BTW did you know you should first fry your bacon, then fry your eggs in the bacon grease, then put your toast in the pan to suck up all that goodness*(YMMV), and have it all as a sammich!

Compared to deep-fried margarine, hands down!

Now I’m craving deep-fried margarine with melted coconut oil on the side for dipping…

That's how my grandmother did it. Best fried eggs ever. I loved spending the night at her house and waking up to that. She let me drink black coffee as a kid as well.

Being from the 2nd most coffee drinking country in the world you start early. We Swedes have coffee flowing in our veins. I remember being at my grandfathers and having coffee at probably 5 years of age. How old do you think you were Eric when the addiction started?

I'm guessing I was about 7 or 8 years old, my friend.

I grew up on Gevalia and Löfbergs Lila coffee. It is funny to see Gevalia on the store shelves here in the US nowadays. I used to buy 12 500g packs of coffee in Sweden when I went home and bring with me here in my earlier days here, because I did not like the coffee here. Coffee has since become much better in the US.
