The Debate Rages On: Do You Say ‘Dinner’ or ‘Supper’? [POLL]

Every now and then, a simple question becomes a heated debate. The latest example: do you say 'dinner' or 'supper'?

Many see the two terms as interchangeable. Case in point, the definitions are nearly identical.

• Dinner - "the main meal of the day, eaten in the evening or at midday"
• Supper - "the evening meal, often the principal meal of the day"

Some argue it depends where you are regionally. Others say it's a generational thing. Everyone we've spoken to in our incredibly scientific poll almost unequivocally refers to the meal as 'dinner'.
