Top Ten Breakfast Trends In 2011

The Food Channel® presents its Top Ten Breakfast Trends for 2011. The list is based on research conducted by The Food Channel in conjunction with CultureWaves®, the International Food Futurists® and Mintel International.

In our Breakfast Survey of Food Channel readers, one thing quickly became clear. Most of us still recognize breakfast as the most important meal of the day. Fully 95 percent of respondents viewed breakfast as very or somewhat important. About two thirds said they ate breakfast every day without fail and the same percentage said they eat breakfast at home, while nearly 25 percent eat breakfast at work. The ingredient eaten more often at breakfast than any other item: eggs (50 percent), with about 25 percent each saying they eat hot or cold cereal most frequently.
