Can we please clear this up.
Lunch - noon
Dinner/supper - 6-8pm
Right? Dinner is NOT at lunch

Right

Dinner is what everyone else calls lunch.

Lunch is only between two or more people with non-matching genitalia.
Dinner is after 6:30 but before 9:30 Mountain Time
And Supper is typically reserved for Prussian royalty or orthodox holidays.
Also, this thread is dumb.

If you are Cajun it is breakfast, dinner, and then you go to a supper.

Correct.

We have breakfast, lunch, then dinner.

Lunch = noon
Supper = normal nightly meal
Dinner = Noon on Sundays, "fancy" nightly meal any other time.

I think Supper is technically the night meal while Dinner is the biggest meal of the day that can take place at lunch or supper time...

No. It's a Cajunism based on tradition. Dinner is your biggest meal of the day, from the French "diner" or "to dine." It can occur at any time of day, but they usually ate a big meal around noon. Then, at night time when they were hungry again, they would have "supper" which is a SUPlementary small meal.
So in SWLA, a lot of people still eat "dinner" around what most people would call "lunch time."

Some days I bring my lunch to work, but if I don't I go eat dinner around noon. Before I get home sometimes I wonder what's for supper.

Lunch is the midday meal. Supper is the last meal of the day. Dinner can be either.

Lunch = Lunch
Supper = evening meal at home
Dinner = evening meal at restaurant
/thread.
I Said Good day!

Lunch is at noon. Dinner/supper is the nightly meal.
Look at nice restaurants, their "lunch" menu is served between 11am and 2pm. Their "dinner" menu is served from 5pm until close.

I think it is a geographical/generational thing.
My grandparents are old country folks in their 80's and they refer to lunch as dinner. My grandma would always cook 3 meals a day - Breakfast, Dinner, Supper.
I use "lunch" as more of a workday meal term.

What about just Lupper, Linner or Sinner?
Posted on 4/14/15 at 9:33 am to CP3
I eat when I'm hungry.

Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and snacks in between. Supper is unnecessary.
