Cold pizza. Straight out of the fridge.

For normal breakfast food:
Ham/egg/cheese cruisant sandwich
Bacon/egg/chesse biscuit sandwich
Eggs, sausage, french toast, and milk.

There is this one breakfast dish I had a couple years ago, I don't know what its called, or whats all in it, but its a baked dish that has egg, a blend of cheeses, sausage, ham, pepperoni, bacon, and I think there was some other meats in it. I did NOT look good, but damn it tasted great. If anyone knows what that is and can give me the recipe, I would greatly appreciate it.

Fav. breakfast:
2 eggs over easy w/wheat toast to sop up the yokes.
Biscuits and gravy
Bacon, not to crispy
Home fries covered and smothered with gravy and cheese
chicken fried steak, more gravy

lol! I was once at a conference in the Catskills of New York and the breakfast offering included grits. In my surprise I exclaimed "Grits! I luuuuv grits!" and proceeded to help myself to a heaping serving. Three people who were standing near me - I guess they were taken in my my enthusiasm because they proceded to serve themselves grits too and were disappointed by the taste (or distinct lack thereof) and then proceeded to get mad at me! Hey, I never told them that they should eat it!

It's not that grits taste particularly good (or bad or anything). They have a nice comforting texture, softer than your average oatmeal. Reminds me of the rice porridge (congee) that I grew up with. I prefer mine savory, with butter, salt, and pepper, and a side of eggs over easy.

In the summer time, cold cereal with milk and fresh fruit (but preferably not bananas)

In the winter time, hot oatmeal cooked with small hunks of sweet potatoes.

In the spring and fall, yogurt and granola. Or morningstar farms veggie sausage patties with fresh fruit.

For weekend brunch, a nice savory frittata. yum yum!

You not missing anything. They don't have a smell or a taste. All they have is the texture which is obviously gritty. It's one of the nastiest things I've ever tried to eat.

Grits are not gritty. Are you sure you cooked them right?

I didn't cook them at all. I've tried them several times at friends' houses here in Georgia. They were wet lumpy, bumpy beads of grossness.
