MEALS IN BRITAIN AND THE USA
The English are very particular about their meals and strictly keep to their meal times. They usually have four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. Breakfast is from any time till 8 o'clock in the morning, lunch is between 12 and 2 p.m., afternoon tea is between 4 and 5 p.m. and dinner between 7 and 9 p.m.
People in different countries have different ideas about what is good to eat and what is the best diet for them. But Britain is a country where many people think that breakfast is a very rich meal. The usual English breakfast is porridge or cornflakes with milk or cream and sugar, bacon and eggs, marmalade with buttered toast, rolls, tea or coffee. For a change they can have a boiled egg, cold ham, or perhaps fish. Tea is taken at breakfast more often than coffee. Some people, however, have just a cup of tea or coffee with a toast or something similar, a “continental breakfast”.
At midday everything is stopped for lunch. Most offices and small shops are closed for an hour and the city pavements are full of people on their way to cafes, coffee bars, restaurants. Factory workers usually eat in their canteens. It never happens that they miss a meal or put it off till a more convenient time. The English like what they call good plain food: steak, roast beef, Yorkshire pudding and fish and chips. At lunch time they usually have cold meat and salad or fish often with potatoes or other vegetables, fish and chips, sausages and a sweet dish (an apple pie, a hot milk pudding, cold fruit salad, or ice cream).
It is common knowledge that the English are very fond of tea. They like to have “a nice cup of tea” 6 or 8 times a day, sometimes even more. From four to five the English have a very light meal called afternoon tea, but it can hardly be called a meal. It's rather an occasion in the late afternoon at which they have a cup of tea and a cake or a biscuit. At the weekends afternoon tea is a special occasion. Friends and visitors are often invited to have a chat over a cup of tea. Some people have the so-called “high tea”. It's a meal taken between five and six if a dinner is not taken in the evening. It is usually a more substantial meal than afternoon tea.
Dinner is the most substantial meal of the day. It is much like lunch and in many families it is the last meal of the day. It is usually eaten at 7 o'clock. The first course may be soup though the English don't like it very much. The main course will often be fish or meat, and a lot of vegetables. The most typical meat is the traditional roast beef of old England, pork or veal chops or chicken. Some other dishes served as appetizers for dinner or for supper are different kinds of salads. The next course will be something sweet and often baked, such as a fruit pie. Last of all there may be cheese, often with biscuits.
Most British families go to restaurants on special occasions, like birthdays, or wedding anniversaries. British restaurants are not famous for their good food. Sometimes they offer only sausages and chips, fish and chips — chips with everything in fact. But there is a variety of restaurants of all nationalities in London and some other towns where you can choose food to your taste: Italian, French, Chinese, Russian and other restaurants.
Americans usually have three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. All these three meals are served almost at the same time as in Britain.
A usual breakfast in the United States is orange juice, toast and coffee, or juice and dry cereal with milk, or eggs.
Lunch is usually a small meal — a sandwich, salad or soup, hamburgers and sausages. Brunch in America is a combination of breakfast and lunch that many Americans enjoy on Sunday. It is usually served at about eleven in the morning. Scrambled eggs or omelets are often served along with other regular luncheon dishes. In many restaurants brunch is served from around 10 a.m. until mid-afternoon.
Dinner usually includes a main course of meat or fish accompanied by side dishes such as soup, salad and vegetables. Americans eat a lot of red meat, but more and more people are eating fish and poultry. Beef is the most popular red meat. In general, Americans like thick steaks. There are three ways to cook the meat: rare, not cooked very much, medium, and well-done, cooked a lot. The favourite American vegetable is the potato. It is served in many ways but the most common are: baked potato, mashed potato, and French potato. Corn, too, is a truly American vegetable. It is especially popular to eat the whole cob holding the ends with two fingers. This is called “corn on the cob.”
Eating out is very popular in the USA. There are two main types of restaurants in the USA — fast food and full service restaurants. Some restaurants are open even for breakfast, many restaurants, especially the better ones, open at about 11.30 a.m., others are open twenty-four hours a day. It is often necessary to make a reservation. A fast food restaurant is much like a cafeteria. Items such as hamburgers, hot chicken sandwiches, pizza, and salads are typical of a fast food restaurant. Eating in a fast food restaurant takes less time and is less expensive than in a full service restaurant. If you do not eat all your food, you may ask for a “doggie bag”. The waiter will put your uneaten food in a paper or plastic bag and you can take it home. You should not do it at an expensive first class restaurant, of course.
