MEAL

A meal is an instance of eating, specifi-

cally one that takes place at a specific time

and includes specific, prepared food.

Meals occur primarily at homes, restaurants,

and cafeterias, but may occur anywhere. Regu-

lar meals occur on a daily basis, typically sev-

eral times a day. Special meals are usually held

in conjunction with such occasions as birth-

days, weddings, anniversaries, and holidays.

50These are the most common set mealtimes in the

Western-world.

* Breakfast is usually eaten within an hour

or two after a person wakes up in the morning.

* Lunch is eaten around mid-day, usually between

11 am–2 pm.

* Supper in the US and UK is a meal eaten in the evening.

* Dinner is the main meal of the day, regardless

of whether it's at lunchtime or in the evening. Din-

ner also refers to the evening meal as a formal meal

or just the evening meal in the south of England.

* Dessert is typically eaten after dinner as a

treat. It may be considered a course within a meal

or a meal itself. Cakes, pastries, fresh fruit, and

ice cream are examples of common dessert food.
