Currently discussing this with my Bulgarian partner, apparently this is a normal breakfast in tomato Europe, either with or without feta cheese. I'm from potato Europe and have never heard of this madness!

Adding carbohydrates (sugar) to your carbohydrates (pasta) is a great way to carb load your morning!
If you don't have time to make the sugar pasta, you might consider a bread sandwich for those busy mornings.
Potato here too.
Never heard about a pasta only with sugar.
It's always with something more, like a mixed strawberry or quark.
I will consider it as a dinner or supper then.
I straight up always thought cannoli were just manicotti with sweet filling, how much of my life is a lie?
I had milk soup as a kid, warm milk with sugar and very small pasta (stars or letters), if that counts.
But anyway, it's a weird question. Anything you want is a "normal" breakfast. I think it's Mongolia where they have an offal meat smoothie for traditional breakfast.
wheat North America here, we put sugar on our wheat, rice, and corn here, so no reason it couldn't be on pasta.
If you wanted to be a fucking heretic
It's also a classic GDR/DDR dish, but East Germans developed tons of weird culinary combinations over there due to lack of ingredients. Another example would be sugar and cocoa powder on buttered bread as a nutella substitute.
I mean... If you eat it for breakfast it's a breakfast... Is it a BALANCED breakfast? I'd say no.
My grandma used to make spaghetti with cinnamon and sugar as a dessert. So it's at least that in my book and I do think a dessert makes a good breakfast, too ;)
