alarm is set for 3.45 am this week , dinner is at 10.30 am
In the good old days when I did more miles for work than I do now I could have two of the Little Thief Olympic breakfasts, plus a couple of hotel breakfasts in a week.
Then there's the steak, followed by cheese and biscuits, washed down with Guinness whilst stopping away.

Maybe 2 or 3 times a year. They're nice, but they're a day's calories pretty much, and I'm fat enough, so I keep it occasional.
I will have one bacon butty on most weekends though. Other days, just toast normally, the odd egg, sometimes muesli, sometimes fruit. I'm coming across as an angel here possibly, so to be clear, I'm already a tubby git who doesn't need extra lard, that's all that's keeping me from the Premier Inn buffet or the local cafe.

On the subject of breakfasts and 'processed food' in general, i can constantly taste chemicals in food. I presume it's the preservatives they put in. I thought it was just me, but a friend told me his 12 year old daughter is now refusing lots of things, saying they taste of chemicals. I had some breaded lemon sole fillets for tea, with a couple of slices of bread. I couldn't get rid of the chemical taste after i'd eaten it.
I used to like Hollands pies, but they taste sweet now.

Rarely. A couple of eggs with some bacon crumbles, or a bowl of cereal. But I've gotta say, a no-holds-barred BIG breakfast is one of my fave feast meals. Haven't had a breakfast outside the home in over 1.5 years! I bet I’m not the only one either.

I like boiled eggs and bread soldiers. Is that a cooked breakfast?🤔

Not a breakfast man me. I force a low sugar oaty bar dkwn my throat each morning though. The coffee (black, no sugar) is much more my early morning poison.
Dread to think fatter I would be with a cooked breakfast each day.

Ah, yes, the guilt-free Full English.
A wonderful start to a working day.
Or it was, until l read the newspapers:
Those fancy Mutti tomatoes from southern Italy I think are lovely and tasty - the company pays slave labour wages to its illegal migrant pickers….
That bacon from my local butcher, sliced a thickness of my choosing, and shown to me on the grease proof before he wraps it - full of nitrite, which increases my chance of bowel cancer by 20%
Free range eggs? Oh yes. No. Sit with a vegan and hear about Instantaneus Mechanical Destruction and you would be hard pressed to enjoy a fried egg, unless you had your own hens.
Gluten effects in fried bread? The cholesterol?
WTAF.
And so the list goes on.
Ive just had porridge, milk and yoghurt, all made or grown within twenty five miles of home. The Bogoya banana chips were hand sliced and dried in Uganda.
So my only concern now is the carbon impact of the air miles in my breakfast.
Im imagining the anxiety caused by the burden of guilt will shorten my life expectancy by about the same amount as sausage-induced bowel cancer, but may be an easier burden to bear? Answers on a postcard please to: Worried Eater, 2, Handwringers Close, Guiltford, Sorrey.
