What do you call your meals?
It's a long running debate in our house! For me, it's breakfast, lunch and dinner; OH says breakfast, dinner and tea! And we always have a massive debate whenever one of us says dinner as to which meal we mean! Apparently the big one told her teachers it's breakfast, lunch and supper - I've never called it supper ever, so god knows where she got that from!

We have breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper. The kids have dinner not long after getting back from school they have a yogurt or fruit for supper.

I should probably do that with mine! I'm sick of hearing that theyre starving until dinner's ready! I always seem to be cooking and handing them fruit and biscuits til it's done!

I call it breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was kind of a rebellion thing as my parents always called it breakfast dinner and tea. All my friends called it breakfast lunch and dinner so I started doing the same and my parents teased me and said 'I think you mean tea!'
But I continued to this day!

We are pretty much the same here. For us it is breakfast, lunch and dinner (along with snacks sometimes). On the rare times when I saw supper everyone in the house looks at me odd. Same goes when I call the vacuum the sweeper or say I am going to the grocer rather than the market.

I call it breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Many people around here also say supper instead of dinner. It usually means a less formal, family type meal. I remember my grandmother calling it supper.

My parents used to call it breakfast, lunch and supper, but I call it breakfast, lunch and dinner. My parents used to tell me that dinner is for both lunch and supper; I've never taken time to verify that.

Breakfast, lunch and supper is how I know mine. My friends used to laugh at me when I say supper because they all call it dinner.
