Bread was like a superfood for the ancient Romans. It was made from wheat, and they ate it every day, sometimes even more than once! Rich people had fancy bread with honey or cheese inside, while poor people got plain, hard bread. Bread wasn’t just food; it showed who you were in society.
Examples
- A rich Roman eats honey-sweetened bread like it’s dessert.
- A poor Roman gets a hard, plain loaf for breakfast every day.
- Children learn to eat their bread with cheese on top.
