in europe (i lived in germany for a month btw :p) you can wake up, ride your bike 2 blocks away from your house, and pick up fresh baked goods--in america, you can drive your car 20 minutes to the nearest supermarket and buy shitty ass processed ass croissants that were shipped to your local market on a truck. but if you pop them in the toaster and eat them with some good jam (i'm partial to trappist blueberry preserves, thank you father 🧎♂️➡️🤲📿) it doesn't even matter. if you're a gymgoer like myself it's pretty good first thing cuz all those carbs get your cells flush with glycogen ykwim
