Do You Skip Breakfast as Much as Everyone Else?

If, as the saying goes, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, then why do so many people skip it so frequently?

According to a survey of 2,000 adults by electrical-goods firm Phillips, 33 percent never eat breakfast at all. Another 30 percent munch during their way to work or school, and the remaining 37 percent sit down and eat a proper morning meal.

Phillips also calculated that it takes eight-and-a-half minutes to eat breakfast.
