Bread is bad for you

Is other food healthier? Sure. But most Swiss people love bread for breakfast. We rather give up on eating a dessert/snack on afternoons. Many people generally reduce the amount of food they eat, or they eat more healthy food for lunch/dinner instead, to compensate the bread consumption in the mornings.
Also, while bread certainly isn't very healthy, it's still healthier than all these sweet pastries people in the US apparently eat every morning. The cinnamon bagels here in NYC contain probably more sugar than I eat on an average day at home.
What I wanna say is: it all comes down to what you eat during the whole day. I'd say that the people in Switzerland are generally quite healthy.
