Breakfast Showdown

[CIVPhilzilla]

I like both, but bacon is better.

 

[Mehmed100]

I much prefer bacon. I don't think I would eat it for breakfast though.

 

[Speedo]

The words "bacon, egg and cheese" officially win this thread for bacon. Discussion closed.

 

[Grisu]

Why eat croissants for breakfast? They're too light. That'll keep me going for maybe an hour.
A breakfast of sausages, bacon, toast, maybe some beans, a lot of butter and then maybe a croissant too (in order of importance):
that's a proper way to break a fast.

you don't just eat croissanats for breakfast you take the croissants with butter, jam/marmelade/whatever then have some cheese, maybe a boiled egg (with mayonnaise ), fruit juice and coffee. that will certainly bring you through to lunch )

though I have to say I prefer proper bread (note: not toast) over croissants (though they're good too)

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

Bacon, depending on how it's cooked. Preferably not too crispy.

 

[Rheinmetall]

Bacon? Sausage? I can't stomach any meat in the morning. Bread with some veggies on top, youghurt and such for me.

 

[Tycho Brahe]

Would croissants count as danish pastry?

 

[Swedishguy]

Bacon is overrated, IMHO.

 

[Catharsis]

Would croissants count as danish pastry?

They are both from the pastry family, but comparing one to t'other would be like comparing a bluetit to an ostrich. If you get it wrong, you're likely to get your head kicked in.

 

[GenMarshall]

Both!

[Kan' Sharuminar]

I don't really have anything in the mornings except a cup of tea. Bacon is my favourite of the two, particularly in a sandwich.

 

[Mulholland]

This thread made me so hungry I went out and got a huge breakfast with my GF this morning. Three eggs, baked beans, toast, potatoes, four kinds of meat OJ and coffee. The four kinds of meat consited of both bacon and sausage but I must say the bacon was tastier.

 

[Catharsis]

And no croissants. And you're from Quebec.

 

[Mulholland]

What's with you and the croissants?

 

[LucyDuke]

Croissants are quite yummy.

 

[Catharsis]

What's with you and the croissants?

I'm obsessive.

 

[Junglecutter]

Sausages fit better through one's mouth/throat than bacon and therefore more energy efficient...

 

[Simon Darkshade]

I'd have to say bacon in a very close race over the banger. However, if we define black pudding as sausage, then it probably reverses the result a bit, but bacon is still the most versatile and the foundation stone of a fine breakfast.

The sausages have to be proper English style pork, though. None of this spicy kaboodle.

A combination of some or all of the following will do:

Bacon, fried eggs, beefsteak, sausages, ham, black pudding, kippers, fried bread, tomatoes, mushrooms, devilled kidneys, beans, fried potatoes, thick cut toast and a bit of roast chicken. Tea and fruit juice. A proper breakfast.

 

[Dann]

Similar close race here, with sausage juuuuust edging out.

Ideal Filipino breakfast for me that features sausage:
Sausage + sunny side up egg + pickled papaya strips + garlic fried rice + coffee

Ideal Chinese breakfast for me that features sausage:
煎饼

w/ egg, sausage and 油条

+ congee or soya milk

As for bacon my favorite combo is the traditional bacon, lettuce, tomato sandwich but with additional pickles and cucumber slices.

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

I like both! But good bacon beats good sausage on a given day.
