Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
I have a bag of these... somewhere. 7-11 had a coupon for $.50 off of a bag of the BEC or cheeseburger combos with the purchase of any size coffee.
I've been meaning to get the cheeseburger ones, I'm curious if they are as creepy as the BEC.
Essentials: Rice
I tend to make boring old medium grain rice. I don't like for there to be anything in my rice when I cook it, and perhaps a pinch of salt afterward. I can always tell when there's butter in white rice, which always annoys me when I go to a restaurant and ask for plain rice. I guess they figure Chinese restaurant in America means no one likes plain rice without butter? Who knows.
GumbeauxGal's method is about the method I use, but I don't add salt to the water and use 1.5 to 1.75 parts water to 1 part rice. I just just a regular 2 or 2.5qt pot for cooking it.
I need to go buy a new bag of rice...

A wood burning pizza oven on campus. Crazy!
It's in the pasta place, though, so I probably won't ever eat any.

I also agree with DanielJ. I'm getting really tired of this fake stop-motion/cg trend in movies.
It looks like they've taken something awesome and given it a run to the generic-o-matic.

This looks awful! What is wrong with the quality of movies these days?

Prepare to be served! I'm crying.

This was my favorite book growing up! I'm so excited!
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
I fall into the camp of anything goes for breakfast, though now that I'm more into the routine of my day job, I've been making mini-stratas (think breakfast casserole in a muffin pan) that reheat well (enough) through the week, so lately I've been much more breakfasty, saving leftovers for my lunch.
That doesn't mean I don't love pad thai for breakfast or that I've totally forgotten my childhood days of two hot dogs with velveeta cheese (no bun), and ketchup and mustard nearly every morning. I think anorexia must have been a big concern then because my parents would say things like "we're just thrilled to see her eating SOMETHING in the morning!" despite their usual hatred of hot dogs.

Nothing is "too weird" for me to eat for breakfast. I love leftovers. Pasta, chinese food, steak... bring it on. I really hate sweet food in the morning, though. Dried out pizza is preferable to a donut any day.
Last time I had a hangover, breakfast was a Fishamajig sandwich from Friendly's. I knew it would either make me feel ten times better or ten times worse. It worked out in my favor!

I'm guilty of eating leftovers for breakfast, but my most shameful morning meal was probably the morning before i took my SAT's when i was a sophomore in high school. My mom wasn't big on cooking in the first place, but the school had sent home letters saying that test takers needed to eat a good, hearty breakfast before the test. Mom's version of a good, hearty breakfast? Corned beef has from a can, some Totino's Pizza Rolls (combination flavor, of course), a hardboiled egg, and some V-8 to wash it all down. How the hell was I supposed to concentrate on the SAT's after consuming that amalgamation of a breakfast?
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
Ahh...yeah. I had Bagel Chips and a Budweiser one morning when I realized I had nothing in my fridge or cupboards. Breakfast of champions. I also recently heated up some leftover rice pilaf and mixed in some salsa, cheese and a Morningstar breakfast sausage patty...it was actually pretty good.

Can you really taste the egg? I am so unabashedly curious right now - I am just afraid that if I try them myself I am really going to like them and will have to eat both my words and my feelings.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
Dried up pizza. Even after microwaving it with a wet paper towel, it was... shall we say chewy?
Those combos are awesomely delicious, by the way.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
OK - I am pretty sure I'm not an idiot, but I legitimately do not understand this concept at all. The inside tastes like bacon, egg, AND cheese? All in a neat cheeze-whizesque package? How does this possibly make sense? Shouldn't the cracker at least taste like egg? I'm not hating on the Combo - it was good to me as a youngin', but why - why - why make the faux cheese taste like egg. What's next? Gefilte fish and horseradish? A congealed tube of Passover tucked within a neat little matzoh cracker.

i love eating "breakfast" foods for dinner (bacon, eggs, pancakes. . . ), so i don't really discriminate between breakfast and non-breakfast foods in the morning.
cold chinese food leftovers make a great breakfast. as does a twix bar with your coffee.

Fried rice, cold eggroll. Chocolate cake.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
Hahah. I think cochon and ohmygod really have the craziest BEC Combo-like breakfasts here. I think, like me, most other people have pretty non-embarrassing food that just falls into the category of non-breakfast-food breakfasts.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
Ok, this was a really long time ago when I was very, very young. A can of cold Chef Boy-ar-dee meat filled ravioli. It's not my fault. My mother was a terrible cook.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
my favorite guilty pleasure breakfast is cookies and milk... reminds me of the Bill Cosby bit. "Dad is great! He gives us chocolate cake!"
also i always get an extra order of crab rangoon from my favorite Thai place for midnight snack/breakfast.

i don't really like "breakfast foods" for breakfast, so almost every morning i'll have something shameful, ie curry and rice, tuna helper, beans and rice, etc. although i do love eggs in purgatory.

Last time I was in Japan, I was pressed for time one morning, and I ate a box of pancake-flavored Koala Yummies for breakfast. I figured if they tasted like butter and syrup, it was at least sort of similar to having a real meal...

Shrimp cocktail. No shame!
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
I just ate a cuban sandwich dipped in ranch dressing. It was really good. I am not ashamed!
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
my two favorite breakfasts, which i dont eat very often, are homemade cold fried chicken or my mom's apple pie, also cold... so good!
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Combos
I ate those very combos a couple weeks ago for breakfast. They are REALLY weird. Like, gross. I saw that they also make a cheeseburger flavor.
Otherwise, my breakfast habits are pretty normal and boring. Unless I'm hung over. Then for some reason breakfast burritos from under the heatlamp at quicktrip sound like manna from the gods...until i take a bite and remember...not so much.

" I love scrambling an egg and putting on top of leftover pizza, and then melting additional cheese on top. Yum. ".
thanks for the afternoon snack idea!

In undergrad, we were know to eat Ramen noodles with easy cheese an ketchup. Its a sure fire hangover cure, but I should still be drier than the Sahara after consuming that concoction.
