Up at 7, ouch. So I stumble into the cafeteria hoping for some toast maybe, or a bowl of cereal (my head pounding, keep this in mind). I get handed a piece of fish and a bowl full of rotten (on purpose rotten, hard to explain) soybeans over rice. Ugh. Almost lost it. Okay, so I decide I'll just have coffee. Nope, no coffee. Only green tea. Barf!

It looks pretty gross, and I imagine it's even grosser whan you're facing a bowl of it while hung-over.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan I was on a "bachelor party" camping trip for my brother. We ate garbage all weekend. Obscene amounts of meat and grease and beer.

Compared to what we had been eating, it almost seemed like health food. For reasons known only to himself, just before the hash browns were finished, my uncle dumped a huge pot of the bacon grease all over the eggs and hash browns. The stuff was floating in it. He thought it gave the hash browns a mild, bacony flavor. In actuality, it congealed and looked like a grease quiche. The few poor souls who attempted to eat it suffered mightily. I chickened out, and it may be why I'm alive today.

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight My worst breakfast was also THE BEST breakfast I've ever had! Nothing will EVER compare to it. At the ripe ol' age of 4 1/2, Madame Leota wanted to make me breakfast.

The said plate was stuck into the microwave and the pressing of the microwave buttons commenced. I dont remember how long it was in there, but it was enough to splatter the entire inside, semi cook the egg to an edible gelatinous wiggly-goo and harden the bread when it cooled enough to eat it( bless her heart she even she tried to cover the plate with an 'unopend' napkin). That smileing little face of hers all lit up with being proud that she cooked her Mom breakfast all by herself was enough to make that THE VERY BEST WROST BREAKFAST I've ever had. Thank You Madame Leota for reminding me of that WONDERFUL memory!

At a conference or a B&B or a relative's house or something. I literally could not believe at first that I was expected to eat the plate of slop that was set before me. It was a "Breakfast Burrito" or "Huevos Recyclados" or some kind of trendy faux-Mexican invention. They'd somehow managed to take the usual six ingredients of fake Mexican food and mix them to create something resembling urp. Worse, the thing was then strewn with jalapenos and doused with Tabasco. For BREAKFAST?! Give me a break! Morning is a dicey proposition for me to start with. My breakfast needs to encourage me, not challenge me. Despite hunger and the desire not to be rude, I couldn't eat more than a bite of it.
