Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is the first time we eat after sleeping.

What people eat for breakfast is usually different in every country.

In Spain, it’s common to have a biscuit and coffee, but in the US it’s common to have pancakes.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because it gives us the energy we need to start our day at work or school.
