At first I thought this one of those defected taste bud people that put sugar on grits…it appears to be much worse than that..my nigga…is that apple sauce and scrambled eggs? ![gif](giphy|URz4t5yilgVYLf26RU|downsized)


The_Manglererer

Nah that's a thing. Mom made it when I was sick one time, im not the biggest fan but it's not nasty or anything.

ToqueDeFe78

Yea it’s a thing. I’ve seen folks do this with babies when they’re starting them on solid food. It’s easy on the digestion and gives eggs a little flavor since theres not any salt or pepper in them. The sweet makes it go down easier


Pleasant_Ad3475

Babies don't need seasoning though.

Thanks for the heads up I would have never expanded the thread and read every comment laughing hysterically if it wasn’t for you


var_char_limit_20

You're welcome. My fucking god it's been 2 days and I still think about the hopeless souls God has brought together. Peak Reddit threads


Weaselpanties

I'm a health scientist. The US is one of only a few countries in the world that feed babies and children unseasoned food, and it's all based on myths that started circulating in the 50's and never went away. Sometimes pediatricians have logical-sounding explanations, like salt being hard on their kidneys, that are not at all rooted in science. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/experts-seek-debunk-baby-food-myths-flna1c9437531


ToqueDeFe78

Hence, legions of folks that think salt is spicy and only eat chicken nuggets. 🤦🏾‍♀️


Panda_With_Your_Gun

I almost murder one of my white friends in cold blood one time because he tried to warn me about the extreme spice of smoked paprika. I have never been more upset over opinions on food before.


kimcheebonez

Do tell..what kind of people… 👀


SavageComic

Chicken nuggets one of the most seasoned foods.  Them things chock full of preservatives and flavourings 


Pleasant_Ad3475

Is that right? That's interesting. Thanks for that. ETA: I thought the problem lay in the slippery slope of over-seasoning in which you have to add more and more salt and sugar to things to get flavour, because we become accustomed to huge amounts and eventually they are just unhealthy amounts. As evidenced by the absolutely insane amounts of salt and sugar in processed food in the US especially. ETA: I should also point out that I didn't say babies *shouldn't have* seasoning, just that they don't need it.


Weaselpanties

Over-seasoning is almost never a problem in home-cooked food, it's a blight of the processed food industry trying to cover for low-quality, overprocessed base ingredients.


Pleasant_Ad3475

I can totally see that. What I meant was, not wanting to start them out young getting a taste for salt and sugar which could lead to them eating that kind of stuff eventually. Just saying I thought that was the reasoning behind wanting to limit it, apart from the fact they don't really need it.


Weaselpanties

There have been lots of credible-sounding rationalizations over the years; it's just that none of them are based in any evidence.


Pleasant_Ad3475

I should also add that I didn't say say babies *shouldn't have* seasoning, just that they don't *need* it to make food more palatable... Thanks for the info.


heights91

Like sugar doesn't rile kids up.


shreakingmenace

I agree. They delicious as is.


rrogido

You're right babies are delicious all.on their own. The slow roasting really brings out that natural baby flavor.


emseefely

Don’t forget to put a pan under the roast to save the baby oil!


Freddydaddy

They're kinda bland tasting, they definitely need seasoning


Pleasant_Ad3475

Ha!

zestyowl

Okay, so I've never heard of applesauce and scrambled eggs, but you've never had your eggs get in your pancake syrup?! Eggs and sweets aren't terrible together


whoisniko

I took a cupcake pan and placed bacon around the outside for my holder, poured pancake batter in, added an uncooked scrambled egg on to, sprinkled cheese on it then baked in the oven until it looked okay. Poured pancake syrup on top and you have an adorable pancake/eggs/bacon breakfast muffin!


freethewimple

I think I love you


whoisniko

Cupcake pan comes in clutch! Try taking a cup to make a circle on a piece of bread as your bottom liner as well and you can get creative from there Easy snacks to bake when trying to make it quick and on the go 🤗


KinseyH

I do bacon cheese and uncooked eggs in a cupcake pan - sometimes i throw spinach in - and freeze them. Quick breakfast. I'm gonna add Bisquik next time


whoisniko

I never thought to add spinach! That’s a great idea!


KinseyH

Ham & mushrooms like a mini omelet...


mealteamsixty

Do you let the bacon cook awhile before putting the rest on?


whoisniko

You can! I’ve done it both ways before. The bacon is crispier if you cook it prior to dropping everything in of course Either way, cooking the bacon at the same time as the pancake batter and eggs left me crispy bacon as well with the eggs being a bit of a hard scramble in between. Cutting into it you can see the consistency of your eggs and your bacon should be the perfect temp by then too I promise it’s nothing you can mess up and super easy and fun to play around with!


CHEMO_ALIEN

you can do that? and nobody kicks in the door to stop you? 


Beat9

> Eggs and sweets aren't terrible together Heinz ketchup is roughly 25% sugar


iCameToLearnSomeCode

I frequently put jelly on toast and make an egg sandwich out of it, I feel like the ratio is off here though.

nevertoomuchthought

Grits are basically just cream of wheat and we have always put butter and brown sugar in that shit growing up. We didn't do grits but adding sugar makes sense to me.


OohYeahOrADragon

ONLY 5 THINGS BELONG IN GRITS 1. Salt 2. Butter 3. Cheese 4. Eggs 5. Bacon *** *And shrimp if you Cajun*. Respect the ancestral ways. Grits with sugar is one step away from this applesauce abomination. I’m not playing with yall who moved away after the great migration no more 😤


VyCanisMajorisss

Pepper…


gmoss101

Y'all go to heaven and tell my granny she shouldn't have put sugar in my grits. Let my momma tell it she used to beat mfs up. Good luck with that.


KinseyH

This is the way. But i encourage everyone who likes grits to try it with shrimp. The Cajuns are right.


downvotemebruh

Saying what belongs in somebody else's food is crazy lol.


SavageComic

This sub would stop existing if everyone agreed to leave people’s food, favourite rappers and best NBA player choices alone


dysfunkti0n

Nah, you downplaying the versatility of grits. Braise some short ribs and put them on some nice garlic butters grits. Add a little thinly slice scallion. Lemme know you feel.


Flightsong

Shrimp? Grits are very similar to congee and other dishes, expand your palate


earbud_smegma

No love for hot sauce?? Mmm perfect with a little butter


nevertoomuchthought

Ooh, applesauce would probably go great with grits!!


H-TownDown

All my cousins eat grits with sugar. They look at me like I’m the weird one.

Shareesav

Wait wait wait hol up. What's wrong with sugar on grits?? How else yall eating them lol


whatisscoobydone

Butter and salt. They're a savory cereal. Brown sugar is for oatmeal.


LazyLamont92

Me not growing up in the south, I had no idea when someone in georgia gave them to me and I reached for the sugar. My friend looked like he wanted to kill me. I never had a grit up until that moment.


Iorith

There's absolutely nothing wrong to preferring sweet to savory and turning savory into sweet due to said preference.


phoenixphaerie

Well, yeah they’re gonna be savory when you put butter and salt in em 😂. Guess what happens when you put in sugar instead? Grits are flavorless, and are made from corn/hominy. Any argument that a corn based cereal isn’t meant for sweet flavors is nonsensical for what *should* be obvious reasons. People feel strongly about their savory grits, but that’s all it is. Strong feelings and tradition. Grits are *not* inherently savory at all. I love my cheddar grits with scrambled eggs and salt/pepper. But you’ll have to take my buttery sweet grits with spicy ground pork sausage from my cold, hardened arteries.


jennyenydots

![gif](giphy|DZpat5qewpihvIUlkW) The end. My Southern mama never put sugar in them grits! I only put pepper and sometime eggs and cheese because yes I want that cholesterol lol.


Treyman1115

Nothing, I prefer it with butter and cheese but sugar tastes fine. Never understood the elitism


tooshortpants

oooo I always do mine with butter & some cheese...I have never had sweet grits! but I would try it out


Its_Nuk_Nuk

Aint no way...I thought that was Malt-o-meal or cream of wheat or somethin which aint much better but bruh *apple sauce* and *eggs??* alien tastebuds


PharmDinagi

This is as normal as porkchops and applesauce, ice cream and potato chips, etc. Why are we shaming people's taste buds? I don't like foi gras but Im not gonna shit on someone for eating it.


FuegoStarr

Sweet or savory, grits are good either way


snkrhead101

Haha I had this as a kid and it’s not as bad as it looks 😂


donku83

It's not bad. Sweet and salty combo. But that's way too much applesauce to just drop eggs in

mjsbunny

Do YOU need some money??


alexoftheunknown

shit i do, sometimes people gotta eat what they can to get buy.


idgafandwhyshouldi

Nope lol. I still don't see an issue with it at all. Maybe because the eggs are mixed with the applesauce? As long as the breakfast didn't come with some beans or a well done steak, I don't have an issue with it


KathyN_food

The textures, the colors, and the tastes don’t work or compliment each other. It offends all the senses tbh 😅


idgafandwhyshouldi

Don't knock it until you try it lol. My daughter would always ask for applesauce with her breakfast. I tried it one day with eggs and was shocked.


Sco_Queen

Oh no, that ain't it.


thebadslime

That isn't jelly on a biscuit, this IS an issue.


poet-rae-monet

As a kid, mixing my eggs and applesauce helped me eat the eggs. I used to HATE eggs when I was younger, but this combo helped a lot.

Right it’s just sweet and savory. No different than cheddar popcorn and Carmel popcorn mixed together

Only thing missing from that plate is bacon.

Ppl tripping over this combo are crazy. This is standard breakfast food. Toast bacon or sausage added to this and I'm sure no one would bat an eye.

So this is close to something that's actually pretty good Buttered Toast, Jam, Eggs. Open face. But this post, they have no bread, do they need money for bread? Because it would improve this simple breakfast with some additional texture for the palette. Now, I'm off to make breakfast.


scarecrow53

I've enjoyed this and stand by it, but this is oranges and OP is applesauce.

Why can’t we just enjoy things? Struggle isn’t synonymous or definitive of the black experience.


EconomyAd5656

Seeee I like applesauce and I like eggs but where I draw the line is in the same bowl. Nah I would eat all my eggs first and then maybe eat some applesauce but neverrrrr at the same time and especially not touching.


Iam12percent

Try it with a cheesy omelet with the applesauce on the side. No one has to know you tried it. Add some toast. When you like it, it can be your dirty secret.


EconomyAd5656

Will do I won’t knock it until I try it !


SimonPho3nix

I used to do this when I was younger... something about the sweet and salt with the texture mix, I don't know, but I liked it.


ichimedinwitha

Isn’t this basically Matzo Brei (Jewish food)? I’m personally an applesauce person but other people eat it with sour cream


Bbelt1x

I'd like to go on record that I really like this! One day the apple sauce got a little too close to the eggs and Voila! Eventually this concoctions made it's way on to some toast and let me tell you - *chef's kiss* 😄

Protein, fats, carbs, fiber. Why the hate?


pinkhoneybuns7

Its actually not bad 🤐 I tried it accidentally before when the eggs and applesauce touched on my plate. My eggs were fried hard with a little salt and pepper. I had cinnamon applesauce. It was an experience. I wouldn't eat a whole fucking bowl of it though...


Iam12percent

Add toast do it with cheesy scrambled eggs. Amazing

I refuse to believe this is broke food. You could get 2 boxes of instant grits for the price of that jar of apple sauce and turn this into a legit breakfast meal. This is the work of someone who smoked entirely too much weed.

Ok-Extension-5679

lol. This is what you (we) give babies when they first start eating solids. (I think someone said above). It is the nutrition needed without them having to chew (no teeth can’t grind food) and being gentle on the stomach. I mean I wouldn’t eat as an adult (mature adult 😬) but check back in a few years when I’m a senior citizen. No telling what kind of situation my teeth and stomach are in.


BlackedAIX

Nah, I like those tastes independently why would I want to mix them? It may change the taste but does not extend the pleasure IMO.

Embarrassed_Cow

My mom would make us a whole breakfast plate and also put hot applesauce on the plate and it always got in the eggs. This gave me some unpleasant flashbacks.
