[QUOTE="bamba, post: 1721595, member: 443017"] A MEAL has a social context. If we were simply left alone with abundant stores of food and not have to interact with anyone else, then we could just eat when we please. I once went on a day trip to Dieppe - to find that, just after the ferry arrived - ever shop in the town closed for lunch. ( I am told that in some French towns - the Cafes close for lunch as well). A Meal is a[I] defined time period[/I] where you are permitted/expected to eat. (What you are allowed to eat in that period also has social/religeous context). [/QUOTE]
