Trivia
Edward Bernays , the father of public relations , was hired in the 1920s by a ham maker whose sales were declining to boost sales. Edward Bernays then conducted a survey among doctors with the result that they prefer a hearty breakfast. He then sent the results of this survey to around 5,000 doctors, stating that ham or bacon and eggs are a hearty breakfast. In the Czech Republic, under the onomatopoeic name "Hemenex", the dish is a popular breakfast offer in restaurants and cafes.
