Cereal is a sugar delivery vehicle, but juice is good as gold.
Right.

#4this article kind of lags for a while (at least several months) as in march 2015 Bloomberg business wk just ran a cover story of the declining cereal sales across the board:

and the last several paragraphs about "breakfast-denying" seem biased as there are more studies to support the importance of breakfast.

Since the article stated that 50% of adults account for cinnamon toast crunch I'm thinking it's because we're realizing that even if we do eat it, we're still hungry within an hour.
After building the habit of eating a solid breakfast, I noticed others followed the same pattern I did; eat two big meals and feel too nauseated in the morning to eat.
edit: the eating two meals part was during my cereal phase.

It's really freeing to realize you won't die if you skip a meal.

He probably means juicing, as in sticking fruits and veggies in a juicer and making something akin to a smoothie.

#9Obesity problem as well. I know some people don't like to hear it, but breakfasts can easily go 800 calories and up. You are starting off the day in surplus.

And an insulin spike.
