I'm sorry, wtf!!! A gallon of paint???? Please OP, that's ridiculous. We use metric here in Japan, it's 4 liters of paint. Do some research and get it right next time!

Finnish breakfast:

Coffee, vodka and a cigarette.

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago

Everything a body needs.

Got offered this exactly by my friend's grandpa in Romania

If you want to have vodka for breakfast, bah gawd you can just do it, no need to apply to anything.

[–] SirSpud@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Vodka is made from potatoes

Potatoes contain most of the nutrients you need to survive

QED vodka is a balanced breakfast

Common misconception, but the towel dipped in mayonaise (often paired with a well aged Trapist) is very typical for a Belgian breakfast, not the Germans.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Also it's a 98 Daewoo Tico, not a Focus

[–] greyscale@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

Duolingo keeps beating me up about trapist beer, the gravensteen being older than the atomium and red devils loving stew and sprouts

This is clearly out of date. The traditional UK breakfast now is nothing because inflation means I can only afford 1.5 meals a day.

Just stop being poor, problem solved

[–] moody@lemmings.world 14 points 1 year ago

Have you tried being born rich? It would solve all your problems.

You might have to cut down on the beans, but you can still have a semi-traditional bowl of sadness for breakfast. Most important meal of the day.

[–] Afghaniscran@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Jokes on you, I'm having sadness for breakfast dinner and tea.

[–] bomberesque1@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Have you seen the price of baked beans lately?

[–] kbotc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Just do breakfast and bangers and mash for dinner, skip the bangers.

Boom: 1.5 meals. Just worry about potato crop failure.

France: coffee and nicotine cancer sticks

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

Accurate. Also known as a champion's breakfast.

[–] Lemmylefty@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

If a German has leftovers he helpfully leaves them atop pool chairs to feed the hungry.

Greece: the cheapest coffee the world has ever seen and Καρελια cigarettes

[–] SternburgExport@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago

That‘s a common misconception. This ain‘t a 1998 Ford Focus, it‘s a 2010 Ford C-Max.

[–] atlasraven31@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Germans eat Bröt mit Bröt

[–] Philipp@lemmy.loomy.li 4 points 1 year ago

Brötchen for the first breakfast, Brot for the second.

[–] Getawombatupya@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Germans- Bread, cheese and some variety of ham

[–] Getawombatupya@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago

Turkish breakfast

[–] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I understand the first two. I guess I don't get the rest.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

It's random so it's funny holds up spork

[–] tiredofsametab@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Drat, I've made coffee instead of paint again. One day I'll get it right.

[–] covert_czar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Why can't i relate anything i'm from india and a zoomer

[–] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 3 points 1 year ago

Butterbrot. You know where.

Spain: bull horns and dirt.
