Just one answer each please.

1: scrambled eggs

I'm in a rush, I'll just take the eggs and go please.

30 Rice Crispies?

23 Marmalade - and how tasty did you make that sound....

10 Hash Browns, please.

29) poached eggs.

17 must be tea, but I always have Ricicles for breakfast, and because they are twicicles as nicicles, I have them for supper as well.

Grr, Alan - beat me as I was typing. Bear with me while I get another!

22 would be bacon. I'll have two Richards please.

26) Muesli

#4 - Eggs Benedict

7) Toast

15 Porridge

18 Sausage

29 - poached salmon?

Ha, just figured #21 - love it.

2) Orange juice?

24) Cornflakes

9-baked beans

27. Kedgeree

28 - Coffee

14: Pop Tarts.

22 Coco pops (but are they a foodstuff?)

Sorry I meant no. 20 Cocopops

dg writes: not 22, and not 20

16: sherry.

I heard the term 'sack' recently on the news: the new Poet Laureate says she wants her payment of a butt of sack in advance, as Motion is still waiting for his!

dg writes: sherry for breakfast?! It's not sherry.

16. Bagel

As breakfast time makes way for brunch,
there are eleven answers yet to be guessed:
3, 5, 6, 8, 11, 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, 25


6 Fried bread

4) Eggs Benedict? (hardly breakfast fare, I'd have thought)

19) - Allbran

5) pancakes

11) Mushrooms

I have visions of your online class room. There we all were sitting at our desks, our hands raised. Please Sir, is it xxxxx? 'Only one go, sonny Jim,' says teach. Awwww! 'But I know what xx is.' 'Pipe down.' Numbers of class still with hands raised but clueless - wishing it would all be over soon. Remainder of class having submitted one response drumming desks waiting for the slow coaches.

20) black pudding

*ick*

although technically, a sorbet and a pudding are two completely different things. I just thought I would point that out.

8 - Weetabix

3. Kippers

21 cocoapops

dg writes: but without the 'a', in case anyone's wondering how the clue works.

25: croissant

13. Waffles

12. is 8, 19, 21, 22, 24, 26, 30

As in cereal?

That's the complete smörgåsbord.

So, please provide explanation for how "Small label 9" becomes "Weetabix"

"wee" is another word for "small"
"tab" is another word for "label"
"IX" is the roman numeral for 9

Man, UK-style cryptic crossword clues are tough if you're not used to them.

Came to this too late, which was just as well as I could only get a handful of them anyway!

Very very clever, but far too taxing after one's just had a bank holiday! I can barely figure out what day it is still!

Brilliant quiz. I came here earlier when there were only a few left, and I couldn't get any of the remaining ones. It's especially taxing if, like me, you have no idea what cryptic crossword clues are on about.

Still laughing over 'Pop Tarts' 24 hours later!!! :D)
