This report by DIMSDRIVE Research into breakfast goes into far more detail than is healthy, I suspect! The fieldwork was conducted over three months ago, but it didn’t get published until last month. It’s also a subject that has been covered before on this blog.
Demographics
Between the 30th of April and 8th of May 2008 7,965 members of the DIMSDRIVE monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 52.7% of the sample were female, 1.0% in their teens, 13.4% in their twenties, 36.1% in their thirties, 29.9% in their forties, 13.4% in their fifties, and 6.2% aged sixty or older.
I eat breakfast in every day (barring horrendous oversleeping!), but my special treat once every couple or months or so is to head down to a local English-style cafe and indulge in their full English breakfast, or if I’m running a little late, an early afternoon tea.

With the government pushing rice for breakfast using an “image character” that looks like a mutated Contac character filled with polystyrene balls, and with the price of bread rising rapidly, perhaps next time that MyVoice performs a survey into breakfast we will see more people switching to rice.
Demographics
Over the first five days of May 2008 14,519 members of the MyVoice internet community successfully completed a private online questionnaire. 54% of the sample were feamle, 2% in their teens, 14% in their twenties, 38% in their thirtiesm 29% in their forties, and 17% in their fifties.
Weekday breakfast for me is toast and some museli, most often, washed down with a little water in under fifteen minutes on the whole. Weekends are more interesting as I have time to eat more slowly, and have salad, instant soup or freeze-dried miso, and an egg. Having just typed that, I realise this survey would have been more interesting if they’d split weekdays and weekends into separate questions.

MyVoice recently published the results of their second survey into the most important meal of the day, breakfast.
Demographics
Between the 1st and 5th of May 2007 15,239 members of MyVoice’s internet community completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 54% of the sample was female, 2% in their teens, 18% in their twenties, 40% in their thirties, 26% in their forties, and 14% in their fifties.
During the week my breakfast is a couple of slices of bread in the toaster and a fermented milk drink, eaten every day by myself at far too early an hour. Weekends is similar but with the addition of salad and eggs, and currently since it is in season, mint tea picked from our garden.
