Breakfast

Included in that article: "However, the major issue is that the subjects who regularly skipped breakfast also had the most unhealthy lifestyle habits," she said. "Specifically, these people were former smokers, heavy drinkers, physically inactive, and also had poor diet quality and low family income."
All of those factors put people at a much higher risk for cardiovascular disease. "I realize that the study attempted to control for these confounders, but I think it's hard to tease apart breakfast skipping from their unhealthy lifestyle in general"

In other words, like many population health studies, making any judgments about causation of single variables like skipping breakfast is a fool's errand.

I eat everything that is on that table (and then some) almost every day. Well, I don't eat the crackers or pineapple but I eat blueberries, strawberries and a whole grain of some other sort. Crackers are one of my trigger foods, so I would need the whole box, there. They don't have any meat or fats in that mix other than nuts and eggs. I do eat meat and seafood.

I also don't buy salad bags. A head of romaine or red leaf lettuce will be three to five hundred grams and it will keep for longer than three days if it's not cut up.

You do have to be a little bit creative and make a plan to eat that fresh produce and shop for it every three or four days.

If you move to a big city, the grocery stores DO sell cut up fruits and vegetables in to go cups and containers. They cost three times as much, though. And they use plastic which adds to the landfill and environmental problems. . .but someone will do your work for you if you're willing to pay for it.
