breakfast: cup of coffee or tea, a roll or a slice of bread, some cheese, salami, or a cake. Some people have for breakfast: glass of juice, cereal (usually cornflakes with milk or yogurt, or porridge). In England there was a typical breakfast - fried or grilled bacon and eggs, sausages and grill tomatoes or spicy beans in tomato sauce( now in hotels) and toasts with marmalade
elevenses: in the middle of the morning - usually cup of coffee and biscuits, sometimes, often at weekends - they have brunch (breakfast and lunch together)
lunch: is usually fairly light. Lunch often consists of a hot dish (soup), a salad, ham and cheese sandwiches, pizza, hamburgers, and a dessert.

A
meal is an instance of eating, specifically one that takes place at a specific time and includes specific, prepared food.
Meals are served at
home, restaurants, and cafeterias.
Meals are usually held in conjunction with such special occasions as
birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries.
A picnic is an outdoor meal where one brings one's food, such as a sandwich or a prepared meal in a picnic basket. It often takes place in a natural or recreative area, such as a park, forest, or beach. On long drives a picnic may take place at a road-side stop such as a rest area.
A banquet is a large, often formal, and elaborate meal with many guests.
A modern multi-course meal will typically consist of several of the following meal courses, as well as suitable beverages to fit the course being served:
appetizer with 1st wine, typically a white wine
salad
soup
main course with 2nd wine, typically a red wine
dessert with a dessert wine
after-dinner coffee with liqueur, brandy, cognac or grappa
fruit and cheese
there may be drinks and snacks served both before and after the meal.

the order of the courses depends on local custom - tradition, customs and etiquette varies from country to county, as well as within countries, based on such factors as regional differences, social class, education, and religion. People must be careful about it.
examples of different customs and traditions:
Food in some cultures is eaten from individual plates or bowls, while in other cultures people eat from a common one. Even where people tend to eat from individual plates, there may be exceptions, as in the case of some small pieces of food that can be held in the hand easily, such as cookies or some snack foods, where it is common to eat from a common plate, biscuit tin, or similar container.
different cultures might have different rules for eating the same item. In the USA people eat sausages in a bun, or with a knife and fork, while in some countries in Europe sausages are held between the fingers while being eaten.
in some cultures, it is considered proper to wait until everyone is seated before starting to eat, while in other cultures it is not an issue.
in some cultures it is considered proper to wait for the host to give the command before guests sit at the table for a meal, while in other cultures there are different rules.
in some religions, people pray or read aloud from a religious text before and possibly also after eating. In diverse, religiously mixed company where some people might want to pray, and others might not, it may be proper etiquette to allow for a short time of silence allowing those who want to do so, the chance to pray.
