Lunch
Lunch is a meal typically eaten in the middle of the day, often considered the second meal of the day after breakfast and before dinner. The exact time for lunch can vary by culture and personal preference, but it usually occurs between late morning and early afternoon. Lunch can consist of a wide variety of foods, ranging from simple items like sandwiches and salads to more elaborate dishes. It often serves as an opportunity for individuals to take a break from work or daily activities, socialize with others, or refuel for the remainder of the day.
