The results are in... breakfast is being served!

In a quite thrilling poll, the ultimate truth as to what horses eat for breakfast has been discovered. A quite magnificent turn out of 2 voted in what was ultimately a split decision. The people decided that Horses either eat an almost full English breakfast first thing, or they eat Rabbits. There's most certainly two rather strong camps of opinion here, so we're best just letting them fight it out between themselves. No riots though.

To shoot the poll out of the water, research elsewhere suggests that horses eat neither of those. I couldn't be bothered reading the entire document but a quick search for "what do horses eat for breakfast" returns this blemish of knowledge...

How much does a horse eat for breakfast? 2-4 pounds of grain + 4 pounds of hay.

That may or may not be true, but being realistic here, its not in the same cuisine group as your average visit to a Little Chef or Rabbit serving restaurant. So it looks like everyone was wrong. I hope that news doesn't shock the world too much, and any riots in disagreement can be quelled before shots are fired.

For the record, this horse either skips breakfast (naughty) or eats toast. If they could get their own way though, they'd be eating coco pops.
