Haven't been able to eat in the morning since about 15. Don't know why but early eating nauseates me. Can't seem to eat unless I've been up at least 5-6 hours.

I'd have to have a standing appointment with the cardiologist if I ate that everyday.

I first thought this was going to be about the John Hughs movie- which wasn't that great. "Sixteen Candles" was better (the uncensored version- the language really isn't that bad).

Anyways, my usual breakfast is a bowl of Quaker oatmeal (two packs of instant) or raisin bran, a banana, and a PBJ (natural peanut butter- not Skippy or Jif) on whole grain bread. Maybe some OJ too. I need my fuel to get the day started. Don't drink coffee, tea, or sodas.

PiPhiAngel · 02-23-2008, 11:19 PM

Plain oatmeal with organic soymilk.
1/2 a glass of OJ.

oblongmelon · 02-24-2008, 07:56 AM

It's that time again..BREAKFAST TIME..yum yum..
I wait all night long to eat breakfast and I love it!
Today:
Sunny and cold
Breakfast:
Steal Cut Oats (1 cup cooked) with brown sugar splenda and tons of cinnamon)
Pacific Rose Apple (that I shared with my pups!)
2 oz. of leftover roast chicken
16 oz of hot water with honey and apple cider vinegar.

(and for the Brother's usual Sunday Breakfast at my house, I cooked fried eggs and peppers, homemade bread (for toast-breadmakers are a good thing!)
stewed apricot and prune medley (served HOT), and some Italian sausage (which I roasted instead of fried)..and of course, 3 pots of extra strong black coffee with a bit of sambuca thrown in at the table)..the Brothers brought flowers for the table and hearty appetites..and we had a great time at 8:30 am this morning!

molecularfire · 02-24-2008, 11:27 AM

A can of diet pepsi and a prilosec (no prozac for today.

)

I actually have about three eggs per week. But breakfast is usually a couple of slices of toast or English muffin with strawberry jelly and a couple of cups of Bromley tea.

But I do love scrapple when it is sliced thin and has a crusty layer. Yummmy!

I could eat eggs and toast everyday...and I prefer strawberry jam over jelly but as long as it's there for me to use I'll take either. I don't eat much jelly/jam. I make it. Then I give it to other people for Christmas.
My opinion on the scrapple remains the same..ugh. last time I had it it was down in Lancaster where it's supposed to be the best..it had such a strong taste i almost puked.

maybe you need the prilosec is because you drink a pepsi every morning without any food. that's stuff's acidic!

having said that, i use prilosec and drink diet pepsi as well!

uncledaddy · 02-24-2008, 08:29 PM

What is scrapple?

And I should start popping Prilosec. Everything gives me heartburn these days.

Scrapple:

Quote:

Scrapple is a savory mush in which cornmeal and flour, often buckwheat flour, are simmered with pork scraps and trimmings, then formed into a loaf. Small scraps of meat left over from butchering, too small to be used or sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste. Scrapple is best known as a regional food of Philadelphia, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland.

Scrapple is typically made of hog offal, such as the head, heart, liver, and other scraps, which are boiled with any bones attached (often the entire head), to make a broth. Once cooked, bones and fat are discarded, the meat is reserved, and (dry) cornmeal is boiled in the broth to make a mush. The meat, finely minced, is returned, and seasonings, typically sage, thyme, savory, and others are added. The mush is cast into loaves and allowed to cool thoroughly until gelled. The proportions and seasoning are very much a matter of the region and the cook's taste.

I have been buying Polaner Spreadable Strawberries. It is the best.

SKinAZ · 02-25-2008, 11:07 AM

A glass of iced tea and a red quesadilla from El Taco in Downey, CA. (It's a family owned and run stand that has some really good eats.)

They have an amazing red sauce that has small chunks of shredded beef in it. I got one of those "treats" in my quesadilla this a.m. Yum!

My mother used to make some sort of "freezer strawberry jam" where the strawberries never had to be cooked (IIRC). Nothing from a store could ever match that stuff!

The Polander stuff isn't too bad, though. The Trader Joe's Organic Reduced Sugar Strawberry Preserves are pretty good, too.

cheapie · 02-25-2008, 12:35 PM

my wife makes freezer jam. yumm!

oblongmelon · 02-25-2008, 04:05 PM

Freezer Jam is delish on Vanilla Ice Cream!..mmmmmm

TofuNinja · 02-25-2008, 06:54 PM

I had nothing today..... sigh... well check that I got to my classroom and ate a yogurt and a stick of string cheese.....

gwilks98 · 02-25-2008, 08:42 PM

I skip breakfast and double up on lunch. Breakfast is too sweet for me. Blech.

zippyjuan · 02-25-2008, 11:15 PM

Have something not sweet.
For those having sodas for breakfast- are you not eating anything else until lunch- or are you snacking too in the morning? The body does not usually have much fuel in the AM and needs something. For maintaining body weight (not fat) you usually need to keep your blood sugar at a fairly stable level which means eating several smaller meals through out the day. Little or no breakfast can encourage the body to store more fat to compensate.
