In Austin they're called breakfast tacos, not breakfast burritos.  Unless they're on really, REALLY big tortillas.

Out of curiosity...


  • On what percentage of days do you eat a "real" breakfast? I.e. something that is at least minimally cooked/prepared. And by "minimum" I'm talking it at least goes into a toaster and gets covered in butter / cream cheese / etc, or is cereal with milk in a bowl that you sit at a table to eat... 
  • On what percentage of days (inclusive of above) do you eat *anything* before lunch? 


For me, #1 is well under 10%. I rarely cook/eat anything for breakfast. Even on weekends when we have the kids, I'll give them cereal or waffles/bagels in the toaster, but usually won't "make" anything for myself. 

#2 is probably more often, maybe 30% or a little more. It used to be even less. It increased when we got our egg cooker, because it's super easy to hard boil eggs and have them on hand, so when I remember to eat, I'll do two hard boiled eggs with salt & pepper. And I've tried to get to the point where I eat something on golf days, especially as I usually walk the course, so I keep my energy level up. But I often don't even make it a priority to eat, even when doing a morning Peloton ride, unless it's 60 minutes or longer. 

I tend to think I'm an outlier. I know a lot of people who if they haven't eaten before 1-2 PM feel physically ill, whereas I can occasionally forget to eat or not feel like eating until dinner and think nothing of it. 

What about you guys?

I'll never ever ever understand people voluntarily eating hard-boiled eggs.

Pretty much like you.  On weekdays, 3 out of 5 days I probably don’t eat anything until around lunch and when I do it’s a cookie, pop tart, apple, banana, whatever.  I will say over the winter my kids didn’t play any sports so we had more lazy weekends where I could cook a late breakfast, and I did that several times.  But I only eat a “real” breakfast probably 2-3 times per month, and it’s almost always on a weekend.  But my downfall is I don’t eat that much during the day and then go workout right after work.  Then after I workout I’m really hungry.  So from like 5 until I go to bed I’m constantly eating something.

There's a "your mama" joke waiting to happen.

I don't eat breakfast, anything before noon unless it's something to do with someone or a group that wants to do something

otherwise, a bloody and a beer back is fine

Basically 100%.  I'd be hangry to the point of being unfit for work by the time I showed up if I didn't eat something.  Even on weekends, I never go past 8:30ish without eating something.

On #1, that's 100% by your minimum standards.  What I think of as a "real" breakfast almost always happens for us for dinner (supper-dinner, not lunch-dinner).

When I offered "breakfast" I was speaking of the traditional foods NOT timing... I dislike mornings and have to have a good reason not to be in bed before 12-1a... staring at the ceiling is the biggest waste of time there is.  Unless you're an out of work painter in Italy or a tourist at the same. 

It's the foods I enjoy. 

Before 4p? I'm at least ten mugs of coffee deep, probably a quarter pack of spirits and as much as two tins of skoal into it... nicotine, caffeine, and straight hate, yall... the breakfast of survivors.  Around 6p the grazing begins.  When I slow down I'll cook, or stop long enough to eat my wife's dinner... I cook breakfast foods then, and wonder why I don't eat it every morning....  just to kick off the next morning at 6a full of hate and trying to balance it out with caffeine and nicotine. 

Then,  out of nowhere, I'll spend all day smoking a standing ribeye roast or brisket,  ribs or sausages, preppin sides and leveling up the desperate situation of alcohol absence.  I'll often make breakfast on the griddle adjacent the grill and smoker while doing this.  Life is a weird flow.
