By "western culture" I assume you mean "Anglo," because a typical
breakfast in non-English speaking "Western" countries includes foods
that you don't normally see served for breakfast in the US, Canada,
the UK, Ireland, Australia or New Zealand.

For example, a typical breakfast in the Netherlands consists of a
choice of cheeses, sliced meats, bread, cereal and hard boiled eggs.
Leave out the eggs and you've still got your protein.

In Mexico & Central America (also considered parts of the Western
World) I used to eat a breakfast of rice & beans with either eggs or
fish. It's still one of my favourites.

Baked beans on toast is another protein breakfast option.

Also - Don't know if it's 100%, but I was told in a Weight Watchers
meeting that when cereals (carbs) are combined with milk they become a
protein.
