OK, here's the deal. Let's talk about one of my 3 favorite things, food. Wink

We have people from all over the world in this group. Let's talk about the typical food that you eat in a day.

I will talk about Saturday. I get up and get a cup of coffee to get woke up after one cup I will put some (bought frozen at the store) biscuits in the oven and fry some bacon on the stove. After I cook the bacon I fix two eggs, either scrampled or fried. So it is coffee, bacon, eggs, and biscuits for breakfast.

Lunch (sometimes called dinner) is typically lighter than dinner. I will have a ham sandwich and potato chips for lunch, or maybe a hamburger and fries.

For dinner, (sometimes called supper) it varies quie a bit. Let's go with this. Fried chicken and mashed potatoes and green beans followed by a piece of apple pie.

Now people from other coutries (or you other Yankees) - what say you about typical food?

I like breakfast. I can eat it all day. This is funny because I wrote it already in my bio. nothing like a sunnysideup bacon and cheese muffin. GREAT TOPIC! :) What about you guys?

Hey cladclan, I live in Alabama.

Around here we call anybody north of Kentucky a Yankee. About 20 years ago I visited Canada and was surprised to learn that in their eyes I am a Yankee! Surprised

JustADude80, that sounds like my dream meal. I'm from a very health-conscious community, so I don't regularly eat rich foods (except for around the holidays). Obviously I like those foods a lot, though. I went on a school trip to Washington D.C. (and surrounding states) once, and everywhere we went, we ate Southern cuisine, so everybody was crazy about the super-rich food.

I usually will have cereal or a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, then for lunch I will have leftovers from my last dinner or a cold-cuts-and-cheese sandwich. For dinner my family will usually make either pasta or some form of grilled meat with vegetables.

Awesonechess, that is pretty close to my weekdays food. I eat a big breakfast on Saturday and Sundays. My Mon-Fri breakfast is likely two cups of coffee and a Pop Tart.

A few years ago I had a medical situation that required me to weigh myself every morning for about two months, so I got in the habit of doing that. It's almost normal for me to gain two pounds every weekend and lose it during the week and gain it back the next weekend. Embarassed

For us, in São Paulo, typical brea kfast is: black coffee (or with milk but I prefer plain black coffee), bread with butter, maybe some "cheese bread" (typical of Minas GErais, another state down here), sometimes bread with cheese and/or ham.

There is not here (at least in family houses) the habit of having eggs and other rich food.

Breakfast here is a little lighter than there, but lunch definitely is a more " substantious". Dinner is light, in general.

Vai, Corinthians !

(by the way, Corinthians will be playing two games in Florida in the next weeks..
