British meals
The first
meal of the day in the morning is breakfast. Some British people eat toast with
butter and jam (often strawberry, raspberry, apricot jam) or marmalade (a type
of jam made from oranges) and nothing else. Others eat a bowl of cereals, or
muesli with milk, or porridge. Melon, grapefruit or fruit cocktail are popular.
A traditional English breakfast is a cooked meal which may contain sausages,
bacon, black pudding, scrambled or fried egg, mushrooms, boiled tomatoes,
beans, and toast. A continental breakfast is a small uncooked meal: a bread
roll or croissant with cheese or ham. The most common (usual) drinks at this
time of day are orange juice or a cup of tea or coffee.
If a meal is
eaten in the late morning instead of both breakfast and lunch, it is called
brunch.
Lunch is the
meal eaten in the middle of the day (usually between about 12:30 and 2:00).
Many people eat meat, cheese or other sandwiches. Some people have a simple
meal such as cheese and biscuits or soup and bread. Drinks at lunch time are
very different: fruit juices, coca-cola, fanta, sprite, pepsi-cola, merinda,
7up and others. Some people like tea or coffee.
The Sunday
roast is a traditional meal eaten by a family at Sunday lunchtime; for example,
roast beef with roast potatoes, peas, brussels sprouts, green beans, Yorkshire
pudding and gravy.Supper is the
most common name for the meal eaten in the evening (usually between 7:00 and
8:30). Dinner is another common name for supper. It is a cooked meal of meat or
fish and two veg (vegetables), one of which is often potato. It is common to
eat dessert (also known as pudding) after the main dish.
Don’t forget to watch ;)
