Why is egg such a common thing to eat for breakfast?

It's high in cholesterol, right? And people have more than one of those every morning?

How about the rest of cholesterol you eat for the rest of the day?

 

[callmedave]

5/7 days of the week I have

On the weekend, I have eggs.

Is this the Costco equivalent of a Quest Bar? How's the taste and price?

 

[Zackat]

soylent and a handful of raw almonds

I looked this up before and the general consensus from many discussions and sources I've seen say they're fine to eat for breakfast. https://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness/comments/22l6ek/is_it_bad_to_eat_eggs_every_morning/?sort=top

 

[Platinumstorm]

Oatmeal with a cut up banana and some honey. If I'm running late I take a clif bar to clinic and then eat rep food if it looks semi healthy.

 

[Namikaze]

3-4 eggs, 3-4 pieces of bacon, Greek yogurt, Peanut butter toast, milk, and a banana seem to be the regular breakfast for me.

I work out a lot but I still know the bacon is gonna kill me

 

[DontTouchMe]

I usually don't but whenever I do I feel hungry almost all day because of it.

 

[LionPride]

I don't eat breakfast everyday if ever

 

[Diancecht]

Peach, apricot, watermelon, black olives, feta and tea.

 

[Cerun]

Usually nothing

 

[hatchx]

Literally everyday unless something weird happens:

A smoothie with:
-1 banana
-some strawberries (fresh or frozen)
-milk
-handful of spinach
-a raw egg



I find it hard to eat when I wake up, so smoothies have been a life saver. I used to skip breakfast, but since I started this habit, I feel so much better through-out the day.

Dietary cholesterol is such a small part of the problem. While more and more research is showing that cholesterol is just a innocent bystander when it comes to cardio vascular disease.

 

[Tevious]

Nothing. Maybe water.

 

[lacinius]

Nothing.

I see. That's good to hear then. I love eggs.

 

[itwasTuesday]

coffee

I wish I was more regular about eating breakfast though. I used to be, but now.. not such much. Don't do this young gaf.

 

[Juanfp]

If I have time before leaving my house I eat a sandwich with thing that I find in the refrigerator, if not I buy the breakfast at the university:
(I really don't know how to translate this things)
Tortilla de maiz
Colada de avena
Or Bolon when I know that won't have time to lunch

 

[99Luffy]

Is this the Costco equivalent of a Quest Bar? How's the taste and price?

Its got the same chewy texture as quest bars. It doesn't taste as good though. Its great for the price though.

 

[iosa]

Cold chocolate milk with krisprolls, jam and butter.
When I can I add a freshly squeezed orange juice.

Sometimes though I replace the krisprolls with croissant and chocolatine.

 

[GeordieMark]

Weekdays my regular breakfast is a chocolate croissant and a latte from Pret. I don't tend to have anything other than a cup of tea on weekends.

 

[Apathy]

My one coffee for the day, no sugar no cream/milk and a banana

 

[Sidewinder]

Real bread with butter and selfmade jam and one glass of milk.

 

[Messofanego]

Crunchy nut + almond oats cereal

Or spicy egg sandwich

 

[O.DOGG]

Smoothie with various fruit, nuts, seeds and protein powder.

 

[Subpar Scrub]

Usually a protein shake with avo on toast or if I'm lazy I'll grab Subway or something.

I don't eat breakfast every day though. I woke up at 10.20 today so I just had some water and waited for lunch.

 

[empyrean]

I do 16/8 intermittent fasting so no breakfast for me.

 

[Aarglefarg]

For the past few months, I often have:
-vegemite and cheese on one slice of toast and peanut butter on another slice, or
-grill some cheese on two halves of a bread roll and put some sauce on it (today a pide roll with homemade tomato sauce on one and peri-peri sauce on the other), or
- (just a few times) vegetarian sushi rolls.

Usually with orange juice.

 

[SirNinja]

Two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

Spoiler

Eggs mostly

 

[CrackPebbles]

I don't have breakfast at all because I'm pretty much never hungry in the morning, at most i'll drink a cup of black coffee. but I don't worry about meal timing and just focus on macronutrients, eat whenever I feel like it.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Eating in the morning makes me sick, so generally just tea.

 

[Meadows]

About half the time I'll skip it and just have a coffee and maybe a banana. When I do have it, maybe just a croissant with a coffee and some cranberry/orange juice.

 

[Herne]

If I'm up at the course, two slices of soda bread with low-fat butter, a banana and a cup of tea. If I'm at home, two pots of low-fat Muller rice (Raspberry and Apple, Strawberry and Original) and a 1 litre bottle of sparkling water I'll take a few hours to drink (Apple & Elderflower, Peach & Passion Fruit, Summer Fruits, White Grape & Blackberry, Grapefruit & Mandarin).

I should really get the soda bread and some bananas for when I'm at home... The rice pots only fill you for so long.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

After years of only drinking coffee, now I'm putting some effort into my breakfast and it has significantly improved my daily routine. My typical breakfast: coffee, one glass of orange juice, one egg, some bacon, two toasts with some fromage.

Aldi

Weetabix with milk. I still get hungry around 10am though :-(

I make porridge with banana each morning for my 18mo daughter, porridge with soya milk for my SO and our 4yo daughter is on 1 1/2 weetabix.

-overnight soaked oatmeal with frozen berries and maple syrup
-banana
-Greek yogurt

I need to try overnight oats - I've got some recipes bookmarked somewhere, so will probably give it a go when I have a week off.

 

[Ferr986]

Just coffee or a juice. I can't literally eat anything when I wake up and I don't get hungry till lunch time.

 

[Bakercat]

One of those breakfast bowls you can get at the store and a bowl of cereal with some cold carmel coffee.

 

[woopWOOP]

Bread meme except without the shitty cheese and with some peanutbutter instead

And milk

 

[Red Liquorice]

I've been doing the overnight oats thing weekdays for about a year and still going strong. I rarely eat lunch so it really keeps me going throughout the day.

5 tablespoons of oats, one of raisins, 1 grated apple/pear, 1 banana, 3 tbsps of yogurt, 1 tsp of honey, pinch of cinnamon, half a small cup of water (milk if you want, but I don't miss it) to make it wet, put it in a mason jar and leave in the fridge overnight. You can put anything in it, it's just easy/cheap for me to buy apples and bananas. Sometimes I toast the oats in bulk, like when making cranachan, to give it a nice flapjack flavour, usually can't be bothered. I prep tomorrows before I eat the ready one, 5 minute job.

Weekends I have pineapple (without fail, I need my Friday/Saturday pineapple!) and kiwi or toast.

 

[WinterIsComing]

2 eggs scrambled with a slice of cheese, everyday.

On weekends i put it in the middle of a bread, with lettuce, tomato and onions.

 

[SuperInuit]

coffee and a cigarette
never really wake up hungry

 

[casablanca]

A shake with roughly 800calories. Depends on what i have in the kitchen.
Sunday morning is acai bowl day!

 

[Benzychenz]

Not enough time to have a good breakfast. Usually have some cereal.

Days off I'll cook eggs and have them with avocado, tomato, mushroom etc, or make pancakes or something. Wish I could do that 7 days a week but I'm not getting up at 6am for it.

 

[TheDanger]

Usually just a bong rip

 

[Lemonte]

Rye bread and coffee.

 

[Qasiel]

Hardly anything. I don't like eating when I'm not hungry and I'm not usually feeling that way until a good few hours afterwards, which is usually lunch time.

I guess the first thing I consume after waking is usually my only coffee of the day.

 

[13ruce]

White bread and peanut butter or tosti and some random fruit and a glass of milk and a glass of green tea.

 

[black_13]

On weekends I make Dutch Pancakes which I learned from Food Wishes on youtube. Tastes amazing!

 

[arigato]

Usually some fruit (Apple, banana, pre-cut pineapple, ect.) otherwise some oatmeal or some kind of Nature Valley bar.

Pre-cut refrigerated pineapple is so refreshing and delicious.
