Now there is a word that I have not heard used for a LONG time. When I was growing up in India in the 1960s, having 'tiffin' usually meant snacks at teatime, although it was occasionally used for breakfast as well. Since India used to be a British Colony ([msnmad]), I always thought that 'tiffin' was a British Colonial term, probably with a military connection. I have never heard any American (or a Brit under 50) use it.
