The saying ‘Breakfast of Champions’ can result in several meanings. It had been in the beginning used from the promotional slogan for the Wheaties brand of breakfast cereal that was known for showcasing popular athletes on its packaging and declaring that they had the cereal for breakfast, suggesting that it helped them grow to be champions. It soon became a relatively symbolic expression or jargon for almost any food or drink that would be generally regarded as being unhealthy. This is especially the case if one consumes it for breakfast or early in the day frequently. By way of example quite a few people joke about a morning ritual as the Breakfast of Champions is one thing the daily early morning ritual of needing a few cigarettes and a couple cups of coffee to obtain the fix of nicotine and caffeine in order to face your day. For other people it might imply the regular eating of a similar breakfast every day, like bacon and eggs. Some suggest that they need their Breakfast of Champions to properly awaken each morning and to get their bowels moving ahead of facing the day ahead.

Rice needs to be thoroughly washed. A good way to do this is to put it into a colander, in a deep pan of water. Rub the rice well with the hands, lifting the colander in and out the water, and changing the water until it is clear; then drain. In this way the grit is deposited in the water, and the rice left thoroughly clean.

The best method of cooking rice is by steaming it. If boiled in much water, it loses a portion of its already small percentage of nitrogenous elements. It requires much less time for cooking than any of the other grains. Like all the dried grains and seeds, rice swells in cooking to several times its original bulk. When cooked, each grain of rice should be separate and distinct, yet perfectly tender.
