Your child will be asked to consume each of these breakfast options, or skip breakfast. Your child will be asked to complete subjective ratings on appetite and well-being at seven time-points throughout each session, followed by a lunch 2 hours after breakfast. Lastly, you will complete a food record describing what your child ate for the rest of the day of the study session.
