(Undated) – They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but it may not actually be that important for adults. A new study found that adults who skipped breakfast were just as capable of problem solving and paying attention as those who ate a meal. People who did miss a meal did perform a little worse while looking at pictures of food.

Children on the other hand, still get a boost from breakfast. The study was published in the journal Psychological Bulletin.
