Everyone has different eating habits.
There is no typical FRUM family.
You write of the typical Israeli breakfast which is quite different than the American.
I start the day with a cup of coffee and a toasted bread item with margarine (not fond of butter) cost less than $1, Mrs. CTL has a yogurt and a small glass of juice which costs about $2.00. Our grandchildren are apt to have a bowl of cold cereal with milk or a toasted waffle and juice. They grab a piece of fresh fruit to eat on the way to school. Eggs for breakfast tends to be a Sunday morning thing in our family
I assume we eat more meat than you do for lunch and suppers. In season we grow our own vegetables. Right now the apple tree by our swimming pool is yielding a bountiful harvest for eating, baking and canning apple sauce (for Chanuka latkes).
