There are various differences between what, when and where people eat in Spain and in England.

Breakfast: at home before work Lunch: with colleagues at work of friends at school. Between and 1.30 Dinner: at home after work. Normally between 6.30pm and 8pm

Dinner: hot, cooked meal normally of meat/fish, vegetables and a form of carbohydrate Lunch: normally a sandwich or salad that is brought from home or bought at work/school Breakfast: most people eat cereal or toast and drink fruit juice and tea/coffee.

This is what people call a mid-morning break when they may drink a cup of tea or coffee and have a snack, like a piece of fruit or a biscuit.

A cultural difference between Spain and England is that in England it is perfectly acceptable to eat whilst on public transport, standing at a bus-stop or walking down the street, for example. People will not think it strange.
