Currently discussing this with my Bulgarian partner, apparently this is a normal breakfast in tomato Europe, either with or without feta cheese. I'm from potato Europe and have never heard of this madness!

Adding carbohydrates (sugar) to your carbohydrates (pasta) is a great way to carb load your morning!

If you don't have time to make the sugar pasta, you might consider a bread sandwich for those busy mornings.

I like to go rye-rye-rye. I'm a rye guy!

Spaghetti bagel. Get all your meals in one go.

It's also a classic GDR/DDR dish, but East Germans developed tons of weird culinary combinations over there due to lack of ingredients. Another example would be sugar and cocoa powder on buttered bread as a nutella substitute.

Sounds disgusting.

This is criminal

I had milk soup as a kid, warm milk with sugar and very small pasta (stars or letters), if that counts.

But anyway, it's a weird question. Anything you want is a "normal" breakfast. I think it's Mongolia where they have an offal meat smoothie for traditional breakfast.

My grandma used to make spaghetti with cinnamon and sugar as a dessert. So it's at least that in my book and I do think a dessert makes a good breakfast, too ;)

wheat North America here, we put sugar on our wheat, rice, and corn here, so no reason it couldn't be on pasta.

If you wanted to be a fucking heretic

Potato here too.

Never heard about a pasta only with sugar.
It's always with something more, like a mixed strawberry or quark.

I will consider it as a dinner or supper then.

That's not pasta though but pastry dough. Or am I missing something here?

Y'all are about to make me start making weird culinary combinations.

[–] cerement@slrpnk.net 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

you gotta compete against things like a Full English Breakfast or Vegemite …

Or my own 1000 calorie butter drenched heart stopping artery clogging dishes.

Butter-drenched heart is probably pretty good.
