THERE are many reasons to rethink breakfast.

1. Great article.

I rarely eat what is considered a "traditional" breakfast. Why limit oneself. ;)

2. I DO, but I think I'll change now!

3. I agree, nice article.

It's time to rethink breakfast. I eat more cereal than I should, but it's something fast and easy to eat at work. Too many carbs and too little protein in my breakfast choices.

4. I worked in Oakland, CA with a young woman from Equador many years ago.

She said that there were three things about Americans that she did not understand.

In the US, she said, the poor people live down on the flatlands and the wealthy people live in the hills. In her home, poor people lived in the hills and wealthy lived on the flats nearer the water.

She did not understand people deliberately wearing 'blusher'. To her, rosie cheeks were and indication of being 'low class', an Indian from the high mountain elevations where, the altitude and rare oxygen caused the people to have red cheeks.

And she did NOT understand American cold cereal! She said the flakes of mashed grain with cold milk on them seemed impossible to like. She said, she LOVED American (old fashioned) oat meal. I said that she'd like Irish oatmeal even better, I got her some and she was crazy about it.

I asked what she would eat for breakfast in Equador. She said, generally a hot broth with a piece of chicken in it, a couple-inch peice of corn-on the cob, with an egg dropped in to softly cook. That sounded very good to me, and much more logical than cornflakes in cold milk!
