does a brunch really exist... according to mcdonalds breakfast ends at 10:30 m-s and 11 on Sunday... and then lunch begins, there is no scheduled time for brunch a mixture of both... so what constitutes a brunch?

I don't think there are set times for a meal. There has been breakfast long before there has been McDonald's. Breakfast is just in the morning, usually shortly after waking, lunch is noon/early afternoon, and I would consider brunch any meal in the late morning before and after which you do not eat any meals until late afternoon/early evening for supper.

I have nothing useful to say at this time except mmmmm popovers

hrm... no, their must be set times to describe these things... without it the world loses gravity and we all die in space.

All I have to say (sorry knox) is... fuck I'm hungry.

LOL... me too...

My personal concept of brunch is saturday and sunday from 10 am to 2 pm and absolutely must include pancakes,veggie sausage, and a variety sweet and savory popovers (fresh from the oven and with cream cheese, butter, and jam for you crazy people)

if thats brunch then what time does lunch start?

Lunch is 11am -2 pm and does not include any breakfast foods (blech!) Lunch and brunch can coexist. The defining factor is the food served. Brunch includes breakfast foods and more savory lunch items (blech) while lunch is only the typical lunch menu stuff.

okay... if this is so is there a difinitive of mixture between lunch and dinner?
