what do cariocas eat for breakfast?

Answered by Geraldine Denise Kuss , Rio, Brazil

Brunch is big now, where you have a buffet with a huge selection of fruit and food. of all types including scrambled eggs and dieffernt types of bread. This is available all over Rio
But, generally, the average person eats a little fruit, perhaps papaya, with French bread and butter , ham/cheese and café au lait.

Bread with butter, some cold cuts, such as ham, mortadela, cheese. Also, coffee, fruits, milk, tea, yogurt, etc

A "carioca" is not only a person born in Rio, but also those who live in Rio and believe that they are the luckiest people in the world.
So, a typical carioca guy eat milked coffee with bread and butter, as Jimmy said (he is a carioca born in Scotland).
My mom eats fruits. You will finds lots of them for a reasonable price.
I go for bacon and eggs. Fruit juice and coffee (without sugar).
Rio is a very democratic place...

Bread and butter, coffee with milk and loads of sugar, and maybe juice.
Splurging cariocas might top it with fried eggs, bacon, ham, bread w jam etc.
