Do you call it Dinner or Supper--or something else entirely?

breakfast, lunch, supper. except on fancy holidays, then it's brunch, munch time, and dinner.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

When I was in England, though, dinner was "tea" and dessert was "pudding". Cute as hell.

The only time I heard supper in my family is when they were referring to the "Last Supper"

Southern North Carolina, USA born and raised...

For those evening meals, if I'm having a home cooked meal, no matter whose home it was cooked in, it's supper. If I'm going out to a restaurant, it's dinner. Which is funny, because even in deciding to go out, it's usually prefaced with "what do you want for supper?"

But, yeah, those holiday meals are usually referred to as dinner. Then again, they aren't eaten at lunch time, nor supper time...

Brunch is one of those meals I've never had in my life.

I got lots of different things.

My dad is from Michigan, but his family is Belgium. My mom is from Connecticut Greenwich and her family is puerto rican and Peruvian... so of course when it gets down to my generation, they throw everything at us KIDS.

Since starting this site, I've adopted the Hobbit meal names: breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and supper, in that order and vaguely corresponding to different parts of the day. So for me, dinner is around 6, and supper would be anything after 8 or 9.

Dinner! I hate the word supper

AGREED

*Dinner snob*

I have been known to call it dinner but most of the time it's supper. Well, pronounced, "suppah".

I live in the midwest us and it's Breakfast, Lunch, then Dinner or Supper-- both are used. I prefer to say dinner, but I call it supper sometimes as well. There really is no reason for why I would choose one over the other. I know people who call lunch dinner, and the last meal of the day supper as well.

Breakfast (literally meaning to break the fasting period of the prior night) is the first meal taken after rising from a night's sleep, most often eaten in the early morning before undertaking the day's work.[1] Among English speakers, "breakfast" can be used to refer to this meal, or, less commonly, to refer to a meal composed of traditional breakfast foods (eggs, oatmeal, sausages, etc.) served at any time of day.

Brunch is eaten between breakfast and lunch, and is a substitute for both these meals. The word is a portmanteau of breakfast and lunch.

Lunch, commonly abbreviated to lunch, is a middle of the day meal,[1] and is generally smaller than dinner, which is the main meal of the day whenever dinner is eaten. The origin of the words lunch and luncheon relate to a small meal originally eaten at any time of the day or night, but during the 20th century gradually focused toward a small meal eaten at midday.

Dinner is usually the name of the main meal of the day. Depending upon culture, dinner may be the second, third or fourth meal of the day.[1][2] Originally, though, it referred to the first meal of the day, eaten around noon, and is still occasionally used for a noontime meal, if it is a large or main meal.

Tea can refer to any of several different meals or mealtimes, depending on a country's customs and its history of drinking tea. However, in those countries where the term's use is common, the influences are generally those of the former British Empire (now the Commonwealth of Nations). Tea as a meal can be small or large.

Supper is a name for the evening meal in some dialects of English. While often used interchangeably with "dinner" today, supper was traditionally a separate meal. "Dinner" traditionally had been used to refer to the main and most formal meal of the day, which, from the Middle Ages until the 18th century, was most often the midday meal. When the evening meal became the main meal, it was referred to as "dinner", and the lighter midday meal was called "luncheon."

It's breakfast/lunch/dinner, here.
