1. Are you allowed to eat sunchips for breakfast?
2. Recognizing that you are, in fact, eating sunchips for breakfast regardless--are you allowed to call it breakfast since it's technically 11am? (Based on the operational definition McDonalds provides for breakfast: that it ends at 10:30am.)
3. Does the fact that the sunchips are the first thing you've eaten all day reinstate them into the term 'breakfast' since (even though it's no longer breakfast in McDonald's-land) they are accomplishing their root purpose of 'breaking the fast'?
4. Can it be true that as long as you've obtained the food prior to 10:30am, it is still definable as 'breakfast' based on the nature of the food...regardless of its time of consumption?
5. Which begs the question, even if you've obtained your sunchips at 8:30am, can they be called breakfast, since they are not a 'breakfast food?'
6. Is the matter further confounded by the fact you ate waffles for dinner last night?

you're thinkin' way too much about this sunchip thing.
It can definitely be considered breakfast. I base this on the fact that you are operating on the American concept of breakfast. If you go to England you will eat baked beans on toast for breakfast...it can get more interesting as you move through Africa and onto Asia. Also, working in the Middle East hot tea was delivered to my desk everymonring upon arrival at 8am. Sometime between 9 and 11am breakfast would arrive with another round of tea--pita, lebaneh, and cucumber sandwich. It is breakfast if you want it to be!
ahhh--pam crane, thou art wise.
