It's bollocks, it's just a taste thing. Like I said on another comment, cappuccino works for breakfast because it's sweet (mostly because of the milk), which pairs well with a 'cornetto' (jam croissant). Personally I'm not a fan of milk and much prefer espresso, and I'm not lactose intolerant.
Lunch and dinner are salty food, and there's no place for milky drinks. In fact, drinking milk in general is just a breakfast thing for most Italians - perhaps as an afternoon snack with some Nutella when you're a kid.
- tinco 6y agoWeird, lots of people drink milk with their lunch here in The Netherlands, and I'm pretty sure the Germans do as well. Then again I feel our bread and toppings might be less salty. Young cheese and cold cuts, less intense flavours, less greens also.
- gattilorenz 6y agoIndeed, Italians find that... weird :) But so it's the whole Dutch lunch for an Italian (bread, butter and hagelslag wouldn't even be considered a meal, I think)
