2. Whether it is very
unique?
The Irish diet is similar
to that of other
Northern European
nations. There is an
emphasis on the
consumption of meat,
cereals, bread, and
potatoes at most meals.
Vegetables such as
cabbage, turnips,
carrots, and broccoli
are also popular as
accompaniments to the
meat and potatoes.

That took place
in the morning,
before a long a
hard day and
had to be heavy
2) dinner (the
midday meal and
the main one of
the day)
3) tea (in early evening,
and distinct from "high
tea" which is normally
served at 4:00 P.M. and is
associated with
British customs)
4) and supper (a
light repast
before retiring).

of new lifestyles, rashness of
modern life consumption of frozen
food, take-out, and processed foods
is increasing.

wheaten breads, sausages, and
bacon rashers) and some drinks
(such as the national beer, Guinness,

important gustatory and symbolic
roles in Irish meals and socializing.
