Personally, I like to eat breakfast before I leave the house.....but....that's because of an experience I had about 8 years ago.
At the time I would ride to work and eat my breakfast there at about 10 am. I liked that and it worked fine until the day that I crashed on the way to work and broke my arm. Because I needed surgery I was not allowed to eat or drink. Because of where I lived, where there was no orthopedic surgeon, and because of the wait in the waiting room in the regional hospital, it was 12+ hours later before they told me that I wouldn't be having surgery that night and I could eat again. Because of other emergencies, etc, I did not actually have the surgery until almost 36 hours after the break, and had eaten only a small amount during the one evening. (side note: if you're ever waiting for emergency surgery and they say you can eat until midnight, have someone wake you up at 11:30 pm so you can eat and drink as much as possible....just in case your wait is longer than you expect. I sure wish I had!!)
I guess I just decided that anything can happen out there, I might as well be fueled for it. Hopefully, nothing like this happens to you or anyone else, but it has changed my habits.
Hugs and safe butterflies,
