hours before I have to leave. The first hour is filled with sitting in front of my computer waking up, during which time I may munch a Twix as well :p

    You know that Special K challenge is just a big marketing scam? You're only losing weight because the money in your wallet is all going to Kellogg's!

    I eat a bagel or some toast or something small and quick. In my dream world though, I would eat a breakfast in the style of the southern US. Biscuits and gravy and bacon, greatest breakfast ever!

    I just had to look this up as it sounds like the most outrageous breakfast ever. I was thinking, "Digestives, with Bisto, with bacon?". Thankfully, wikipedia has put me straight:

    The "biscuits" are in fact not biscuits but savoury scones. And the gravy is certainly not Bisto but the drippings of some cooked meat along with flour and milk and mixed with bits of chopped up meat or bacon. It actually looks pretty tasty.

    So what other crazy things do people eat for breakfast?
