Romans would usually have had three meals a day, much like most of the western world does now.
Breakfast (ientaculum), taken around 9am, and lunch (prandium) at noon would both usually be small meals, more like snacks.
The only real hearty meal of the day would have been dinner (cena) in the late evening.
