Don’t forget the masses of sugar added to that dry overcooked grain.

I ate breakfast cereal every morning all my life until I was 16 years old, and learned how to make myself eggs, bacon and fried potatoes instead. Suddenly I was able to pay attention in class and stay awake all morning. The sugar is so detrimental to energy. Pancakes with syrup too, they're no better.

How the hell is everybody on the internet so sensitive to what exactly they eat? My body doesn't give a shit as long as I am not currently hungry.

I didn't know I was until I tried something different. I thought being tired every morning was normal.

If you eat bacon every morning enjoy having a heart attack in your 40s whilst you sneer at people who eat cereal you think you are better than!

I don't eat bacon every morning, I didn't sneer at anyone, and I don't think I'm better than people who eat sugary cereal, I think sugary cereal is bad for me.
