[quote=Anonymous]If you think about it, typical food here in the US that gets pushed for breakfast is garbage.  It's often like eating nothing more than dessert for an entire meal in the day.  Waffles, pancake, crepes....?  What is this trash?  They're basically nothing more than rudimentary cake like batters that after cooked, you add a whole bunch of fat and sugar to - they're pretty much deficient of almost any nutritional value.  Cereals?  Highly processed trash that often contain tons of sugar. Bacon, sausages, biscuits and gravy, etc. combined with eggs.....cholesterol and fat bombs.  Hash browns and home fries....mostly empty calories loaded often times with salt and cooked in tons of oil.  You often feel very nasty after eating 'traditional' American/western breakfast foods. Why is it that we evolved to eat what are essentially desserts for breakfasts?  No nutrition, high in calorie, high in fat/cholesterol/sodium meals.  I remember going to Japan where they served traditional breakfasts consisting of a small piece of broiled fish, a little bit of rice, maybe some fruit, some kind of veggie, and a little bit of soup.  So many other places in the world just treat breakfast almost like any other meal where you'd consume foods with actual nutrition.  [/quote]
