Eating and desserts

I know the meal in between Breakfast and Lunch is called Brunch. But I don't think they have come up with a name for the meal between Lunch and Dinner. Would it be called Linner or Lupper? LoL. I don't usually have a Dessert after my dinner. But sometimes I do like to have a fruit after Dinner.

Each country has their own set of eating time just like how the food differs from country to country. And how many meals we eat differs individually. Some can not afford a complete meal, others have too much. From my home country, people eat 3 meals a day : breakfast, lunch, dinner. Snacks or in between light meals or desserts( we call it merienda) are between b'fast & lunch, then another one between lunch & dinner. This is true to those who can afford 5 eatings a day. While for those who are financially hard up, usually eat Brakfast & Lunch together ( we call it Brunch ), then the next meal is dinner. No desserts or light meal in between. At present, i prepare for my husband and daughter Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Desserts we eat as often as we like and that is anytime of the day. Ice cream, choclate bars, fruits, salad, yoghurt - for anytime dessert. Our brakfast and dinner usually consist of bread, sausages, cheese, and favorite bread spread. And lastly before going to bed ( while on comp or while watching late tv program), my husband & i eat cereal.

et2blv hi well here I am in GardenGrove Ca in the US and we usually eat only three times a day and have a snack here in Gold Crest in the mid evening. We have breakfast at six am , lunch at 11 am and dinner at 4 p.m and snacks at 6"30 pm. We have desserts of fruit or cake after lunch and after dinner in the evening. We do not eat any dessert after breakfast, never do here in the U SA. I do so love to met all my friends here from around the world, and see what differences we all have, and how much we all have in common too. I sometimes like desserts but i have diabetes so have to be careful not to overdo the desserts too much.

I usually eat 3 times a day unless i eat a late breakfast & then i don't eat till dinner . your launags might be what we call a snack, i'm not sure. I love desserts to but don't need them every day so i try not to eat them that often. I am overweight so that doesn't help that problem any, lol. When i do eat desserts it's usually after dinner.

Oh, I eat dessert every day, too! I am such a big lover of sweets, I just can't help but do it every day, lol. Most days I just end up having cheap, pre-packaged cookies, though. I do love to bake so every once in a while I'll make a cake, pie or batch of cookies from scratch. ^o^

When I was a kid, we ate breakfast, lunch and dinner. We wouldn't have dessert until after dinner. Some people claim eating 5 smaller meals is better, but we never did. As an older person, I don't eat breakfast, I might eat lunch and I might eat dinner, but I generally don't eat desserts at all. If do have dessert, it's whenever I get a real craving for it, and it may not be associated with any meal.

WE have what is called brunck that is held arounf 11 am a combination of breakfast and lunch . Then dinner I only eat about 2 times a day. hardly ever have a dessert. but if we do its brownies and we eat them as a snack beteen lunch and dinner

I eat three times a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. In the evening I will take either little bit of snacks or a fruit. I will not eat desert everyday as I am a diabetic and sugar control is there for me.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Occasionally an afternoon snack. If we have company, 3:00 is coffee and cake time, but that's rare.

Let's see... Breakfast Lunch Dinner Supper... Of course to me Dinner and Supper are the same thing and are just one meal, and I use dinner and supper interchangeably. Hmm, well We eat three meals generally though we may snack all day, and deserts are whenever we please, though I know it's not like that for everyone.

I eat six times a day... LOL... I eat my breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks three times... ^_^ I don't fat easily that's why I tend to eat many...

Hi ET28LV, here in the philippines we used to eat five times a day: breakfast, morning snacks, lunch, afternoon snakcs and dinner. if you are strict with your diet then you can skip morning and afternoon snacks and just maintained the three main meals. for some they have heavy afternoon snacks and skip dinner. desserts are usually fruits or something sweets like cake or ice cream.

your greeting sounds and spells awful, et28lv. you call us mylooters, not mylotters... was that intended? i am beginning to believe that is an intended pun... hope it's not.

I eat twice or thrice a day. Yeah, I always have ice cream for dessert.:D Sometimes, if I have extra money I buy salad or cake.:D I usually have dessert after eating lunch. I eat lunch with my block mates.:D

Hi, ET28LV. I don't really include desserts into my meal. But, if I do eat an dessert it may be right after dinner. I love a slice of chocolate golden cake that has fudge on it. This is a very tasty treat.

As my fellow Filipinos have mentioned, we eat more than three times and that our snack time is called merienda. Even though that's the case, my family is quite different. Because we wake up late, we don't eat breakfast but eat "brunch"...which is breakfast + lunch at noon. However, it does not mean that the breakfast meal is added to the lunch meal. If we have desserts, we would take them after brunch. It's usually sweets like candy or chocolate. In the afternoon, we optionally eat some snacks. By supper/dinner, we optionally eat dessert too. If we get hungry later on, we eat some snacks at around 9 or 10 pm. But if there is work on that day, we always eat breakfast to get ready for the day. There was one time though that I got to experience eating five times a day. Our class went to a retreat and we had breakfast, morning snacks, lunch, afternoon snacks, then dinner. I was surprised at how many we ate during that retreat. Although we eat snacks at home, it seemed like we had meals even on snack times during the retreat. I remember that our desserts were chocolate, Kitkat in particular.

I love desserts but I don't eat them everyday. I try to keep a little something sweet and sometimes we make a cake or something but even then, I rarely eat it right after dinner. I usually wait until a little later.

How are you ET28LV? I am eating three times a day. I will eat snacks after each meal. Specially when my tummy request it badly. Sometimes work is highly needed much and it will be accomplished right away I can leave it. But if not hectic my schedules I always eat snacks. I like breads and cookies with softdrinks or water. During my early years I also used to it . It i practiced in our family.

I will typically eat anywhere between 3 and 5 times per day. I will eat breakfast upon rising, lunch, dinner, afternoon snack and sometimes a bedtime snack. As far as dessert goes, we only eat a dessert maybe once a week. We certainly don't eat dessert on a daily basis. A big part of the reason for this is that I don't like to have a lot of junk food in our house, but I also don't think that it is a good idea to never let ourselves have some junk food every now and then.

Before the economy had hit us badly, I would have eaten three meals a day plus dessert. Now I have one meal a day plus dessert. Money has been so tight lately that all I can afford is one meal a day and I cook desert once a week and it lasts all week. I hate the fact that the economy is in such bad shape and that everytime we get money it goes towards bills. I only have the bare necessities when it comes to bills telephone, Internet, power bill and a mortgage. We have a very old car that is not doing well and we pray that the car will last a while.
