Is there any reason you're supposed to eat "traditional" breakfast foods at breakfast? Why eggs, sausage, and toast?

What's wrong with meat, potatoes, and maybe some fruit? Hell, what's wrong with simply eating your dinner leftovers for breakfast, just in a smaller portion?

I've never understood the English Breakfast because if I ate one I'd feel sluggish and shit for th rest of the day. I need sugary carbs (fruit) and grains in the morning. Breakfast is a great way to some grains into your system because it can be difficult to incorporate grains into a lunch or dinner, imo. Unless you count rice as grains.

Eat want you want m8. If you feel crap after it then eat something else next time. Personally I'd save the dinner left overs for lunch and stick with oats and fruit for breakfast.

Or invite me over for dinner and there won't be any leftovers (no homo).

Eggs, sausage and bacon is not a "traditional" breakfast.
It was presented as such in th 60s by Edward Bernays.

I don't eat breakfast for taste but energy, hence why cornflakes, oats, porridge and the like are eaten then. At dinner I don't need energy so I eat for taste, I'll be hungry but I choose what to eat on taste. Lunch is a balance of the two.

Full English is something I have on weekends because it tastes good not for energy. It goes in the breakfast slot because it's not good enough for dinner but is quick and simple to make.

Traditional breakfast is calorie-dense, meant to be eaten very early in the morning, and meant to provide you enough energy to do physically rigorous morning tasks (so you can burn off the calories).

If you have a job that involves sitting on your ass all day and you're not gonna exercise, then lay off traditional shit and have something light.

I went and looked at the 1896 version of fannie farmer which specifically mentions "breakfast bacon" on page 210.

another version(search for breakfast menus)
https://archive.org/stream/bostoncookingsch00farmrich/bostoncookingsch00farmrich_djvu.txt

and you find:

Bacon and Fried Eggs Baked Potatoes Rye Muffins

Cofee[sic]

there's also a lot of reference to griddle cakes and waffles, along with rolled oats and fruits, a lot of elements of the traditional breakfast we see persisting into the 21st century. probably as meat prices drop in the 20th century you start to see people eating both sausage and bacon and eggs at the same time, but to say that that breakfast isn't traditional at all seems untrue.

glad i clicked on this thread, the autism is high quality.

there's obviously nothing wrong with eating anything for breakfast if it works for you. there is no coherent, clear best nutritional practice for your first meal of the day. people eat meat, potatoes and fruit for breakfast in various parts of the world. there is obviously some merit to the idea that traditional breakfast foods are traditionally eaten for breakfast because they are quick to cook. however, many breakfast foods take plenty of preparation, they just store well or are prepared over the course of the evening with residual heat or whatever.

Odd question since many people claim that breakfast is supposed to be the largest meal of the day. But apart from that, there is absolutely nothing wrong with eating dinner food for breakfast. Actually, I prefer it because I hate fucking candy breakfast like donuts and sugar syrup pancakes/waffles, etc. I don't even eat breakfast food, I just eat lunch twice.

You are a gigantic faggot retard. Dinner food is almost always much more of a meal than breakfast food. The fact that it is just being reheated does not change anything about the components of the meal. And yes, it is a meal. More of a meal than faggoty breadcakes and sugar sauce.

i have no idea why people are being this retarded about that guy's post. leftovers is what you have when you take a meal that may have taken a long or short amount of time to cook out of storage, and you eat it. yes, it takes a short period of time to prepare, but it is clearly not a 'breakfast food' in the sense of something you freshly prepare, quickly, in the morning, it is a stored, pre-prepared meal.

the guy you're responding to is not saying that you can't eat leftovers for breakfast. he is simply saying that the reason traditional breakfast foods are traditional is that they are quick to prepare. this may or may not be right, but how you don't get what he's saying is completely baffling to me. are you a fucking moron?
