The things people think we as an American breakfast are really outdated. Those were the things we ate when most of us had to labor in the fields or on the tracks. Pancakes are all carbs smothered in syrup, which exactly what was need for morning labor. We also don't traditionally have any meals between breakfast and lunch(if we even have lunch). This meant whatever you ate for breakfast had better stick to you. Americans today more often just eat things like cereal, fruit/yogurt, or bagel. The stereotypical American breakfast is still consumed, but it's rare.
