Residents of Abu Dhabi, Osaka and Zurich can earn enough in less than five minutes to buy their first meal of the day, according to the Bloomberg Global City Breakfast Index. The situation is significantly harder in less affluent cities, where, for example, it takes Ghanaians in Accra closer to an hour, and, in Caracas, where inflation is soaring, almost nine hours. Bloomberg says Cairo has the most affordable basic breakfast, as it defines it, at USD 0.35 because of food subsidies. However, when matched as a share of daily income, Cairo is among the cities where it takes the longest to earn enough money to pay for it, costing more than 4.4% of the daily income.
