J.J. Watt Loves Breakfast More Than You Do
In fact, if you don't love breakfast, you've got a problem with the Texans star himself. He let that be known in a lighthearted butpassionate Twitter rant Tuesday night.
Breakfast for any meal, any time of the day. Bacon & Eggs are good at any hour.

I'm just gonna be honest, if you don't like french toast, waffles, bacon & eggs, pancakes, etc. We're gonna have a tough time being friends.

@DuaneBrown76 anytime, day or night. Breakfast food is always right. #ThatUnintentionallyRhymed

Confronted, Watt refused to back down.
@HoustonChron you're a newspaper, you don't eat food... But sometimes I read you while eating breakfast. So we're cool.

I go to bed looking forward to breakfast. Goodnight world. Dream of breakfast burritos, biscuits & gravy and anything with bacon.

Watt's dreamscape must be an endless greasy spoon diner where the breakfast plates keep on coming. But these food fantasties are a far cry from Watt's self-described breakfast menu. Last year, he shared his two staple breakfasts that he starts with every morning when in training mode. You read that right — he has two breakfasts every day.
Breakfast No. 1: Five eggs, hash browns, whole wheat pancakes, banana, orange juice, water and an apple.
Breakfast No. 2: Five eggs, oatmeal and wheat toast.
Note the lack of bacon, waffles, French toast, or general happiness. So either Watt was breaking his training diet Tuesday night, or he's merely dreaming of a world in which such breakfast goodness isn't off-limits.
Perhaps he's even subtweeting his trainer. Either way: It's the offseason, J.J. Have a stack of waffles and don't beat yourself up over it.
