About the day
Better Breakfast Day falls on 26 September each year in the United States, during Better Breakfast Month.
Nebraska Extension at the University of Nebraska Lincoln notes that skipping breakfast does not reliably save time or cut calories, and that a healthy breakfast can help people make better food choices through the rest of the day.
It suits cereal and breakfast food brands, cafes and breakfast restaurants, nutrition and health organisations, schools, and food media.
