Italy is not a country for breakfast. Our breakfast is usually light and delicious. Most people drink coffee: it may be espresso, coffee brewed in a mocha pot, and sometimes other kinds of coffee; It may be black, with sugar or a little milk. Some people prefer milk: adults usually add a dose of coffee. Children may eat white chocolate (with a little sugar), cocoa powder (you can call it hot chocolate in English, which is more like a light pudding to us), or roasted barley. Some people like to drink tea, usually with only one slice of lemon and no milk.

A bowl of hot milk, some coffee and stale bread is a very popular breakfast.

Many people only eat the "liquid part" of breakfast; Most people also eat something, the most common is carbohydrates. These biscuits can be stale bread (usually dipped in caffellatte coffee), fresh bread with jam (not baked), and sometimes a little butter, light biscuits (not as greasy or super sweet as American biscuits), or dry bread.

Coffee, a freshly baked bread roll and a few spoonfuls of jam: Italian breakfast.

Some people like to have breakfast in local bars, usually coffee shops in Italy. When you need to go to work, this is a way to speed up your work, or a luxury on Sunday. Breakfast in this bar usually includes espresso (plain or macchiato), cappuccino or roccino (a drink between espresso and cappuccino) and snacks, which are usually croissants with jam, custard or chocolate.

Breakfast: cappuccino and croissants.

Now, there are a few things you may need to pay attention to:

Many times, apart from fruit, breakfast is the only dessert we eat in a day, so we won't eat too much sugar in a day;

Most Italians eat dinner very late, about 8 pm, that is, a few hours before going to bed. This means that most of us won't feel hungry when we get up in the morning. Once we have snacks, we can wait until lunch, which is the first meal of the day.
