As I've said in another comment, there's many of these team building things at my business, all help to create a more cohesive and effective team, and not just breakfasts. I've written about some in my posts, you probably missed them.
Sweet for breakfast isn't something that's done in Australia much, maybe pancakes now and then. I guess, if a person can get away with it from an overall health perspective then fair enough though.
Eh eh actually I have read some and I am recovering some but I don't miss many by now :-)
Yes, in many countries breakfast is salty or mixed, only in Italy is it purely sweet, here it is really rare to see people who eat salty things.
In reality I believe that a salty breakfast, if made with the right foods, is healthier than a sweet one.
