We can get it at our local supermarket, I wonder if you could get it at an Asian supermarket or Mexican - apparently Mexico is one of their largest selling markets.

Weekends are a fry-up with 'veggie' baked beans (i.e. no pork fat) and we now bake our own bread. I find the bacon ok as long as it's not too fatty (which is hard to tell in the packaging here).
Weekdays are toast (from the home made bread of course) or cereal. Can't believe they've only just discovered Crunchy Nut Cornflakes here! My wife wishes we could get Weetabix![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Nothing beats a big traditional Turkish breakfast, which I have about once a month: home made flat bread (fresh from the oven), feta cheese (Bulgarian is the best), Kalamata olives, tomato slices, cucumber slices, thick plain yogurt, sour cherry jam, and very sweet hot tea to wash it all down.
Hubby also likes me to include a few turkey sausage links, and sometimes I'll make a couple of hard-boiled eggs as well.
MMMMM.

A tad OT: Arthur Frommer's first book was entitled "Europe on $5 A Day." The $5 was the budget for lodging and food. I recall that one of Frommer's "secrets" was to not eat an American style breakfast -- with one exception -- the English breakfast while in the UK.
Inasmuch as the then traditional American breakfast was heavy on trayef, I did not grow up eating it. For me, a full breakfast included fish [lox, herring, etc]. However, when I went into the US Army in 1970, they still served that breakfast. I would say that the English breakfast differs more in style with the addition of fried tomatoes.
A few years back, we took a cruise in Alaska. I remember the long breakfast lines with the plates piled high. In particular, I remember with extremely overweight people just piling on the bacon. For my self -- I would hit the side bar with cereal, milk, juice, coffee -- I would politely ask if I could cut in line just to get some lox or herring.

You've no idea how pleased I was to see that they were finally trying Crunchy Nut Cornflakes on the masses again... First found some around 2004 but they disappeared from the shelves shortly afterwards.
Reappeared round this way a couple of months back and I mostly like a bowl of them with some fresh fruit or a bacon sarnie at the weekends.
Don't have time to sit down for brekkie during the week so a granola bar or something with a large latte at my desk.
Favorite dine out lately is Eggs Benedict.

Except for the home made flat bread (fresh from the oven), feta cheese (Bulgarian is the best), Kalamata olives, tomato slices, cucumber slices, thick plain yogurt, sour cherry jam, and very sweet hot tea, that sounds good.
Delete the turkey sausage from the hardboiled eggs and I'm in!

Greek yogurt with fruit or oatbran with fruit. Greek yogurt is manna from heaven, I love the stuff.

Mid week I eat cereal & a banana, on a weekend we eat muffins or I will make pancakes.
I still even now do not get the appeal of waffle/pancakes bacon and syrup all on the same plate!
