you open the box and it's only three-quarters full.

When an egg costs about 15 cents? There are a lot of ways to fix a better breakfast for a whole lot less money.

Well not alone anyway, if I eat too much sugar or carb-laden foods I get the shakes later (been like this for 20 years, been tested for diabetes, don't have it). egg-beaters with tofu and a veggie burger is my breakfast (I hate tofu but it fills you up and keeps hunger at bay until lunch)

All of that is expensive!! (and really full of sugar) I would much rather start my mornings with some fruit, like today I had a chunk of watermelon. Later I may whip up some egg whites and Grits. (Yes! I like grits!) with a bit of margarine. My favorite breakfast is traditionally Japanese, with rice, eggs and Nato, however I have moved to egg whites now..over whole eggs.

Especially since many people avoiding wheat also avoid other grains.

I used to eat a bowl of cold cereal with fresh fruit almost every morning, just as part of an otherwise high-protein breakfast (cottage cheese or eggs and/or ham, usually).

I've felt much better since giving up wheat. I'm much less likely to be hungry a couple of hours after a meal, too.

I went wheat-free after first reading about Dr. William Davis's book Wheat Belly here on DU.
