But at weekends, things are quite different. People often have a large breakfast with fried eggs, potatoes, bacon, sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms and toast. Lunch is just a short break from the day’s work and it is not a big meal. It usually lasts less than an hour. Most people have a sandwich or fruit for lunch. People either take their lunch to work or eat in a fast food restaurant.
