[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;47150141]nah, i like the taste of coffee and too much sugar/cream just takes that away and american coffee is the worst. at least from my experience, it's slightly bitter but the taste of coffee itself is barely there, yknow? so in the end it feels like all you're tasting is water with sugar and cream[/QUOTE] that's just cheap coffee, not american coffee. most cheap coffee just happens to be by american brands. america doesn't tend to export good stuff. whether it be coffee, beer, or anything else, america keeps all the good stuff domestic only.
I'm waiting for part 2 where they eat Vegemite/Marmite and their faces collapse into a black hole.
[QUOTE=Pretty Obscure;47140630]If you don't like the taste of coffee you're probably just not putting enough cream and sugar in it. Don't try and be a macho manly man "all the tv shows say I gotta drink it BLACK aggghhhrrrr" and sweeten the shit out of it and it becomes delicious as fuck.[/QUOTE] I like black coffee, but Vietnamese coffee has got to be one of the best things I've ever tasted.
The first few times I tried Coffee I hated at about as much as the kid in the video, but now I drink it half as regularly as tea. I switch between them to mix things up, or I drink Coffee so I can survive a long day, or if my taste buds feel completely dead.
I expected Netherlands breakfast to include a joint and a lighter.
[QUOTE=MisterSjeiks;47135440]I loved coffee when I was a kid, i'd put a shitload of milk and sugar in it though. For some reason I can't remember a single moment where coffee has kept me up, maybe I developed an immunity like babies do from breastmilk or something.[/QUOTE] I'm more of a milk-and-sugar person myself, though I only really have coffee on Mondays. I used to have it every evening when I arrived at work, but after the withdrawl symptoms I suffered after the November caffeine bender I had during NaNoWriMo, I've cut quite a bit of caffeine out of my "diet".
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;47136593]ive always thought english breakfast looked way too heavy. that looks like more than enough for lunch, i couldn't imagine eating that in the morning[/QUOTE] It's mostly a volume thing, the one pictured is the sort of quantity you'd get if you went to a pub for breakfast, you wouldn't have it every morning unless you were body building or something. At home you'd probably not bother with the grilled tomatoes, mushrooms or black pudding. Sausages, beans, egg, bacon and toast (or maybe hashbrowns) is more than enough if you have time to cook it.
That Chinese kid is adorable. [QUOTE]*picks up and eats a banana* "What do you think it is?" ".... Are you serious?" "... Cow poop! *falls down and laughs*"[/QUOTE]
This video and thread made me hungry.
[QUOTE=Source;47136974]Mate Eggs Benedict with Salmon is fucking amazing for Breakfast![/QUOTE] canadian bacon is better on eggs benedict
I used to hate coffee when I was a kid but now I drink black as fuck coffee. I just love how it tastes like the earth. I really like African style blends too, very flavorful and not in an acidy way like most coffees. Putting any cream or milk in it just dilutes the complex flavor and ruins the point of tasting good coffee. I can't fathom pouring sugar in coffee. Does everything have to be sweet for these people? Might as well just drink a damn coke for breakfast instead. You need some bitter flavors in life once a while and be able to appreciate it. Anyways, I am observing the many styles of breakfast from different countries. I gotta say, some of this shit I would NOT want to have on a groggy morning. And some of it is just so fancy. My idea of a normal person's breakfast is slapping together some shitty pancakes and eggs or cereal as fast as possible with a coffee. Who [I]really[/I] has the time and enthusiasm to make such beautiful plates in the morning? One thing I do love though are crepes. The French had it fucking down with crepes. Something about their simplicity and thinness I like. If there is one thing I don't understand from my own country is our obsession with bacon in the morning. It's so obviously greasy and bad for you, panning up some slab of ham or something is better for you and in my opinion tastes even better.

tbh I wish people took breakfast more seriously. Some people say its "The most important meal of the day" and yet they eat extremely light meals in the morning and heavy meals in the day. cereal makes the shittiest breakfasts for me, it's never enough. Breakfast for me needs protein and density to it.

I'm a plebeian that doesn't eat breakfast, and if I do, it's an english muffin with some butter. RIP
Fuck yeah hagelslag
Can this replace TheFineBros reaction series? Those kids are amazing.
[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;47135466]I've never heard of anyone having fish for breakfast, what the fuck?[/QUOTE] We're a nordic country so that means we only eat fish don't you get it
I don't like coffee either and I don't think it helps you stay awake either.
[QUOTE=spectator1;47177078]I don't like coffee either and I don't think it helps you stay awake either.[/QUOTE] Caffeine is proven to help you stay more alert and more awake. There's a reason people drink coffee. Also that Finnish breakfast is such bullshit though, unless they're going for some gourmet and exotic Finnish breakfast, yeah no that's not what we eat on a daily basis. also who the fuck puts onions on grav lax
where the hell was the ol' full english? ruddy ridiculous i might say

That's kind of what South America is known for. It's like saying "these wal-mart bananas aren't nearly as good as the ones I hand picked down in Costa Rica."
[QUOTE=Episode;47176798]Eggs and toast > Poptarts/cereal[/QUOTE] Egg+ham and toast with honey > Everything
[QUOTE=DMGaina;47140567]That's basicly me everytime I try to drink coffee. I just can't stand the taste.[/QUOTE] How old are you? Not in a "woah you must be a young twat" but as in genuine interest?
All these good looking breakfest and here i am eating French Toast Crunch

[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;47135466]I've never heard of anyone having fish for breakfast, what the fuck?[/QUOTE] Maaan, Mackerel in tomato sauce is awesome in the morning! A Regular Norwegian breakfast feast and you're from Finland, I count you guys as our equals when it comes to Scandinavian habits. Try that shit with some extra salt and pepper, if you're REALLY Scandinavian, put some mayo on that shit!!
how could you react to coffee like that HOW COULD YOU No but genuine question, what is it you guys don't like about it? Both bitter and with some sugar in, I think it tastes hella good
