The breakfast opportunity
We believe that breakfasts present a strong opportunity for growth for fruit, veg, and beans consumption. After all, it is one of three main meals per day and has come to be dominated by packaged goods and refined carbohydrates.
Let’s banish the beige… breakfast is better when it’s in colour.
Our Mission
This is an ongoing mission starting in May 2026 to increase fruit, vegetable and bean consumption at breakfast time by making breakfasts healthier, more colourful, enjoyable and achievable for families.
In the first year we are focussing on weekend breakfasts. Slower, shared more indulgent moments that feel special, and in strong contrast to the quick, boring, beige breakfast shovelled down on weekdays. Simple, fun and colourful dishes such as vegetable packed omelettes, huevos rancheros and bean burritos, pancakes and French toast with fruit, yoghurt bowls and “on toasts” such as with avocado, mushrooms, and tomatoes. Alongside food, we’ll encourage families to see weekend breakfasts as a moment to connect with each other. A “proper” breakfast becomes a cherished occasion.
Get Involved
This will be a social media and digital campaign. We have many social media influencers, chefs and nutritionists as well as media partners stepping up and expect to announce partners shortly. Here’s how you can get involved…
