Ancient Rome was one of the largest empires of its time, primarily based around the Mediterranean. Naturally, many of the eating and drinking habits of the ancient Romans were influenced by popular foodstuffs grown in the Mediterranean region, primarily wheat. Romans typically had three meals a day: jentaculum was their breakfast, prandium was the name for lunch and cena or dinner was the main meal. The food and drink served for the main course varied according to the Roman classes. The eating habits of rich Romans were lavish and grand when compared to those of an ordinary Roman peasant. Well-to-do Romans could afford the best and loved throwing dinner parties that lasted for hours. Personal preferences aside, the ancient Roman diet primarily consisted of a certain set of dishes.
