Meals in Britain

Breakfastalso called brekkie by some but not common. Breakfast is usually the same everywhere though the contents of breakfast will vary hugely. Both Britain and Ireland are famous for their cooked breakfast is known as "Full" or "Cooked" breakfast.

Breakfast may begin with orange juice, cereals, stewed or fresh fruits but the heart of the Full breakfast is bacon and eggs, variously accompanied by sausages, grilled tomato, mushrooms, tea, toast, and marmalade

In other countries you may find the following: A Full English Breakfast may have Black Pudding, Baked Beans, and Fried Bread. A Full Scottish, as above but may also have, Potato Scones (Tattie Scones), Haggis and Oatcakes.

A Full Irish – Again, as above but may also have Soda Bread. A Full Welsh – Laver bread or laver cakes. These are neither bread or cakes but made with seaweed, the cakes seaweed cooked with oatmeal.

Elevenses – is known around the world as the morning coffee or tea break. The term comes from the industrial revolution in Britain which saw the rise of factories and mills throughout Britain which coincided with tea becoming the drink of the workers (formally it had been gin and beer, so perhaps a good move). The Tea Break came into being when the benefits of drinking tea and the revitalizing of the workforce came to be known. Hence, the tea break was born as was the more familiar elevenses.

Lunchthis considered a more working-class term. The traditional Sunday lunch (usually consisting of Roast Beef and Yorkshire Puddings) is also often called Sunday dinner or a Sunday Roast.

Afternoon Tea traditionally eaten around 3 – 4 o clock . The popularity for this treat is now back, though more for holidays and weekends than a daily event.

Tea(when meaning dinner and not the drink) is considered a mainly northern working-class term. When used in this context is eaten early evening and will often the main meal of the day on returning home from work.

Dinnereaten from early to late evening, used in the same way around the world.

Suppercan also be an evening meal but when attached to an invitation changes slightly. An invitation to supper would mean the arrangement is more casual than an invitation to dinner, which is usually more formal. Supper is also considered a hot or cold snack before bedtime.

A Take Away certainly a modern word as it is a meal bought and brought home (to-go, carry-out).
