Unless there was an event at lunch. The big meal is always dinner.

The only time I've heard lunch called dinner was in the Feliciana parishes.

During WW2 the USA issued the GIs field rations with a different meal labeled for the morning noon and evening meals.

The meals were labeled "Breakfast" "Dinner" and "Supper".

If it's good enough for our boys fighting the Nazis, it's good enough for me.


Breakfast, Dinner and Supper it is.

Well, if you had been an American Soldier fighting the Nazis during WW2, you'd have had the opportunity to eat plenty of K Rations labeled

Breakfast: morning meal

Dinner: noon meal

Supper: evening meal

“in many rural areas, particularly in the American South, people traditionally call the midday meal "dinner," especially if it's the largest meal, while the lighter evening meal is called "supper," though modern usage often mixes these terms, with "dinner" usually meaning the main evening meal now. This older custom stems from farming communities where the biggest meal was needed midday for energy, making it the day's "dinner" (main meal) and the evening meal the lighter "supper". “


That’s from google AI.
