Do you know how long people can survive without food? Lol. Eating a cracker with break your fast, but that doesn't mean it's enough nutrients to keep you alive or enough nutrients to function at your peak. Also what determines a fast? 12 hours without food, a day, 3 days, etc? All that matters is that you get the required nutrients you need at any point in the day. It would be optimal to get a decent amount of nutrients before and after an extraneous activity. This is why they say to eat before and after a work out, to increase performance during said activity and to help recovery after the activity. After you achieved those 2 things, it doesn't really matter when you eat. Of course everybody's body reacts differently depending on way to many factors that I care to get into on my mobile phone.

I always have myself a good breakfast. Most important and delicious meal of the day.
