Back when people lived on farms and raised their food, a full breakfast was vital. Of course, it wasn't as soon as they rolled out of bed. While some members of the family stumbled through dawn, or predawn chores, another one or two people would be in the kitchen cooking up a meal that would serve as both breakfast and a light lunch. An hour or two after waking, the family members doing animal feeding chores would stumble into the kitchen with rumbling stomachs to pork chops, steaks, and potatoes. They'd carry leftovers with them to snack on throughout the day.
