Just out of curiosity - when do you eat the largest meal of the day (if there is one significantly larger than the others)?
I remember being told once that in the USA most people have the largest meal of the day in the evening, while we have it at lunch. The lunch thing is definitely correct, but I have no idea about the USA schedule (if there is any, of course, that is).
My mealtimes vary wildly with my work/rehearsal schedule, but it's not uncommon for my first meal of the day to be 2-3pm. I value sleep over breakfast (unless you count coffee).
I'm a grazer by nature, so I usually have two (small) breakfasts.
Evening, definitely. Then again, with my screwed-up schedule I find it very hard to fit lunch in, so when I do have it I don't really have the time or organization for it to be big.
Yeah, the typical US pattern is increasingly large meals through the day, so dinner is the biggest. I think I'm more even, but breakfast is usually the smallest.

Oh man. I wish I hadn't had dinner out last night. And I wish I didn't have leftovers that need eating in my fridge at home.
Dinner is generally the "main" meal of the day in the US.
We could use a vw too. It's warmer here and she could make lunches for cute kids.
When I was a kid, the three meals were breakfast, lunch and dinner. But they could also be breakfast, dinner and supper. Which could be confusing, as dinner could be two different things.
Anyone else have the dinner=2nd meal, supper=3rd meal thing?

Only as a running gag on Are You Being Served?
I think we would not eat a big dinner if we ate it at 10pm. Because we eat it at 6 or 7 (unless you're me), it's not as weird.
My problem is how easy it is to skip lunch, and consequently how hard it is to muster the energy to care about anything at 4pm. This would be why I keep snacks in my office -- peanut butter crackers keep the business world moving.
