* [[Dinner]] – |
* [[Dinner]] – Usually the largest and most elaborate meal of the day, which can replace either lunch, high tea, or supper. However, the term "dinner" can have many different meanings depending on the culture; it may mean a meal of any size eaten at any time of day.<ref>{{cite web|last=Olver|first=Lynne|author-link=Lynne Olver|title=Meal times|url=http://www.foodtimeline.org/foodfaq7.html#mealtimes|work=[[The Food Timeline]]|access-date=2 April 2014}}</ref> Historically, in British culture, dinner was taken at midday for children and manual workers; in the early evening for office workers; and in the late evening by the wealthier elements of society. During the latter half of the 20th century there has been a cultural shift towards everyone having the main meal in the late evening. The meaning as the evening meal, now generally the largest of the day, is becoming standard in most parts of the English-speaking world. |

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to meals:
Meal – eating occasion that takes place at a certain time and includes specific, prepared food, or the food eaten on that occasion.[1][2] The names used for specific meals in English vary greatly, depending on the speaker's culture, the time of day, or the size of the meal. Meals occur primarily at homes, restaurants, and cafeterias, but may occur anywhere. Regular meals occur on a daily basis, typically several times a day. Special meals are usually held in conjunction with such occasions as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and holidays. A meal is different from a snack in that meals are generally larger, more varied, and more filling than snacks.[3] Meals are composed of one or more courses,[4] which in turn are composed of one or more dishes.
Styles of meal, by cuisine – some examples of meals by cooking style, such as ethnic or regional meals include:
