cheesecake (with frozen berries and whipped cream)
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.
Pho. I have a pot every morning.
A pot o’ pho? Isn’t that a French thing?
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.
A wrap - 2 boiled eggs, beans, shredded cheese, dill pickle, salad dressing, and pepper. After that high protein greek yogurt with creatine and ground flax.
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.
At this point, i’m just happy there’s food
Probably not the weirdest by a long shot, but I absolutely love having leftover dinner for breakfast because I’m not a big breakfast food fan.
One of my favorites is if there’s leftover homemade mac and cheese, I’ll take some and heat it. Then I’ll put some on a tortilla and then add ketchup. Roll it up and I will gladly devour it.
Pickled herring. Or soused herring. Or really, any kind of cold fish.
“Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast!”
Do grits count? Grits with as close to an entire stick of hot butter as someone will let me have.
Grits is traditional breakfast foods though? When were you eating them before?
Grits with butter, cheese, and nutritional yeast, yum!
I love a Greek salad for breakfast. Eating salad as the first meal of the day makes me feel energetic, without the heavy, achy feeling that meat and bread-based foods give me.
My wife and I don’t eat traditional American breakfast at all, it’s always either refried beans, some kind of Indian curry, or protein and fried rice. PBJ is supplemental otherwise.
We love a breakfast burrito with refried beans, potatoes, eggs, onion, cheese, salsa.
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.
Whenever I’m talking to a little kid and they start trying to joke me, I normally reply with the “oh yeah. Well I can go and eat cake for breakfast or dinner if I want.” That usually shuts them down.
For the confused they are normally related through family or friends. I’m not just going out to the playground to start trash talking a kid. They normally are just being kids and start making jokes.
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
Cold slice of leftover cheese pizza.
The best hangover breakfast.
Love toaster pizzas for breakfast of any time really
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.
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.
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.
Peanut butter sandwich with mustard.
What deeeee fuk?
What type of mustard?
I don’t tend to use Dijon for this, but most types of brown mustard or spicy mustard go well. Also other vinegary condiments such as chimichurri or cilantro chutney.
You are a wild one that’s for sure. Is it the peanut butter vinegary tang? Would you put pickles in your peanut butter? Or maybe kimchi?
It’s salty fats dressed with acid, that’s exactly right.
I think this counts as unconventional at all times of day… and night.
The question could be read either way.
Yuck, have an upvote haha
