You don't buy cereal or bread??? What are you eating for breakfast? A granola bar? I'd pass out before 10am if that's all I had! Seriously, if all I had to eat in a day was a granola bar, a salad, and a fake chicken patty, I would not be able to function. And I'd probably be fired from my job because I strangled the first person who tried to talk to me.
