It all depends:
Obviously in Quebec, you'd eat crepes, but only with local "pure laine" sirop d'erable all the while telling yourself that no one eats breakfast like you.
And while in the ROC you would eat an oat based cereal, it would of course have to unique in each location:
In NFLD, you'd eat oatmeal as described by SHH, but instead of sweetener, you'd put Screech on it. Just because.
In NS, you'd probably eat porridge because you're still clinging to your British history and how great Halifax could have been if only the National Policy hadn't been enacted.
In PEI, no one really cares what you'd eat for breakfast, but we all know you'd be eating it while watching some Anne of Green Gables spin off.
In NB you might eat oatmeal or farine d'avoine, who knows.
But for sure it would be Irving brand!
In Ontario, you'd only eat instant oatmeal with no flavouring, since we all know that Ontario has no history (everything is rushed) or local flavour.
In Manitoba you'd eat oatmeal blended with oats grown in Ontario and the West. You'd also eat them in a bowl that was once considered that largest "bowl in the west" but alas has been surpassed by many other bowls since the opening of the Panama canal.
In Saskatchewan, you live for "OATMEAL PRIDE" even though no one else really knows what that means.
In Alberta, you'd harvest the oats yourself using a combine that buns an incredible amount of natural gas and for every bowl you eat, you'd send 10 bowls to everyone else (with 8 going to Quebec, even though they only eat the crepes).
In BC, you'd eat only local, 110% organic oats, grown on a farm owned by someone across the pacific, all the while telling yourself that this is the best "oatmeal on earth".
