It’s lunch and I didn’t think this was something that was up to interpretation.

Have you ever been to a restaurant that has different menus for lunch and dinner? Which one do they give you at noon?

As an old man, dinner and supper are the same. Lunch is mid day.

Who the heck would call the mid day deal dinner? Do they also call the sun going down as morning?

Rural folks and farmers have 4 meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Supper. Lunch is usually mid-morning and dinner is early afternoon.

This is the best way I’ve heard it explained.
