What to eat? and when?
#21
Our mom would have things like burger patties, grilled cheese sandwiches, or ham and cheese sandwiches for breakfast. So I got used to eating more substantial meals in the morning. Today, I eat anything anytime. If I want soup for breakfast and pancakes for supper, so be it. I like "breakfast foods" for supper. [Here in the south, most of us have dinner at midday and supper at night.]

That was a farm thing, too. Farmers usually have more time to spend at meals at noon, whereas in the morning and evening, there are milking chores to do, and they don't have time to sit around and enjoy their food.
When my cousin got married, the invitation said, "Wedding supper at 6:00 PM." And that was in St. Paul MN.

I eat only when I get hungry and whatever I want at the time. DH likes a set time for each meal so he eats at those times. I don't think he cares what food is what meal, he as long as it tastes good. My grandson age 4 is with me today and we had ziti noodles with cut up tomatoes, basil and grated cheese for breakfast. He ate a plate full.

After being on a night schedule for many years, I can eat anything anytime, with the exception of anything tomato-y. If I eat (say) spaghetti before bedtime, it gives me indigestion big-time. I'll wake up ON FIRE. Anything tomato-y has to be eaten early in my day.
I *love* breakfast for supper, or any other time of day!

Nothing to eat until after 3pm? I actually must have coffee and toast, cookie, pop tart first thing in morning...stomach is empty and growling...after feeding the beast..I can do the rest of the day however. But I would think no food in stomach all day while those stomach acids are churning up in there could lead to ulcers.....but to each his own...

Pizza makes a wonderful breakfast. I do mostly eat traditional breakfast type foods for breakfast. But if there is something good in the refrigerator there isn't any reason to not eat it for breakfast or dinner or whenever. My DH favorite breakfast is left over spaghetti and meat sauce. My kids favorite dinner was always breakfast for dinner.
