It's always strange to me when people use terms like "American-ism" in a negative way. All countries and cultures have their food traditions. I've always thought that British beans for breakfast is odd (yet delicious). By the way, couldn't eggs for breakfast be a "British-ism"? A currywurst in Germany doesn't make much sense to me at any time. And a wonderfully simple French omelette with chives and a side salad certainly makes a nice light dinner. I'm sure each of those countries would find certain foods inappropriate at certain times too.
But I agree, there's no shame in eggs for dinner or a currywurst for breakfast...eating what I want when I want is my favorite American-ism!
