Our stomach has changed over the course of time and metabolism changed because of our food habit. Earlier hunter gatherer humans would go days without food and then eat larger meals. Just like wild animals did. But as we grew into food producers, when we shifted to agriculture we were having sufficient amount of food at our tables. Probably the concept of breakfast would have started in that agriculture era. Also raw foods which early humans took was replaced by cooked food. This also led to shrinking of digestive tracts as cooked food was comparatively easy to digest. Anyways the breakfast is an important meal of the day which gets your day started.
