How many meals do you have every day? In many English homes people eat four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.

People have breakfast at any time from seven to nine in the morning. They eat porridge, eggs or bread. English people drink tea or coffee at breakfast.

Lunch comes at one o’clock. Afternoon tea is usually from four to five in the afternoon and dinner is at about half past seven in the evening. First they have soup, and then they have meat or fish with vegetables. After that they eat some other things, like bananas, apples or oranges.

But not all English people eat like that. Some of them have their dinner in the middle of the day. Their meals are breakfast, dinner, tea and supper and all these meals are very simple.
