[Dietary habits of school children: breakfast].
An investigation on the dietary habits of 944 secondary school children from Alghero, with reference to breakfast consumption and composition, has shown that the percentage of students who eat nothing for breakfast is higher than that reported by other authors. Furthermore it has been noted that consumption decreases among grown up students. Milk and coffee is the most common type of nutriment and also bread and biscuits are well represented. Other types of food, such as jam, yogurt or butter, are instead rarely consumed. Therefore the average caloric intake is of about 400 Kcal.
