   Breakfast at my house is me saying 'I'm going to put some butter on a baguette' and then me ending up making black bean paste from scratch and then black bean noodles. Every single time.

   Bread for breakfast is hard for me no matter how hard I try.

     'Breakfast food' as a concept is really hard for me. It just doesn't seem real. What do you mean people only eat a handful of randomly selected things for breakfast? Very weird.

     @skinnylatte I’ve always struggled with sweet for breakfast. It’s just “wrong”. Savory is the way to go.

     Breakfast where I’m from is 50 different types of noodles, maybe a South Indian flatbread, idli and dosa, idiyappam, coconut rice and chicken curry

     We sometimes go out for ‘western brunch’ as a novelty I guess

     @skinnylatte I just had stewed eggplant with okra and tomatoes -- cold -- for breakfast today. Recipe from "Japanese Plant-Based Cooking" by Yumiko Kano. Your black bean sauce w/black noodles sounds like a perfect breakfast to me.

     One time I decided to make a typical breakfast food: Hokkien prawn and pork rib noodle soup.

     It took months to collect the shrimp heads and many hours to make the soup. Economies of scale of southern Chinese southeast Asian breakfasts were perfected by our street food vendors

     @mrundkvist northern Chinese food feels very basic in comparison to what I like from the south. I like their buns and breads tho

     @skinnylatte I suggest you give the classic Beijing breakfast soup a pass. It consists largely of pork liver.

     There are many types of ‘Hokkien noodles’. It’s different in each part of the diaspora. But there are similarities.

     My breakfast Hokkien prawn noodles are similar to this one: https://rasamalaysia.com/recipe-penang-hokkien-mee-prawn-noodle/

     A slow cooked soup with a ton of shrimp heads and pork ribs. You can’t get this in a Malaysian restaurant abroad, they don’t have the economies of scale.

     I would buy this for US$3 from any shop back home.

     The dry one is tossed with pork and shrimp and chilli powder. Same soup on the side

     @skinnylatte that all sounds amazing, but don't you have to get up extra early to prepare everything? Or is it typically prepared the night before?

     I think most Western diets focus mainly on carbs and fiber for breakfast, something that can be put together within a few minutes 🤔

     @BrambleBearGrrrauwling @skategyrl US$2-5 meals out are sort of the cornerstone of that part of the world

     same in taiwan, thailand, and lots of places

     @skategyrl I think that needs building. Not sure how but that would be much nicer way tp live. Gonna look for examples and ask how they did it.

     @BrambleBearGrrrauwling @skategyrl there was a podcast i heard some time ago about how worker's cafeterias don't exist anymore in America because of changing economics and real estate. basically because people moved further into the burbs, this model doesn't work anymore

     Imagine a community coop cafeteria-food truck-work a shift a few times per week, have super yummy, time consuming food like this ready to eat for whichever meals you sign up for.
