A japanese 'western' breakfast would be something like a rice-filled egg omelet with some ketchup. .... bacon would be a luxury of sorts. I've heard noises that the dish where you fry an egg inside a piece of holed out toast is a treat of sorts. Sandwich bread is available but again, not massively used/seen.

Cereal isn't that rare.
In fact, we have Kellogg's Corn Flakes TV commercials.
And yes, Tony the tiger goes "GUUUUUREITO!" with Japanese accents.
It's just that not many types of cereals are around.
