The ancient Romans got their food from all over the empire. Italy itself was the producer of fish, meat and vegetables. Sicily and Egypt were the main suppliers of wheat, followed closely by North Africa. Although grape and olive products were grown and produced in Italy, Spain was a major producer of olive oil. Rome itself was the main consumer of food products, while the outlying cities generally supplied themselves, in addition to sometimes paying their tribute in food products.
