Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. German breakfast habits are much the same as in other countries. A good, traditional breakfast includes bread, toast, and/or rolls, marmalade, honey, eggs, cold meats, such as ham and salami, various cheeses, all washed down with a strong cup or pot of tea or coffee. However, with today's busy lifestyles there is a growing trend towards eating a more simple breakfast.
German Cuisine on the Day of German Unity. October 3 is the German national holiday, the Day of German Unity. But unlike the Fourth of July in the United States, there are no parades and no traditions, culinary or other, because the holiday only goes back to 1990. It was introduced to mark German Reunification that year and replaced June 17, the holiday that commemorated the East German uprising of 1953. Until the GDR began to visibly crumble in 1989, the fact that I was living in a divided country was totally abstract to me.
