Well... it is the meal that prepares you for the day. And really, the first meal of your day, regardless of the time it happens, is your 'break fast'.

- UncleSlacky 10y agoOr "elevenses".
- eru 10y agoPretty common in Germany. People eat at home with family, then leave for work or school, and have a small breakfast with co-workers later in the morning or during recess.

- CalRobert 10y agosed s/you/me/ I feel prepared by around 9 AM, but I don't have a meal until around 1. I respect that it works for you but the breakfast-shaming present in a society that already pushes people to eat when they're not hungry is absurd.
