الملخص:Food is a major component for survival to man or animal. It is necessary that we eat a healthy and balance diet to lead a healthy life style (Spears, 2011). Nowadays, people across the global have different eating habits. Moreover, there are some factors that contributed to the eating habits. For examples money, health conscious, family's background and education are factors that contributed to the eating habits. "Malaysia needed more dieticians to promote healthy eating habits among the society", Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said, (Bemama, 2010). In his speech, he also said that "in our hospitals, the current ratio is approximately one dietician to 115 beds, but the ratio for the more developed countries is one dietician to 50 beds". This phenomenon indicated that Malaysia needed more dieticians in order to promote healthy lifestyle. As we know, Malaysia is one of the developing countries, and we are changing rapidly, where people tend to choose any food and beverages without considering the ingredients, due to time constraints (Kok, 2011). Same goes to the campus life. Most campus students always missed their breakfast and they preferred to have lunch instead. These are some of the issues that we looked into, as the reason why most campus students skip their breakfast. There are some factors that contributed to the eating habits among universities students.
