Simple breakfast for me. I'll have Weet-Bix, which looks like this:

And then I'll follow that with two slices of toast with peanut butter on both of them.

I like my breakfast to be simple because I'll often have to go to uni, so the quicker it takes to prepare, the better it will be time-wise.

You guys don't have Toaster Strudels or Toaster Scrambles down there? They're depressing as hell to eat, but fast, efficient, and filling.

I seriously had to Google what they are. No, we don't have them in Australia. You guys (assuming you're American) have come up with, er, creative foods to have for breakfast.

Why are they depressing to eat?

Because they taste like they're trying to taste like what you see on the box, but they don't actually know what you see on the box should taste like.

So, you're saying that if you buy this:

The resulting flavour would be nothing like cream cheese and strawberry?

Come to think of it, does cream cheese and strawberry even combine well for a breakfast food?

It tastes like fake cream cheese and strawberry in a flaky crust with goopy frosting.

While I can't say anything about cream cheese and strawberry, berry and cream combos go really well together. Dala and I are pretty into some scandanavian yogurts right now. They're thick and substantial, not very sweet, and kind of bitter, but very good. Our go to flavor is vanilla, because vanilla yogurt with strawberries or blueberries and a bit of granola is amazing. You can dip cookies in it, which is also amazing. Best of all, you take a bite of the yogurt, then a sip of black coffee, and the two complement each other so well.
