Pizza could be a better breakfast than sugary cereal, says expert

But for the record- Pineapple still doesn't go on pizza

If you've ever awoken from a thirteen-hour sleep, your head fuzzy, your body questionably dressed and your pocket full of shot vouchers and chewing gum, then you've also undoubtedly picked up leftover pizza and scanned it in shame. But guess what- apparently Pizza is a healthier breakfast than some cereal, as confirmed by a nutritionist. If your go-to breakfast cereal is something high in sugar like Cookie Crisp, Shreddies, or Coco-Pops, then your might be better off going for a slice of Pizza, says New York City nutritionist Chelsey Amer. She told ABC News: "Surprisingly, pizza can be a more balanced breakfast option than many sugar-filled breakfast cereals. "A slice of plain cheese pizza contains a balance of carbs, protein, and fat. A bowl of sugary cereal with low-fat milk is largely sugar and extremely carb-heavy." Dr Lauren Kelly, who looked into the truth of these claims for ABC, said: "Not that pizza is the best choice either, but people usually consider pizza a cheat food - the opposite of a healthy choice."
