What I've learned about breakfasts:
--Bircher breakfast: Raw rolled oats and dried fruits, soaked overnight in milk. Can be heated up, but not cooked.
--Spaghetti: From a can. Yes, for breakfast. On toast. Can also be incorporated into a pizza, but that idea makes me a little nauseous.
--Baked beans: Also from a can. Also on toast. Also blurgh, in my opinion.
And investigations into sandwiches:
--Beetroot: Sweet, boiled, sliced beets are very common on sandwiches. It is surprisingly tasty and is quite pretty.
--Pumpkin: Roasted, spicy pumpkin is a common vegetarian option for sandwich fillings.
--Salads: All the raw veggies that go on sandwiches: the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, etc. The sandwich-maker will ask you, 'Do you want all the salads on that?'
--Vogel: Vogel's is a common brand-name of sliced sandwich bread at the grocery store. At a cafe, you can order a 'Vogel' (although I think they should call it 'The Synechdoche'): a sandwich with any type of filling between two pieces of regular fluffy sliced bread that either are or resemble Vogel's.
--Toastie: Or you can have them put your Vogel in a panini press and toast it up. This is especially pleasant when it incorporates cheese.

As if spaghetti-from-a-can pizza is somehow worse than the 5-way Chili from Steak 'n Shake.
Ha! You're hilarious to remember that! Touche. You've made my day. (I would totally eat Steak n Shake chili on a pizza.)
There ought to be a law regarding acceptable breakfast food: some type of cereal/oatmeal/porridge, bread, eggs, juice, milk, jam and butter. Anything involving meat or potatoes that early in the morning is criminal.
