    Country fried steak is generally the cheapest cut so they have to pound the hell out of it to tenderize or make boots outta it. Plenty of good strong tea available, just not many restaurants serve it.

    What do you usually have for breakfast back home? When I'm on vacation I like to try stuff I don't normally get at home. While home I usually have fried egg whites on an english muffin, oatmeal, waffles topped with apple sauce & cinnamon etc... and lots of black coffee.

    Nothing fancy really maybe a fry or two during the weekend as a treat. The fry would be one black an one white pudding two sausage and two rasher a pot of tea and some soda cake.

    Mug of Tea with a few slices of soda cake as people call it here and an supermarket own brand bowl of cornflakes, the tea and soda fills ye up nicely.

    I think the classic Scottish breakfast is pretty similar to the English/Irish ones (well in reality the classical Scottish breakfast is a bowl of stodgy porridge, but that won't please the tourists).

    Only difference is tons of black pudding. Which I used to love. Don't know why some people find the idea of it so horrible, how is eating blood more horrible than eating flesh if you really think about it?

    Black pudding is lovely if we pretended it was some fancy Italian stuff no one pass a bit of heed I bet. I can still remember my grandmother holding a bowl under the neck of the cow to catch the blood to make some.

    She was a tough lady real old stock as they say.

    We call it bloedworst, bit of a forgotten delicacy here. Whenever I'm in Belgium I stock up.

    I think it is an acquired taste for most who will try it. If you are raised on it you never think anything of it.

    I have tried it but couldn’t finish it. Part of that may have been the expression on my wife’s face while I tried to finish breakfast but that is how it goes sometimes.

    The Chinese think cheese is disgusting but go on to eat things Westerners would find equally unappetizing.

    Sounds good. If you don't me asking, why don't you throw in a multi vitamin & some fish oil? It can only help.

    I'll usually just eat two whole grain waffles with some green tea. Other days I'll get coffee and a whole wheat bagle with cream cheese.

    I went like 4 days without fishoil because I was to lazy to buy some but yea usually I take about 3 caps

    As for the multivitaman meh, there have been some bad studies against them so I pass

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    Rice with all kinds of vegetables in it (peas, leek,...) with pieces of bacon, some chicken and two scrambled eggs on top.

    Was good.

    Realistically, I eat a sliced turkey/ham sandwich, with lettuce and tomato if they're in the fridge, and brown mustard on whoe wheat or oat nut or something along those lines. I learned to eat breakfast like I was eating lunch from working construction, when I woke up before I could possibly put anything in my stomach aside from coffee, and breaktime was too short to eat anything aside from a crappy snack from the vending machine and another shot of coffee to keep going until lunch. Ever since then I haven't been bothered by eating a sandwich first thing in the morning, and honestly the shot of lean meat, bread and vegetables is a nice way to get started.

    Ideally, though, I would be much more extravagant (especially if I wasn't a fat bastard at the moment): one 1/2 pound slice of hamsteak (call me breakfast Judas, but ham is far superior to bacon); three eggs scrambled up with cheese, onions and hot and sweet peppers both; home fries, fried up with a little more onion; and four full-size slices of buttered rye toast.

    Oh, and blood sausage is the greatest sausage I've ever had; I'm mostly just afraid to eat it because I have heart murmors every time I eat it. Honestly, is that stuff as incredibly fatty as it tastes, or is that just the plasma squeezing out or what?

    Blood sausage isn't fat at all but it can soak butter up like a sponge, heart murmur is just your inner beast awakening

    If you think about it there is no fat cos it's blood and some other stuff like grains etc, however people do cook it in oil so it can soak it up a bit, but it is edible cold aswell so that could cut it out if you wanted.

    This morning: Two cups of rocket fuel from my fancy-shmansy espresso maker, and two pieces of multigrain toast with a mix of 1\2 organic peanut butter and 1\2 Skippy.

    Now, this may be the stupid question of the day, but is there any difference at all between oatmeal and porridge?

    Always at 8 o'clock, except for Friday, when it's at 7.

    A soft boiled egg with some bread. Nothing else prevails and unbearable hunger attacks in a few hours whatever else I have.

    A Turkish or mid-sized cup of black coffee. Without it I can't complete the waking up process.

    The first cigarette of the day.
