How to use "Supper" in context?
You might be surprised to learn that supper wasn't always served as the final meal of the day. In fact, it evolved out of a morning meal. Many people believe that the term originated in the 13th century when people would break their fast with a sugary breakfast pastry called a "supper." In medieval England, people would eat their main course between noon and three in the afternoon, so supper served as the main meal of the day. In the 16th century, supper began to be served at night, and it gradually became the meal we know today.
