Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, keeping us healthy and sharp.
But breakfast foods vary wildly from place to place.
Inspired by a HostelBookers.com post by Victoria Philpott and a Quora post, we took a look at some classic breakfast choices from countries around the world.
Whether it's bread and cold cuts in Germany or baked cheese pancakes in Russia, each country does their first meal of the day a little differently.
