Reasons Why American Breakfasts Are the Way They Are

- Weird History Food is serving you some breakfast. When you think of American breakfast food, what comes to mind? For many, it's likely things like cereal and milk, toast, eggs, and coffee. On weekends, there might be more elaborate dishes like French toast or pancakes accompanied by a tall glass of orange juice. When we step foot in a diner, we know what the menu will look like - to the point we might even tell the host we don't need to see one. But what is less known is how American breakfast food came to be.

I grew up on the farm. Our breakfast usually consisted of bacon, ham, sausage, or occasionally steak, eggs fried, boiled, or poached, toast, and cereal (hot oat, corn, or buckwheat porridge in the winter & cold cereal in the summer), all washed down with perked coffee. Of course, we'd already put in a couple of hours of work by the time we ate it.
That isn't too bad especially considering all the work you did. But your type of breakfast is now shrieked about as "backward" and "primitive" and extremely unhealthy. It's supposed to be just about pure sugar and carbs except maybe some milk to be "healthy" lol.
@@alexcarter8807 don’t forget to cook your breakfast with highly processed seed oil I mean , “vegetable” oil makes it sounds healthier. Avoid those dangerous natural animal fats.
Yeah that kind of breakfast is okay if you legit work on a farm toiling and basically doing 2 workouts worth of physical labor prior to it. However, for the average Joe and Jane, hell naw.
So basically Cured Meat, Eggs, Bread, Butter, Grains Cereal in Milk and Coffee.
Sounds legitimate and delicious.
@@alexcarter8807 what's wrong with eggs (being a staple protein) or boiled oats (being a long carb keeping you not hungry and warm for 5 hrs straight)?
Throw a cup of berries (frozen or jam in winter) in my oats and some veggies to my eggs and I'll take it any day.
For me not working as hard it's either eggs or porridge...
A lot of people overlook the fact that Captain Crunch has three stripes on his shoulder, making him a Commander.
He already demands that they call him captain. He didn't want to... MILK it.
That sounds trustworthy and therefore healthy
Don't you mean 'Cap'n Crunch'? 😏
Just watched a video where they talk about the Mandela effect, captain crunch cereal was an example they used; most people "remember" it being spelled 'captain' when in fact it never was... Kinda creepy
@@shaneforshort that's admiral crunch to you!
@@incredibleflameboy that’s not for a thousand years. Well if Futurama is to be believed anyway
Oatmeal with banana, peanut butter, and cinnamon is fire. It's a good meal to fuel my morning workout
Lentils are actually a really good addition to that
@@juliemclain5841 It's been a while since I've had lentils, but that doesn't seem like something I'd typically eat with peanut butter and bananas
That sounds great. To mix it up I might replace the cinnamon with blueberries. Oatmeal with banana, peanut butter and blueberries sounds good as well.👍
😅 No, your breakfast is sweet carbs ; no has proteins and good fats or fiber. After eating banana oatmeal you ‘re definitely going to eat something else.
My mom still makes old-fashioned doughnuts from a recipe passed down for generations. Most people think of doughnuts as basically being a mini-cake with frosting or glaze, which make the old fashioned ones look boring. But a warm, homemade old fashioned doughnut is amazing! Warm, soft, subtly sweet, and can be sweetened with powdered sugar. It's sort of like fried dough at the fair.
They are more delicious than "normal" Donuts for me! Called "pyshka" in Saint Petersburg, and is it's famous treat, but of course it's pretty common in different places of the world :)
Lies again? Grab Food USD SGD
Beignets are delicious as well

Note that Texas was briefly a French colony in the late 17th century. So for a brief window of time, Texas Toast was also technically French toast.
damn
That fine usa education is showing, not in a good way.
And for a time Texas was a part of Mexico but that's another story.
Wut in tarnation?!?
Righttttttt
Please do a follow-up on the different/unique breakfasts that are served around the world and how they came to be. Like why biscuits and gravy along with a bowl of grits make up a Southern breakfast while an English breakfast has baked beans, mushrooms, and tomato as part of the meal.
Yes, an explanation of "The Full English Breakfast" would be appreciated.
Yea
It's kind of traditional and not. Traditionally breakfast was for the rich and was pretty much the same meal as you would eat at any time because you would go hunting after. As time went on it became normal for everyone to eat some form of breakfast so cheaper ingredients were used to keep the heritage of breakfast alive. As time went on that became the norm for poorer people too and ingredients like baked beans became widely available. Similar to American breakfasts, most "full English breakfasts" aren't standardized outside of pubs and there are regional variants.
I mean paprika is just pepper, salt and something else
Scottish and Irish cooked breakfasts are better. I'm probably biased as I associate a Full Scottish with a trip to the Hebrides on a CalMac ferry.😊
"But what about SECOND breakfast?"
-Pippin, getting hungry again.
I fondly refer to it as “inbetweensies”
Are you in cahoots with my cat? He totally believes in 2nd breakfast. But then again 2nd everything else. Vet said to cut it out. He's becoming a chonky floof.
"I don't think He knows about second Breakfast"...
@KittynFranky7643 Sounds like my cat! At 4 in the morning I would give him dry cat food. Then he goes out for a few hours. Then at around 8 o' clock he comes back in and I give him canned food.
Brunch.
I think I remember learning that Dr Kellogg had taught that cold cereal helped to inhibit the libido and would help youngsters to focus on their studies at school.
He was a very weird dude.
John Harvey Kellogg was totally one of those moralizing types who probably secretly had some really, REALLY weird kinks in his actual sex life.
I'll say!
It's never a good thing when adults are interested in children's functions like that...Kinsey and Money come to mind.....🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
@@marycleary-qe5ou Yes, he had a lot of odd beliefs that now have been debunked.
Pancakes, waffles, French toast, biscuits and gravy aren’t what we eat every day. At least in my family, those were saved for rare-ish occasions when we had an excuse to make a nice family brunch. Usually on Sundays.
I can see French toast and biscuits and gravy, but pancakes and waffles are quick and easy to make. All you gotta do now is pour the batter in the machine and it's done in just a couple of minutes. They even make premade, frozen waffles and pancakes that you can just pop in a toaster or microwave. Why is it only a special occasion thing?
@@queenmoreau2098 It’d be special because my mom would make the batter from scratch, and we’d serve it with all the fixing. Sausage/bacon, eggs, hash browns… it was such a luxurious meal. Have you ever made pancakes from scratch with buttermilk? If you haven’t, my friend, I would recommend it. Also, buttermilk waffles. You can’t even compare Eggos to the real thing.
Right, all of these things take a while to make. It's easier to get these things at diner.
Sometimes on a Sunday, my mom would fix biscuits and gravy. And on a rare occasion she would cook an omelet to go with it. The rest of the time everyone makes their own breakfast. Whether it be oatmeal, pancakes, or breakfast sandwiches.
I was in India a few years ago and traveling with a friend. He is a citizen of India, and I'm American from North Dakota. I just had to laugh when I noticed what he was eating for breakfast one morning from our hotel breakfast buffet: orange juice, toast, and a bowlful of Corn Flakes with milk. I had Chai tea, sambar (a vegetable stew), idli (a cake thing made from rice), and fresh fruit. He was eating the typical American breakfast, I was eating the typical Indian breakfast : )
Did you eat any hamburgers over there
@@JohnWick-vb9pc No, because I'm vegetarian, as is my friend from India.
@@JohnWick-vb9pc In Hinduism,the cow is a sacred animal, so even if you are not a veggie, it is highly unlikely that you would eat a beefburger. Chicken is far more common.
@@matryoshkadoll As explained to me by my beef-eating Indian friends, cows aren't sacred in a strictly religious sense - it's that slaughtering one just for meat is considered "idiotic" given it's milk can support half a village for many years.
@@matryoshkadoll Thats unfortunately not the case. While the female cow is being said to be holy in the vedas most people in india just dont eat cow but they dont treat them as goddes. You can See starving or dying cows and noone gives a damn. Especially when they dont produce milk they get abandoned.
People tend to view the classic English breakfast as a bit much but the whole point is it's either something you eat after a heavy hangover OR a treat
Yup. When I think special treat, I think of beans and sausage
The thing is that back then there were no lunches like in today for regular folks so that breakfast fitted well and provided enough energy for the people until dinner
Makes sense.
Or if you are not going to eat during the day.
@@BB-xx3dv sure if you cut down on lunch to keep within the calorie limit for your sedentary ass or you become fat
Breakfast is the easiest meal to skip calories on if you aren't a physical labourer
I'm Polish - yes Bagels are originally called "Obwarzanki" - from Kraków and mounthains areas. They're great so worth trying it while visiting Kraków :)
You might call them "the pride of Krakow."
I hate bagels and schmeer.
SAY THEIR NAME!
Poland has the best donuts as well IMO❤
@@bartoszjanprzybyszewski1891 jchews 🤮
Love this guy's voice. It's so soothing to listen to
0.o
It’s a great voice makes it more interesting
It sounds like History Channel documentary show from back when History wasn't a steaming garbage heap.
It feels a little bit like I'm in a class taught by Rainn Wilson. I'm so down to learn from Dwight
He is by far the best narrator. I kinda got worried when I saw that other narrators were being tried out. If if ain’t broken don’t fix it 😂
In olde England it was in style to have a large, hearty breakfast, regardless of what kind of labor you were likely to undertake. This was in stark contrast to the 'continental' countries that preferred to have a small pastry or fruit instead of a heavier meal. This is also where we get the term 'Continental breakfast' which is where I'd wager we also get 'French Toast'.
'Continental breakfast' = carb and or sugar bomb. like eating a snickers bar for breakfast. yes we need more of that. The SAD is massive in carbs. Thats why so much type 2.
Ye old angland
Even though I am Indian, I was always fascinated with American Breakfast, I liked this small history lesson on American Breakfast.
In Spain we call the french toast "torrija"
As historically mentioned it's to not waste food and give some sweet use to stale bread
All the food in the States tastes so sweet - even the bacon and toast.
Got to keep those 50% + obesity rates going.
Yep... and unless you've lived in other countries or traveled extensively, we don't notice how sweet the food is in the US-- bread, ketchup, salad dressing, everything : (
Gotta keep up the corn syrup suppliers
The sugar industry is subsidized by us tax dollars.
Yes, they put sugar in bacon. I’ve started reading all of my labels and get the no sugar added bacon.
You missed a crucial one that I have been craving all day, biscuits and gravy. Maybe with some scrambled eggs and grits on the side
I think this video was supposed to focus on the fast breakfast.....which is confusing, because he added french toast
Oh man there’s nothing like real good biscuits and gravy
Please! No one is stupid enough to eat a biscuit and gravy!
Thank you. Now I'm hungry. 😉
Yes they do need to do biscuits and gravy
Another Weird History Food Sunday! Just watched this video while having pancakes for breakfast lol. Would love to see more videos about breakfast
In Germany we call French toast Armer Ritter - that means poor knight in English and it is made when you have some harder bread you have to eat to not waste the food
Lesson of the video: if you want to make something popular in the US, make it as industrialized and mass produced as you can
I had breakfast for dinner last night.
I seriously laughed when he described cereal as a "lighter, healthier breakfast". In my area, most stores have cereal located in the same aisle as candy bars and with good reason: Cocoa Puffs, Honey Comb, Fruity/Cocoa Pebbles, etc, etc all have so much sugar that they rival those very candy bars. And that's to say nothing of cereals like Lucky Charms that have literal candies (marshmallows) in them, or Cookie Crisp, Oreo O's, and Reeses Puffs that are literally just cookies and candy in cereal form. In the five years I lived in Japan, I rarely saw any cereals, but in the few times I did, I noticed that they were not being promoted as breakfast foods but as quick after-school snacks - and to me, that makes a heck of a lot more sense than how companies in the United States market them as the first meal you eat in a day to give your body the energy it needs to get going.
Well, as you know cereal in it's original form was not the same as it is today. I mean oatmeal is a warm cereal.
@@cajunlinks Yes, I know that the original form of cereal was very different than cereal is now. But what made it so funny to me is that he's describing "a lighter, healthier breakfast" while showing stock footage of milk being poured over a bowl of what looks like Frosted Flakes - a relatively modern sugar-coated cereal first made in the 1950s.
@@jmaeshawn well stop watching princess
Light entails more quickly digesting, which is characteristic of sugar and refined carbohydrate vs. fat and protein in eggs and bacon. Fat is also more than twice as calorically dense (4 cal /gram vs 9 cal /gram) so lighter is an accurate description for similar portion sizes
@@ald5193 You make a good point, but I suppose it all depends on one's perception of "light". In my mind, when something can be digested more quickly, it just leaves you feeling hungry again sooner (and therefore making you eat more later) than if you had eaten something that kept you feeling full for longer. But either way, it's quite a stretch to think of the empty calories of sugar and refined carbs in cereal as being "healthier".
A+ video!
Really clarifies the history of those breakfast foods in a way that is easy to understand.
I love vintage sounding documentaries like these. Charming and nostalgic voice over
History knowledge is power
It was actually doctor Kellogg's brother who marketed the cereal we know today after buying the recipe from his brother and making some tweaks. Dr. Kellogs' cereal was sugar-free and focused on health.
It did not focus on health lmaoooo
@@RAJOHN-ke7mc Dr. Kellogg's did. Not his brother's sugar fulled mass market version.
When did the idea of restaurants.... (dining out) come into being? Btw I love the weird channels. They remind me of some of my history classes in my youth when learning was fun & being educated meant something.
Oh that’d be cool cause the first recorded restaurant in America was started in 1673 and still stands today. It’s called the White House tavern.
History class was a crapshoot when I was a kid...if you got a teacher who was a great storyteller and brought history to life in lectures, it was great. But my World History (meaning "history of white people 1492-1945" stock-standard European history) class was taught by a guy who could put an overcaffeinated student to sleep.
So full disclosure I am a history enthusiast and not a professional historian, but I can remember reading about Roman cities often having what we would call delicatessens where you would buffet-style pick out food and pay to eat. Some of these shops (whose latin names I forget) started providing seating areas to attract more customers. Although I'm sure it wasn't the Romans who "invented" eating out.
I would ADORE a video on the history of restaurants.
@@NakedOwl501 yea Roman’s are often the earliest recorded evidence of many societal trends especially in Europe. As well there are records of food stands in rome where people were able to grab food on the go. I guess an ancient fast food of sorts. And what they served was chopped up spiced meat in bread. Which sounds awfully similar to a modern day hamburger
it's been around for a long time. In parts of Ancient Rome and earlier Ancient Greece most people didnt have ovens and sometimes didnt even have much or any ability to cook since they lacked kitchens so they'd eat out frquently from stores that would soups or portable meals that people would eat in the street or stand by the counter they ordered from. That's also a major reason for pastries of all kinds, many started out as mobile meals and since for much of history bread was regulated you'd know ahead of time what you'd be getting for your money when it came to most pastries as well.
(1:15) British tea culture help cut the mortality rates caused by unsanitary water in the 18th century - boiling the water helped purify it. So the health benefits of drinking tea during this time weren’t purported, they were/are factual.
I never really ate cereal growing up and I have no desire for it now. My dad would make my brother, sisters and I a real breakfast. Eggs, bacon, sausage, grits, pancakes, waffles, french toast, ham, steak and hash browns were what I grew up accustomed to eating for breakfast.
I wasn't ever allowed to drink coffee until I was an adult, because my father believed that coffee would stunt our growth. So we'd have a glass of milk and a glass of orange juice every morning with breakfast.
Despite having eaten most of the foods mentioned here back in my country, it was something occasional. Like one or two times at week.
This kind of breakfasts are good if you're a very physically active person. Otherwise, it is not recommended or at least reduce the portions.
Thank God I ditched sugared cereals decades ago.
My mother told me that when she was a kid (in the 50's) they used to soak Grape Nuts and Muesli in milk overnight, to soften it, so they could eat it in the morning.
I always enjoy these vids. Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes cereal was introduced in the 1950s, and Cap’n Crunch and Froot Loops were introduced in 1963-long after the 1930s. 🤓
I grew up usually eating grits with eggs and bacon or sausage for breakfast. . Sometimes we'd have pancakes or Cream of Wheat instead of the grits. Now I usually just have Oatmeal.
Earl Grey Tea with a splash of milk = THE BOMB
@D Adams Do you have a favorite brand of Earl Grey tea?
@D Adams I might have to try Stash, I am not sure if I have had that brand before.
@D Adams I will check that out too, I don't think I have ever see that one before.
@D Adams I just tried Stash Earl Grey, it is amazing!
I'm from a Commonwealth nation, Australia & we are big coffee drinkers & less tea drinkers. In my country tea & coffee are known as 'cuppa's' like cup of tea or cup of coffee just shortened as us are gold medalists when in comes to our slang or "Strayan" is what we call our own version of the English language. Also we are known to have the best coffee in the world & we don't have Starbucks or really any chain, instead it's all small cafes which are small business owners. We would rather get our cuppa's from the locals as it's more personal & more friendly, aswell as supporting small business owners in our local area. Starbucks failed miserably down here in Straya as the hustle & bustle of the American style way of life just didn't work
There's chains of awful over priced coffee everywhere dude
I watched this video where the guy said that we eat dessert for breakfast in 'Murica (cereal, pancakes w syrup, donuts, juice, yogurt, toast w jam, etc). No wonder 3/4 of us are overweight or obese. Any kind of sugar-sweetened drink is basically liquid candy.
It was "Why Americans Eat Dessert for Breakfast" by Johnny Harris, wasn't it?
@@eivind-falk Yep.
Johnny Harris, whutt a nut. Breakfast for dinner can be delicious.
Exactly
People have been eating this way for decades. The issue is the serving sizes
For me something of a proper American breakfast would be quite different from the perceived norm, and yet not that unusual.
Scrambled eggs with some sauteed mushrooms, perhaps a bit of fresh farmer's cheese, or one of goat milk.
A lean protein salad with light or semi-light dressing, perhaps with chicken or bread croutons.
Two or three pancakes with a slice of two of bacon crumbled.
In that order.
A heavy breakfast is best way to start a day. The further you move down the day the lighter your meals should get, that's what I think is best to maintain a good diet routine.
I used to think that.
Now, I often leave breakfast til noon. That and low to zero carbs has helped me lose 60 lb
I just had cornbread and coffee for breakfast, because why not?
Leftover cake and coffee for breakfast this a.m. 😊
The history of poutine or the history of donaires in canada.
Or
the history of craft becoming so iconic in Canada. That craft dinner which is macaroni and cheese, and in Canada it is one of canadas national dishes
I'm still jealous when I see the variety of flavors of Kraft dinners available in Canada.
No it isn't 😂
Pouting for poutine!
The history of poutine is very nebulous. Lots of places claim inventing it
Kraft in Canada is sooooo much tastier than the American version which contains cheaper ingredients.
I'm obsessed with paprika, I can't even imagine how bland food was before it. I'd love to see you do the history of paprika (have Shantel's "Planet Paprika" playing in my head at the thought of it!)
Then you will love shopping potato chips in germany. Every potato chip brand first releases is paprika and it will be the first flavour that will be in the shelf. It even pushes salted chips away with ease.
Yeah it was bland before 😂
Smoked paprika!! Mmmmm
@@gracekim25 bruh
You do know paprika wasn't the first seasoning right?
Wonderful video as always. I need tea AND coffee to keep me going throughout the day!
The Stamp Act of 1765 was a tax on papers, documents, etc. The Tea Act of 1773 led to the Boston Tea Party.
Captain Crunch was introduced in 1963...in fact I was 9 at the time and we recieved a fun size sample box in the mail which I promptly ate before anyone else saw it!
These videos are fascinating. Keep up the good work.
I think it’s funny that the toaster was invented before sliced bread.
If you think that's funny, how about this: Canned goods were introduced long before a can opener. I wish I was kidding.
I believe the screwdriver was originally just a pry bar.
@@theamanuensis it's a skill to come up with a reply that paints you as this unlikeable
Our family had toast and tea for breakfast when I was a kid, so that's what I have, along with cereal (which I ate as a kid and still do, nearing my middle-ages, I vary with different kinds from the less nutrious cereal for kids to müsli and wheat puffs). It might sound british but I have marmelade (not always orange but sometimes, I like to have strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, gooseberry, fig etc. as well) and chesse. I just have pancakes or waffles and fruits when I stay at hotels or when going on cruises, otherwise it will be the standard breakfast as mentioned before.
That was so fascinating! I kept waiting for you to talk about why we eat eggs for breakfast and sausage and things like that as well. But a lot of this was very interesting, since I'm a type 1 diabetic a lot of this food I tend to avoid for breakfast as it is full of carbs and sugar and my breakfast tends to be fruit, cheese, nuts and almond milk not exactly the traditional breakfast lol but I remember in the old days having some of these items. Thank you for this awesome video!
I'm T1D myself and most times my breakfast is beans and brown rice with eggs. It's low sugar and high protein since I keep an active lifestyle to combat my A1C
your voice sounds so much like how people would present things in the old days, it just needs lower fidelity and it would pass perfectly
The same reason we produce so much corn that we crush it and use it as kitty litter, and that being overweight is a more serious problem for our poor than starvation: Government subsidies to farmers to provide cheap calories, so the army always has a supply of giant soldiers.
Actually, the Italians brought coffee to America & Australia, due to immigration
I have to get up at 4:30 am and my breakfast normally consists of;
Tea
Toast with marmite
Toast with marmalade.
If I beat the alarm, I'll have a cooked breakfast, some type of hens eggs on toast with back bacon and fried tomatoes.
9:00 Interestingly, my mom _always_ bought the little cans of "frozen juice concentrate."
I'd forgotten about those until you just reminded me.
There was also frozen lemonade, which she bought a lot of in the summer.
Man I loved those - esp. the lemonade. I could "eat" it straight. Probably where all my enamel went... 🙂
Oatmeal, yogurt, an apple and a spoonful of peanut butter. Keeps my cholesterol in check.
Bacon, eggs and fried black pudding (no bread/toast) fixed my cholesterol
I enjoy this content. This topic was interesting and I like your style of narration too. Very funny and engaging. Looking forward to more
And here is me, on the other side of the world, eating chicken liver with onion and couscous for breakfast 😅 I bet many Americans would shiver seeing that
No, we wouldn’t
This channel is great. Love the dry humor. 🤗
Interesting! As a kid we would always just have bread with cheese, or meat. Not super varied but at least not loaded with tons of sugar. Now I either make a savory oatmeal with beans, vegetables like broccoli or cauliflower, and sometimes an egg, or (my quick work day breakfast) yoghurt with fruit, nuts, seeds, and berries. Definitely keeps me going until lunch.
Burritos for breakfast, coffee or whatever is still on the shelf at Tim Hortons for lunch when you work 8p.m. to 9 a.m.
The strange thing is that the bagels have Polish origin, but... they are rather forgotten in Poland.
Today they are reintroduced byt the western (mainly American) companies like Starbucks.
But historically bagels should be Polish national type of bakery... 😅
Because bagels have mostly Ashkenazi Jewish roots. There are little to almost no Ashkenazi Jews left in Poland now.
What exactly is wrong with oatmeal, maypo oats, cream of rice, cream of wheat, farina, ralston, and corn meal mush???
I think what made people move away from it was their blandness in flavor. At least compared to what attracts us today.
As Italians in America breakfast wasn't a big deal. We mostly had toast and coffee (or hot chocolate for the kids). My Nonni ate Cheerios with hot Postum over it occasionally.
My mom is Italian. Her breakfasts growing up consisted of cereal and a grapefruit with sugar on it.
I have never heard of Postum. Can you please tell me what it is? Thank you in advance.
Something more common would be 'Pero'. It's a grain based powder mixed with hot water for a coffee-like beverage. It's usually toasted barley.@@susansparke3462
I LOVE SOUTHERN AMERICAN BREAKFAST ITS SOOOOO GOOD, I dont like cereal or sodas but I can’t say no to a biscuit with gravy some hash browns with bacon a good cup of coffee
And a tuna ball sprinkled with nutmeg. LAWD HAVE TUNA !!!
Love these videos. How about a v.idea on different country’s breakfasts. Thanks!
Peanut butter toast & orange juice is the perfect breakfast!
double weird history drop? we're blessed today
Be really cool if there would be a weird history food about the history of Poutine!
Love this channel. The narrator is funny AF! Love history too.
Here in the UK, pretty much anything with bacon or pancakes in place of baked beans is considered “American” breakfast 😂
French fries aren’t from France!!!!! They are Belgian- the American soldiers first exposed to them were confused where they were and heard people speaking French so got confused.
I just now realized how similar the original "donuts", Olykoeks, resembles a recipe we have at Brazil that might be our own donut, we call it Bolinho de Chuva (Rain Buns), because of the shape that resembles a drop of water
EDIT: We also have another kind of "donut" called sonho (dream), based on a recipe brought from Portugal, in the end, sonho, donuts and Bolas de Berlin were all an adaptation of the original Berliner.
Tea still is my caffeine of choice for breakfast!
I have cooked toast in a frame like that before, especially while out camping or just when someone has an open fire. We even used to do toasted sandwiches filled with cheese and ham or baked beans or whatever on the campfire using a thing called a jaffle iron.
Nothing beats an ulster fry breakfast . Which is different to a Scottish fry or an English fry or even an Irish or Welsh fry.
All different all amazing.
Oh can't beat a nice crumplet.
Today's breakfast consisted of a pork chop, 2 eggs and oatmeal, with coffee. Dang, quite tasty. And filling... I'll be good till dinner.
@@wiseacres-rb4wt I used to do that... but I quit smoking 2 years ago. Sometimes I miss having a smoke with my coffee. But I'll never go back.
I couldn't live on that little of calories for breakfast. I try to get about 5-6k calories per day in food alone (nevermind the sugary drinks I have).
I’m kinda a coffee enthusiast, kinda glad coffee is our morning beverage 😊

Never heard of Force cereal before thanks for that piece of history I never knew I needed to know about
Watching this while drinking my second cup of coffee in the morning lol
Fun fact The term "french kissing" was made by British and American soldiers returning home cause it was no odd thing for the Women of France to kiss soldiers and upon arrival home they would say "While in France get the girls to kiss you" which then changed to the term "French Kissing" "French Fries" or just "Fries" actually originate from Belgium and the "French Braid" where greeks and romans are credited for the creation of "the french braid" and actually dates back 6000 years ago to rock paintings around the Tassili Mountain Range in Algeria
BREAKFAST PIZZA! Have fun with this guys! :)
Better than doughnut or sugary cereal.
Especially leftover pizza and coffee😊
This was very interesting and cool!
Honestly, I don't think most Americans eat breakfast. Coffee for sure, but usually not food. Maybe a banana, toast, muffin etc, but I don't think most people cook a meal for breakfast. It's usually just something quick you grab because you're in a hurry to get to work or whatever you're doing in the morning. I can't remember the last time my breakfast consisted of anything except for coffee. I'm typically not hungry when I first wake up.
The Start of My Day begins with iced coffee with whip cream and a stop at Jack in the Box for two tacos and crispy onion rings 🐖

So Hi
Fascinating! Thank you for posting that. I really like the idea of Corny The Rooster!
A lot of those are really cool.
My typical breakfast is coffee, Lego cereal, and either a bean/rice burrito or a corn dog. Gotta love that protein.
My favorite American breakfast includes eggs. I love an omelet or scrambled eggs!
There's a starbucks on our aircraft carriers too. (Seriously, there is!)
Man, a good day when I see the upload notification
Love this
Ironically, I'm sitting here watching this while eating a rice bowl for breakfast LOL
I adore American breakfasts! One of favorite genres (😂) of food.
It’s exciting to know the history of American breakfast. They have changed along with American culture, politics, and technology. I like bagels and granola.
Sunny Jim made me think immediately of Sonny Jim in “Twin Peaks: The Return.” Given how often Dale Cooper raved about “a damn fine cup of coffee,” it’s not a stretch for me to imagine David Lynch naming a character after an obscure early 20th century breakfast-food character.
Sunny Jim made me think of that scene in A Hard Day's Night where this guy addressed George Harrison as Sunny Jim.
what a great theory! it would not surprise me at all🦉
Toast with staples in it. Yum yum!
Missing some iron in your diet, or do you just have pica?
uh.... that's not safe dude

@@SimuLord pronounced differently, but I like where you're going with this!
I think it all rocks!!! Good stuff for all the kids of America. 🤓
Funnily enough most people I know don't consume traditional breakfast foods. They usually just drink coffee or eat something like a protein bar or hot pocket. Whatever they can eat before work let alone stomach as they barely got any sleep before going to work more hours to barely keep a roof over their heads. AMERICA!
I mean, if you're overweight - as most Americans are, that's all you really need? The only people who are going to be negatively affected by skipping breakfast are those who typically go to bed without a "full load" of blood glucose.
Food makes me tired, I don't start the day that way. Son loving breakfast sandwiches I make now. Whatever kind of toasted bun on hand, whatever kind of meat on hand, egg and whatever cheese is in the fridge. Can't be picky and choosey these days but oh so good
Same! Woke up with lots of energy than after some bagels I’m super tired again. Lucky it’s Sunday. Back to bed for me 🤣

Then you likely have digestive issues / reactive hypoglycemia
A helpful hint: You can eat Frozen Orange Juice from Concentrate. It's a great quick Breakfast or Snack. Just take it out of the Freezer, let it thaw a bit, open it up and munch away.
