Thread: Tea? or dinner?

Breakast

Morning tea - often substantial

lunch

afternoon tea - around 3-4

dinner - substantial, around 6.30 -7

supper - a light snack before bed.

Christ, no wonder I'm over weight.

Lunch/dinner is the same thing for US country folks. Usually about mid-day.

Supper is always an evening meal.

You can have your dinner anytime after midday, but tea is always in the evening.

The Mexicans got the mealtime thing dialed in.
Desayuno, a light breaky.
Almuerzo, a hearty mid morning breaky.
Comida, mid afternoon multi course meal followed by a siesta.
Cena, light evening meal like a taco or two.

When it comes to food the world should just ignore the repulsive British notions of meals.

^^ a light supper before bed.

Sadly Americans inherited British aberrations of mealtimes.

For you Yanks on here,

Here's a dumb British girl to explain it to you



Read the first reply, funny

Aussie bush breakfast = a smoke, a scratch and a bit of a walk about.

How fokin embarrassing is that?

"Hi, I'm really stupid, I know nothing and I can't really express myself"

"I do swallow though.... "

breakfast - in the morning
lunch - in the afternoon
supper - in the evening
tea - any time you fancy a cup , an alternative to coffee

simples

Working 9-5

Breakfast - between 7:00 and 9:00,
Dinner/Lunch - between 12:00 and 1:30 p.m.
Tea - anywhere from 5:30 at night to 6:30 p.m.

Brunch- An American excuse for eating the equivalent of 2 meals at once


Supper- Another unhealthy meal for fat cnuts

Dinner? Tea? I normally call it "Gimme my fucking food bitch, and make it sharpish"

You missed the midnight snack....


and perhaps a 3.00am rummage in the fridge. (eg :Cold Turkey sandwich or summtink.

Breakfast, brunch, lunch, tea, dinner then supper.

...and a midnight snack.

I seem to recall my mother having something she described as "elevenses" in late morning, comprising tea and biscuits.

To hell with Breakfast!

Breakfast - Dinner - Tea.
