[Sca-cooks] Cooking period foods resembling modern foods

[Terry Decker]

When it was eaten breakfast appears to have been a little bread and beer (or
wine) to keep hunger at bay until lunch.  Coffee, tea and cocoa began
replacing beer during the 17th Century.  The "petit dejune" (if I remember
the spelling correctly) of selected breads, pastries, butter and jams served
with coffee, tea or cocoa and occasionally side meat may be an evolution of
the medieval breakfast.

Cold pizza and warm beer would probably fit right into the medieval idea of
breakfast.
