TOPIC OF THE MONTH: FOOD

Hello everyone!

The topic of the month is food, and I'd like your participation to see what we discover about our customs in this regard.

We will start with breakfast:
It should be the most important meal of the day not by the amount, but because of the time when we eat it and its utility. If you have a proper breakfast, you will begin your day less tired and will be able to pay more attention in class.

The Spanish breakfast has some variants:

1) The well-made breakfast consists of juice, preferably freshly squeezed orange, toast with olive oil and tomato with or without ham and a glass of milk with cocoa or coffee for adults.
2) Another common breakfast is usually cereal with milk with or without fruit or chocolate chips.
3) Milk and biscuits (How many? 3.5, 6, ... ...?) Or pastries (how many?)
4) Some people do not have anything for breakfast because they get up late, with just the time to go to school.

Is it similar or very different in other countries?

Join us and tell us what your breakfast is like. Ask your CAYAC partners what they usually have for breakfast and tell us what you usually do. The following questionnaire can be useful to you:

BREAKFAST Everyday - 3 times per week -1 time per week - never
HOUR AND TIME
Milk
Fresh Juice
Cereal
Biscuits
Pastries
Toast
Butter
Oil
Others

Don't forget to leave your comments! Thank you!!

In Belgium it's like Spanish breakfast.
-One glass of milk, fruit juice or milk with cocoa. (coffee for adult)
-A lot of people eat cereal with milk, slice of bread with chocolade or other(butter, cheese,...). Few people eat a fruit, some people eat milk and biscuits and some eat nothing.
The breakfast's very important. I think everybody should take it!

Belgian specialities:
There are somme specialities in Belgium.
The best know are the french fries, chocolate and beer (Kriek, Jupiler, Maes,...).
At dinner, we often eat a steak with french fries and salad but I'm vegetarian, so I don't eat steak and instead I eat egg.
There are some restaurants in Belgium so I eat a lot at the Chinese restaurant.
