A new study of Australian breakfast habits by Galaxy Research has found that more than half a million Australians are coupling vegetables with cereal.
Popular combinations like courgette and oats are prompting a shift towards savoury bowls of cereal to start the day.
Cathy Gair, a food sensory expert at The Australian Institute of Food Science and Technology, told news.com.au that the trend may simply be responding to our sensory and nutritional needs:
"Satisfying our senses naturally increases the variety of foods we eat and is an evolutionary trait that helps us meet all our nutritional needs by ensuring we get a range of vitamins and minerals from an array of different foods."
The study also found that around two million Australians posted a photo of their breakfast on Instagram at least once a week; this probably explains some of the healthy choices to a large extent.
Would you try this? I'm adventurous with food but not so sure of this one...
