English Meals
Frankly we, the British, are often criticised for the food we have, our cuisine doesn't enjoy the best of reputations in the world.
I, for one, think that food is not so important. The main problem is not to eat too much to keep fit.
Being Miss England, certainly, means being slim. I have to be on a slimming diet. Though "have to " is not the right word.
I enjoy my diet. My motto is: "We don't live to eat, we eat to live."
I believe a lot of people in this country are constantly overeating. Most of them have four good meals a day.
And the famous English breakfast! It is often called a cooked breakfast or a big breakfast which it really is.
Can you fancy eating at a time porridge or cornflakes or some other kind of cereal, bacon or bam, eggs, toasts, rolls, jam or marmalade and tea or coffee to finish with? It's too much of a good thing, isn't it? I prefer continental breakfast, that is just a cup of coffee and a roll. Now many people in Britain have the same^ specially on weekdays when they are hurrying to their work.
The English day-time meal is called lunch and it usually consists of two courses: a meat or a fish dish, vegetables and dessert. Some people though don't eat much at lunch, they may just have a snack in a snack-bar or a cafe.
Many books on Britain write about the famous 5 o'clock tea, saying that the British always have tea at this time. I should say in reality not many people can follow the tradition as they are busy at work or elsewhere. So they have to adjust their tea-time to their daily schedule.
We, the. Britons, are great tea-drinkers. We drink it even when watching television. Not long ago I saw an advertisement "Join the TeaV-set." By the way, do you know that the British like taking their tea with milk? Taste it, I'm sure you will like it.
In the evening at 7 or 8 o'clock people in England have their last but not the least meal of the day. If the late evening meal is light, it is called supper. But if you take something substantial, then we call it dinner. We don't often eat soups, but if we do, that would most often be at dinner time.
I should say the British people do not eat oat as much as other Europeans do, still many of them would enjoy a dinner at a restaurant. Today the number of people eating out has increased.
But the most popular place for a drink and a chat is a pub. And that's where I am inviting you now. Shall we go?
