Most mornings people don’t have much time before work or school to make breakfast. 

Its a troublesome problem for many that still want something filling to have in the morning. But, in China, the perfect solution has been found! 

This simple, yet delicious, breakfast consists of warm soy milk “豆浆(dòujiāng)” accompanied by crispy, deep-fried twisted dough sticks “油条(yóutiáo)”. This tasty traditional breakfast is paired together for a reason. The creamy soy milk warms the belly and the crunchy dough sticks give a happy feeling of being full. Many feel that is it the perfect breakfast combination!
