Russian President Vladimir Putin usually tucks into a large omelet or a big bowl of porridge with some quail eggs and fruit juice on the side around noon. Newsweek reports that the ingredients are "dispatched regularly from the farmland estates of the Patriarch Kirill, Russia’s religious leader." Once he's finished his meal, he drinks coffee.

Breakfast usually isn't on the menu for Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk. When he does manage to squeeze in a morning meal, it's typically an omelet and coffee.

For Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, breakfast is determined by how the stock market is doing. Business Insider reported that every morning, his wife Astrid places a certain amount of change in his cupholder. $2.61 buys him two sausage patties, $2.95 snags him a sausage McMuffin with egg and cheese, and a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit costs $3.17. He goes for the more expensive McDonald's options when he's feeling "prosperous," according to Business Insider.

First Daughter Ivanka Trump told MyMorningRoutine.com all about her typical breakfast years before her father was elected to the White House. To avoid "decision fatigue," she said that she and her children eat either Greek yogurt and berries or oatmeal sprinkled with toppings like "chia seeds, berries, flax seed, goji berries, cinnamon, walnuts, and almonds." She also drinks a glass of water with a lemon and a coffee.

After his morning workout, Intuit CEO Brad Smith downs a protein shake and then heads to the office.

In a recent interview with his brother Mark, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos said he used to eat an entire tube of Pillsbury biscuits for breakfast. He said he kicked the habit when his wife MacKenzie urged him to check out the ingredients — but he still keeps up the tradition of not scheduling any morning meetings in order to relax with his family.

Talk show host Kelly Ripa waits until after "Live with Kelly and Ryan" wraps before she eats yogurt and granola. Beforehand, she'll drink a cappuccino with half-and-half and sometimes even a triple-shot skim latte.

Donald Trump isn't big on breakfast. According to the Chicago Tribune, he'll once and a while eat bacon and eggs. He told Fox News he liked cornflakes "right out of the fields of Iowa" before the 2016 presidential primary debate in Iowa. And his former bodyguard Keith Schiller said he would also occasionally pick him up an Egg McMuffin.

When it comes to breakfast, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey likes to chow down on two hard boiled eggs with soy sauce.
