My initial response was, and still is: That's Nasty!!!

That being said, I would try it just for the gross out factor. I'd try 'em first after the high grade kicked in. I would then try again later so I could see if they were really as bad as I thought? Or is it the smoke doing the talking? Even more disturbing is the very real possibility that I might actually like the horrifying little things. Justifying White Castle is one thing, these things are another matter entirely....

Yes, of course.  Also, waffles with maple syrup along with huge amounts of bacon.  The "sweet and savory" combination if very popular in our superlative American gastronomy.

Title: Re: America is doomed!

GAH.

It reminds me of being back in public school during lunch, when all of my friends would sit around me in the cafeteria and make fucking horrifying combinations of all the different food they got and share it. They'd always ask me to tryit, and other than the fact that I didn't want to put my mouth on something they all took bites out of ("Ugh. You guys, you're all going to get mono.") they'd have things like sausage and peaches on a hamburger bun or they'd take apart a wrap and stuff it with ketchup and chicken and french fries and beans. Actually, I think that one was a favorite.

I'm so glad I'm home-schooled. x_x;.

As far as people from the US eating sausage and pancakes, back when I ate pork I was definitely guilty of eating them at the same time, but not in the same bite, if that makes any sense. But, ew, who the hell puts syrup on sausage? I feel like that's just asking for diabetes or something. D:

Pancakes, sausage, syrup: The McGriddles is the brand name for a breakfast sandwich available at McDonald's in the United States, Canada, and Japan. All McGriddles sandwiches feature "griddle cakes" as the baked product that holds it together. These are similar to small pancakes, but also contain an injection of maple-flavored syrup deep inside their griddle folds.

You must have me confused, Philly. I've only ever been to the West Coast and Hawaii, and that was way back in early '89. Man, I'm getting old.

As for cucumber sandwiches and baked beans for breakfast, they are English 'delicacies', so don't tar me with that brush. Vegemite, I'll concede, but I'm struggling to think of too many other bizarre foods or combinations that we consume. I'm sure we do, but they just don't seem bizarre to me as they are commonplace.

Don't get me wrong, I love sausages, love bacon, love eggs and pancakes. I'd just never thought of putting them all together on the one plate and then drown them in maple syrup. A stomach turning thought indeed.

I rarely eat pancakes, but if I do it is usually maple syrup, and if I have the munchies I'll add some cream to that. Otherwise, butter and sugar, or sugar and squeezed lemon, or butter, sugar and lemon.

I suppose I should not get too cocky as my favourite breakfast of all time is/was lambs brains (crumbed and pan fried) and bacon. I say, was, because it is all but impossible to get fresh lambs brains in Aus these days as they have to be tested for cjd (or cdj, whichever it is). The frozen ones just don't cut the mustard as far as I'm concerned. My people (even Aussies) are grossed out by this, but it was a family tradition on Saturday mornings. I used to love rolling around in bed to the aroma of lambs brains on the frypan.

Nowadays, I have to settle for poached eggs on turkish, with a side of bacon, chipolatas and half an avacodo from my favourite cafe, SPQR. Yummy.

Crumbed brains are delicious - first gently poached in an aromatic broth then fried in parmesan-flavoured crumbs, giving a golden, crunchy exterior that contrasts nicely with the creamy richness inside. The dish is finished with a little browned butter from the pan and a squeeze of lemon.
Add some bacon, and Bob's your uncle.

Ray, that is just too easy. I will avoid the temptation.

One of my favorite breakfasts is an old dish my father indoctrinated us on called fried cheese. It was rather like Welsh rarebit but a bit thinner, made with cheese, bacon and a bit of water then served over toast.

Yummy and definitely a coronary in situ.

Yes Jeff, some of us still cook. I prefer it.

Nowadays though, my breakfasts are usually just quick and easy: Two eggs over easy, two pieces of millet bread with butter and blackberry jam, a slice of ham, some hash browns and a small bowl of fruit, all washed down with 8 oz. of fresh carrot juice and four cups of coffee.

Quick and simple, but it works.

HUGS,

breakfast? what's that?  ???
I have never been a breakfast person, brunch yes...
I think it is because my body is not awake until at least 2 hours after I get out of bed and moving.  Even as a child my breakfast usually consisted of a huge glass of chocolate milk..that's it.  I really only enjoyed breakfast on the weekends when mom would make soft boiled eggs and we would have a variety of breads , cold cuts, cheeses, jams and fresh fruit.  I think I only liked it because mom never got up before 10am on the weekends so I was up and ready by the time breakfast was ready.
Now I don't eat a propper breakfast anymore, not since I started Videx....I have to take it on an empty stomach so the best time for me is first thing in the am...by the time I get to work and I can grab a bite, 2 hours or more have gone by and I end up eating an apple or some junk like a danish.
Plus, with high cholesterol say goodbye to bacon, saussage, eggs...breakfast becomes so boring.... :(

Just toss that together, do ya Betty Crocker?  Are ya wearin' those chaps I like so much when yer cookin' it up?   :o

Myself, sometimes buttered toast, sometimes oatmeal w/ margarine and brown sugar, sometimes fruit, but if I really want to be happy I throw down.  Biscuits and gravy, eggs, potatoes, meats, pastries.  If I really want to touch heaven, mimosas (plural).  Of course, I'm stoned.

America can never be doomed so long as good people continue to clog their arteries with good ole home-grown, god-fearing American breakfast cuisine!
