meals of breakfast and lunch on
weekdays. They prefer to have snacks. Most people don’t have a cooked breakfast before they leave for work. Very few American people still eat bacon and eggs and toast and jam in the morning. Cereal and fruit and a cup of coffee is common today. Many
working people don’t have time for a big lunch because they only have a short break at lunchtime. They take a sandwich to work or have a quick snack in a sandwich bar or a cafeteria.

prepare cooked breakfasts with bacon and eggs. A big Sunday lunch with the family is also still very common. There are signs that things may change again.

You may be prepared for lost luggage, flight delays, or an
unfinished swimming pool, but what about the common ailments that can ruin your vacation? Travel sickness, diarrhea, sunburn, heat exhaustion, mosquito bites... for many of us, these are what vacation memories are made of. Vacation health
problems are common and the more exotic the destination, the more unusual you can expect
the health risks to be. Did you know that about 40 percent of people travelling abroad each year fall ill as a result of their vacation? For most, it's a fairly minor ailment such as sickness or diarrhea—and although that's distressing enough, several thousand others contract malaria and other potentially fatal diseases, such as typhoid or hepatitis.
However, a little thought and
preparation before you leave home can minimize or even prevent many typical vacation health problems. If you take common-sense precautions and ask your local pharmacist for advice and effective remedies, you can look forward to a happy and healthy holiday.
