Hot Breakfast Month

This campaign emphasizes the importance of starting each day by eating a healthy breakfast. While breakfast can be healthy without being hot, the colder days of February are a great time to enjoy a hot breakfast.

Breakfast literally means "break the fast" after not eating since the night before. People who eat breakfast usually perform better in school and on the job.
