What Breakfast Looks Like Around the World

On this breakfast table, you’ve got your miso soup, your steamed rice, and your broiled or grilled fish with a pot of hot tea. Sayonara, complex carbohydrates.

Eggs baked in tomato sauce with cumin, paprika, cayenne and feta cheese? Yes, please.

In Lima, you might get ceviche for breakfast. Or better yet, a chicharron sandwich: deep-fried pork rinds on crusty French bread.

Dessert for breakfast? We’re listening. Many Spaniards start their day with churros--thin, fried dough pastries dipped in champurrado, a rich chocolatey drink similar to hot cocoa.

Throughout Guyana and much of the Caribbean, breakfast consists of dried and salted cod seasoned with tomato and onion and served on a slab of fried dough.

These little fried balls are made of spiced, peeled and blended beans, and are often served with a side of fried plantains or yams as well as a pudding-like porridge made from ground maize.

This tropical jungle fruit tastes like a mixture of pineapple and chocolate. In other words: heaven.

Scrambled? Nah. Over easy? Pshaw. In Thailand, eggs are served soft-boiled and gulped down in a shot glass. Cheers!
