Breakfast for dinner and angioplasty for 2nd breakfast

Only if the French toast is loaded with sugar.

Turns out glucose instability is a major cause of atherosclerosis, not high fat, or even high-cholesterol diets.

We just did a 40 year experiment on the public by pushing low fat diets since the 80's.

The obesity epidemic started with the flood of fat free foods in the 80s. It wasn't the only cause but it played a part.

Meh. In my case it's genes.

Mmm brinner.

Hate that you put the sweet on the same plate as the savory but you did a great job: it looks delicious.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

That French toast is pretty low on sweetness. The bread has no sugar, the egg wash gets a little sweetness from the cinnamon but the overall effect is more savory. And I'm definitely not creating more dishes to do by segregating sweet and savory.

Sometimes it’s good to mix

Every now and then I do eggs fried in maple syrup and it’s amazing (don’t eat this too often though)

So yummy. I've never had duck eggs, do they taste different from chicken eggs?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

We have chickens, ducks and geese. All the eggs taste exactly the same. The difference is the amount of taste. All the magic is in the yolk. A chicken egg is 30% yolk but duck and goose eggs are 50% yolk. And because of the size of goose eggs that means the yolk is the size of one and a half full chicken eggs. Duck eggs are better than chicken but don't come close to goose eggs.

Looks great! French toast looks custardy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

That's definitely the goal.

I made it out of purple heart and cherry.
