cheesecake (with frozen berries and whipped cream)
I didn’t think it was weird but when I put lox on my bagel one of my coworkers gagged and asked “ugh how can you eat fish for breakfast?”
Which is rich considering her people invented scrapple.
Nah, your coworker’s weird. That shit slaps.

By the 1950s, ‘bagels and lox’ had become an insult—a disparaging term used by Jewish immigrants to describe their counterparts who had become too American.
Hear me out, toasted onion dill rye bread instead of a bagel. Room for more lox, creme cheese so holds together and a better crunch. Also rosemary sourdough bread.
As some one who dœsn’t believe in “breakfast” , list of things I’ve eaten in the morning :
- Potato crisps
- Chow mein nꝏdles
- Hambourghers
- Pizza
- Crackers
- Cup ramen
- Cake
- Popcorn
- Mac cheese
- Maybe some others but don’t remember
- Cake
- Candy
- Chicken wings
- Steak
- Fried chicken
- Pie
- Ice Cream
- Tacos
- Burritos
- Chili
And probably much more over the years. I don’t actually eat breakfast that often to begin with. If I want breakfast food, I’ll eat it whenever I want.
Hambourghers
Cournerstoune ouf any nouutriciouus breakfast.
When I lived in Chicago, mom-and-pop Mexican stores were a stone’s throw from one another, take your pick. Also, they opened early to cater to laborers.
Real Mexican for breakfast? I would kill to have that back.
The Mexican places here make breakfast chilaquiles with yesterday’s leftover chips!
Come back, it’s a great place to live.
Dark chocolate.
One of my exes is a dark chocolate for breakfast person
I just can’t do caffeine late in the day.
Mi goreng ramen with carrot, broccoli, egg, and anchovies. And sometimes other things
Leftover Chinese food warmed up in the microwave
This makes it sound like microwaving it is what makes it unconventional. 😆
Cold Irish stew
Cold Irish stew while shitfaced by the cold but beautiful glow of the fridge light.
Pickled herring. Or soused herring. Or really, any kind of cold fish.
“Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast!”
Rice. I know it’s common in Asian countries but absolutely not where I’m from.
Unless it’s Krispie
My grandma used to eat leftover rice with a little milk and sugar for breakfast. Kinda like oatmeal.
Rice with chili paste and a fried egg, and pork fu is my “Korean grandma” breakfast, but I have done the same with grits and potatoes.
Breakfast is my favorite meal, though I don’t eat it very early, so I’m more likely to eat breakfast stuff for lunch or supper, than the other way around.
But leftover reheated pizza is so good for breakfast.
As an American, this is the most American thing I’ve ever heard.
Y’all hardly have a monopoly on cheesecake
But the unhealthy eating habits are decidedly American.
I just cant bring myself to view ck as unhealthy. Like a lot of it yes but it seems pretty self-limiting otherwise.
At this point, i’m just happy there’s food
I only like sweet breakfast. Cereal, cookies, choc pancakes, cakes etc Not healthy but otherwise I won’t eat breakfast
Oh man you are a visionary.
I can’t believe I never thought it suitable to just eat cheese cake for breakfast. Or any cake for that matter!
Seems obvious now that it’s been said, but never occurred to me prior seeing this. That’s a bit sad honestly, that I’ve become so reserved and “traditional” with my morning meals.
Edit: well just to answer the actual question so as not to waste space in the thread unnecessarily, the one thing I’d consider a bit more unconventional in my habits is just eating boiled eggs with nothing else. A cup of coffee and some 3 eggs, nothing else. I guess it’s not that strange, but I’ve got some funny looks when people are visiting or for example starting dating with someone, and I happen to do this.
Yeah, cheesecake with possibly some kind of frozen berry variety and maybe some whipped cream is fantastic
Not terribly different than like waffles or crêpes or whatever the heck people sometimes have aha
Hamburger Helper, cheeseburger macaroni. When hungover…
