Question: What time, on average, do you eat dinner?
Or supper, or whatever you call your evening meal?

1. Between 7 and 8 PM most days
Hubby gets home somewhere between 4:30 and 6:30, depending if he has to work late, run errands after work, or whatever. We have a salad as soon as he gets home, then dinner later. Since he has to be in bed by about 10 PM, we try to eat before 8 but if he needs more time to relax before dinner, we sometimes eat as late as 9 PM.

2. Pr(obabl)y around 7:00 PM in most cases.
Pr(obabl)y is pronouced like pry, by the way.

3. between 7 and 9
Not much consistency, I'm afraid, but 8 is probably average.

4. 9:30 to 11:30
neither of us have "normal" jobs and the hours can vary pretty widely, but we're definitely skewed later than most.

5. 9 PM in Miami and 1 AM when I'm in Las Vegas
Feels ridiculous to eat as early as 9. In Las Vegas that's snack time, not long after the 7 PM buffet lunch.

7. Thanks everyone!
My husband tends to be a late eater, while I'm the opposite. I was trying to get a sense for what the average is.

10. Anywhere from 6pm to 11pm.
Yeah, I know. It partly depends on when I eat lunch, but mostly has to do with when I get around to it.
