Who cares about such rules? I have all sorts of 'dinner' type things
for breakfast quite often.

This works the other way, too - I love to have breakfast for dinner
sometimes, e.g., an omlette with a side of sausage or bacon.

True, I have poached eggs for dinner some times.

The other day, my sister visiting me had ice cream for dinner then the
cereal she had leftover from the morning. Then immediately had another
bowl of ice cream, for dessert. She can eat an impressive amount of
Moose Tracks.

Heh

When I was a kid, I used to eat six weet-bix (no idea what they're
called wherever you are) for breakfast, go to school, eat at recess
and lunch - then come home from school, eat another six weet bix
before dinner. I was skinny as a rake and seemingly had a bottomless
pit for a stomach.

These days I limit my wheat intake due to an intolerance, I wonder if
I had the same intolerance when I was a kid? It only became noticeable
in my adult life.

I once ate 12 pieces of toast for dinner... and was skinny back then.

That can not be healthy for a kid, they need a little protein. We had
the best school food, IMO, it was all southern food, except for
spaghetti and enchiladas.

I like to eat leftover Chinese food for breakfast, but never pizza.

my sisters used to eat cold pizza for breakfast.

And one put ketchup on her eggs... She had done this one time and her
bf showed up early, and she left me with them... Was actually not bad.

I can't stomache tequila, smells even the next day... I do like
strawberry daiquiri though, but have not had one in years.... Need to
learn how to use the juicer.

White Russian is a good breakfast on a Saturday. Followed up with a soft pretzel and a Long Island. Ready to go poolside with another Long Island by 8 am. Pizza and crap food all day with LI's.
Sunday AM hangover = White Russian. Monday is back to coffee until work is over.

I've had plenty of cold pizza for breakfast in my younger days...
along with a warm beer to wash it down. Hmm, not too keen to relive
the experience these days. Happy enough with it at the time though.

Dinner tonight is just some lasagna I froze and have reheated.

Use leftover beer to make beer bread. It still works the following
day.

Good idea.

Stale beer is also excellent for killing snails and slugs... you put a
jar or tray of stale beer at ground level and they can't resist it and
end up drowning in the beer. I did that for about six months, it
worked far better than I imagined it would. Between the stale beer and
my poultry, the snails and slugs are all but extinct around the house
and gardens.

I had pasta for breakfast. Sliced chorizo, onion, and olives in a tomato sauce, with rollini. Breakfast is often my biggest meal of the day, so that's not unusual for me. Yesterday was pork and chickpea curry with rice. Day before was Sichuan chilli pork with rice, and the day before that stir-fried pork.

Is this just a random rant or did somebody chew you out for having such
unorthodox ideas?

If it's the latter be sure to repay them the favor by objecting
incredulously to some statement, idea, or practice of theirs. I doubt
they will understand the irony but you never know.

You can eat whatever you want. I mostly have toast because I don't like to
eat a big breakfast.

This is what happens when you let people of the same sex marry. They
start eating spaghetti for breakfast. Please repent before it's too late!

As a kid, we often had leftovers from dinner the night before for breakfast.
The person/people eating it make the rules, just like having traditional
breakfast foods for dinner. My kids used to ask for oatmeal and toast for
dinner sometimes.

Not weird at all. If I have leftover spaghetti in the fridge, I'll
often have it for breakfast. Good boost of energy to start the day.

I almost never want "dinner" food for breakfast, but I often like
