It has been too long since I have written a "make no sense, ramble about nothing blog" so here I go.
So we hear that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I understand this and why it is called that. A good breakfast gets your metabolism going and aids in weight loss if that is what you are going for. It also gets your body going and helps you mentally as you go through your day. So it is really hard to argue about the importance of breakfast.
But if breakfast is number one, who wins between lunch and dinner? Lunch seems to always come at an important time. The time when breakfast is wearing off and you are beginning to get hungry again. And especially if you are at work, it is hard to concentrate when your stomach is rumbling. Not only is that distracting, but it is also embarassing. So lunch helps control that and gets you through until dinner. But then after lunch you crash. You want to take a nap and just be done for the day. So production goes down after lunch. So that is not such a good thing.
But then there is dinner. Dinner tends to be the yummiest meal so it gets big points for that. If you are like me breakfast is maybe a breakfast bar or cereal or something basic and bland. Lunch may be a sandwich or salad. Usually a little better tasting than breakfast but still not something delicious. But then there is dinner. Things like steak and potatoes are reserved for dinner. Casseroles are reserved for dinner. Ever go to a restaraunt? The lunch menu is smaller portions. Why? Because we eat more at dinner. That is also a good thing. At dinner the salad that was your main course for lunch becomes the introduction to the main course. Dinner is also the one meal where if you are lucky, the family is all together and you can talk about everyone's day.
So with that all being considered I am ready to give the title of 2nd most important meal of the day to dinner.
But then Taco Bell comes along and invents the 4th meal and the title is stripped for dinner and given to this 4th meal simply because, well it is Taco Bell and meals just don't get any better!!

ReplyDeleteWell if u were Pipin from Lord of the rings you could choose from elevenses, Luncheon, Afternoon tea, and Supper! Midnight snacks are the best though in my opinion, wish it was breakfast so I could justify it as the most important meal of the day;) lol
