   Thinking about how the breakfast foods you grew up with maybe shapes your preferences forever. Unless something drastic happens.

   Like I find anything slightly sweet for breakfast utterly revolting. Sugar. Donuts. Honey on bacon. Sugar really.

   But anything with fat and salt and spices is ideal for me for breakfast. Probably revolting to people who like sugar.

     @skinnylatte my mother was of the sweet-milky breakfast preference.

     She was HORRIFIED by my salty/sour/rice-based breakfast. Had she known that after her death I would go on to eat seaweed and tofu and kimchis for breakfast - she would have turned around and died again.

     I have one sibling who's like me (my "taste-buddy”, which is a term my mother coined) and two who very much are NOT.

     Go figure.
     De gustibus, etc.

     @mllsc we eat a seafood curry noodle soup for breakfast where I grew up.. find the idea of breakfast food quite strange in general!

     @skinnylatte oh absolutely. I'm a full adult and still eat sweetened breakfast cereal a majority of all mornings. Even before I started reducing meat I would never want anything meaty for breakfast.. Savory grits get a pass though cause I ate those growing up too!
