Oh, now that Bryan's on his ketonosis no-carbs crash diet plan, we all
have to be as well?

Hmm, can't wait to hear what he says about my "baked" beans, brown
rice and smoked sausage breakfast! With a mango and cup-o-2% milk!

Now for that second cuppa! :-)

You can't think of anything worse than rice, milk and sugar? Gee, I
can. How about my oatmeal with brown sugar and heavy cream? Or french
toast fried in butter and topped with maple syrup?,

Bryan often speaks in hyperbole. AKA black and white thinking.

I wouldn't go for that. My mother always heated everything in milk,
claiming that water would dilute it. Have you ever been served
spaghetti heated in milk? It was served to me a couple of times, and I
ate a bit of it the first time. After that, I left it and threw it out
when it was served to me again.

My Chinese friends reheat rice by putting it in with the next batch to
be cooked. I just add a little water if it's dry and zap in in the
microwave. Buttered hot rice for breakfast is comfort food for me too.

Oh, good idea. I haven't had coffee for a while. Thought about it
yesterday, even got the cup out but ended up drinking water. I have
real cream too (used some in that chicken divan casserole I made last
night). Trundling off to make some coffee now....

You know how Bryan is. It's all "do as I say". He's going to rant
every time someone mentions a carb now that he's on a low carb diet.
I won't mind him educating me about carbs because I was desensitized
during the carb cramming phase that everyone went through when they
all pretended to be long distance runners; but I hate it when he goes
off the deep end.

We eat a lot of rice, but never for breakfast.

Now wait just a minute there! What about the cinnamon? And the smiley
face?

I used to love to put smiley faces on meatloaf. My daughter would get a
really big smile on her face. I used green pepper, but ketchup worked
if I didn't have the green pepper. That was a long time ago, though.
My daughter and I have graduated to happy faces on deviled eggs. We use
Sriracha, though.

My dad used to make that and called it rice pudding. Blech.

I love rice pudding, but mine is creamy. I should make some.

Why? Because King Bryan has spoken.

Twit, Eats Del Taco and Ragu and then attemps to make some sort of food
guru out
of himself.

And BTW about 2-3 billion Asians would
disagree with him about rice being "a
worse breakfast". Blubbering baffon.

Because Bryan's on a low to no carb Adkins-esque diet to drop some lbs
right now, therefore so should everyone else.

I've never been a fan of sweet rice, but that was something my
ex-husband used to do when there was leftover rice. I always made extra
for him just for that.

Because Bryan is on an extremely low carb diet right now. If he can't
eat it, then nobody else should be able to either.

Starting off the day with a really high carb, very little protein, and
almost no fat meal sets one up for a day of hunger. Besides John,
"ketonosis" is not a word.

Beans are very low GI, and the sausage is high fat and with a good
amount of protein. You got a bit pudgy when you were fat and married,
but you, one of my oldest and dearest friends, have never been
overweight, and have never had any sort of eating disorder that I am
aware of. I am clinically obese, but so many people are overweight.
Of course, our increasingly sedentary hours are a big part of that,
but I get exercise. High glycemic loads make people hungry.

I have my own repetitive meal, green beans with bacon crumbled into
them. Ketogenic diets work. Most folks can't stick with them. I had
a really tough time because I am a carb addict.
"My name is Bryan, and I am a carb addict."

Dietary fat does not cause you to crave more fat. Dietary protein
does not make you crave more protein. Carbohydrates are different.
They do cause positive feedback.

A raw egg and splash of soy sauce stirred up in rice. I've done this
a time or two for breakfast, but since I'm a big, fat, stupid American
I was hungry again in about an hour.

We frequently have rice for breakfast. The restaurants here serve rice
for breakfast. I can get rice for breakfast at McDonalds and
Jack-in-the-Box. I know, it's strange. The power breakfast of choice is
a hamburger on a bed of rice. Brown gravy is poured over this and then a
fried sunny side or over easy egg is placed on top. It's called a loco
moco. It's tasty but I can't eat stuff like that for breakfast much
these days.

OTOH, the idea of eating rice with milk is an idea that's foreign to
most Asians. My brothers-in-law will eat rice this way. They're white
people. I find it most amusing.

I sometimes eat rice for breakfast. But it's generally just plain. Once in
a while I will mix cheese in it.

I suspect that's because it's not an Asian thing, but a Mexican thing.
Arroz con leche, which is essentially what the OP was talking about (not
the fancy stuff with the short grain rice and the pudding-like
consistency, but the down-home, made in every home with leftover rice
sort), is fairly common in the part of California where I grew up. It's
something my dad grew up eating in the 50s and 60s and it's something my
brother and I ate regularly, too. Think of it as porridge and you're
going to be pretty much bang on.

Most Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans aren't really into milk anyway.
The idea of milk and rice makes my stomach a little queesy. There's
something about that...

Your oatmeal will stick with you far longer than the sugared rice, and
butter
and egg yolk are appetite suppressants.
The worst breakfast is one that sets you up to be hungry later by
delivering
a glycemic punch.

That's the kind I like to make. If I do it correctly, it's made
Danish style with milk from the very beginning but I usually use
leftover (plain) rice from the rice cooker and cook it some more with
milk and sugar.

It all depends on what you mean by "worse." Both your alternatives
sound better to me from a health perspective than rice, milk and sugar.
