American breakfast is bad for you.

Most American breakfast is full of sugar, starch, cholesterol and cooking grease.  This comes from borrowing European cooking and utilizing the most abundant resources in America.  Fried eggs, omelettes, french toast, buttered toast, buttered muffins and biscuits, pancakes, waffles, bacon, fried potatoes, hashbrowns- all foods that are full of fat and grease that lead to high cholesterol and increase risk of a heartattack among other health problems.  Foods made of white flour and starch are nutritionally useless empty carbohydrates that decrease long term energy, and are further covered with fat and sugar as toppings.  Cereals are high in processed or refined grains that are the nutritional equivalent of white sugar.  Food coloring and preservatives don't help.  Using fruits as a substitute for breakfast means a sugar spike will give quick energy but not long term energy to last through the day.  Nearly all traditional American breakfasts are a bad choice, leading to weight gain, heart problems, and diabetes. 

The American breakfast could just as easily consist of the same thing as lunch or dinner and would be more nutritionally sound.  Some countries just have a light salad for breakfast.

If you haven't consumed any nourishment after all that work done, you will suffer the consequences such as reduced ability to concentrate, reduced ability to learn, and a general lethargic feeling.
