The ientaculum was/is the Latin for breakfast. The ancient Romans generally had a light snack type breakfast which may have been a bread chunk dipped in oil or honey and a drink of juice or posca. However if they had been hosting or a guest at a dinner the night before, they would eat leftovers from the dinner. It was perfectly acceptable for guests to bring large napkins to a dinner and take "a little something" home with them.
