breakfast of champions
Sarcastic morning endorsement
Breakfast of champions is an ironic phrase for something consumed in the morning that's decidedly unhealthy or unconventional—beer, leftover pizza, cigarettes and coffee: He cracked open a Budweiser at 9 AM—breakfast of champions.
The phrase originated as a Wheaties cereal slogan celebrating athletic excellence, but popular usage inverts it to mock poor choices or self-deprecating morning routines.
