Fans of the full English breakfast, you’re in luck.
There are several ways to make a full English breakfast, but they usually consist of eggs, sausages, tomatoes, beans and mushrooms, among other things. It’s an English staple; even Americans admit it’s a delicious way to start the day.
A recent study revealed eating the dish could help men win a date. Researchers at the University of Montpellier found that men who eat breakfasts composed mainly of fats and proteins, like a full English, were more attractive to women.
Men who ate more refined carbohydrates in the morning – like croissants, waffles, pancakes, cereals, muffins and more – were less attractive to women.

The participants who ate the high-glycemic breakfast were more often associated with lower facial attractiveness for both men and women.
The researchers accounted for other factors in attractiveness, like actual age, perceived age, BMI, smoking habits and facial hair, and all the results stills held true.
“Our findings serve as a compelling reminder of the far-reaching impact of dietary choices not only on health, but also on traits having particular social importance such as facial attractiveness,” Berticat said.
