"Mozi Zashou" says that soldiers eat two meals a day, and their food intake is divided into five levels. The first meal is called "Chaoshi" or "Chow" and is eaten when the sun moves to the southeast (Yuzhong). The second meal is called "駧" or "food" and is eaten at Shen Shi (around four o'clock in the afternoon). Regarding meal time, the ancients said "If there is no time, no food" "The Analects of Confucius".

For example, "Historical Records·The Chronicles of Xiang Yu" records that when Xiang Yu heard that Liu Bang wanted to be the king of Guanzhong, he was angry and ordered "to enjoy the soldiers for a while" in order to reward the soldiers and stimulate their morale. After the Han Dynasty, two meals a day gradually changed to three or four meals. Moreover, the three meals began to be divided into breakfast, lunch and dinner. Breakfast, called cold utensils in the Han Dynasty, refers to the snacks eaten after getting up in the morning and washing up.
3. In the Tang Dynasty, Hangu began to be called dim sum. "Neng Gai Zhai Man Lu" says: "In secular practice, morning snacks are snacks, and this has been said since the Tang Dynasty." To this day, breakfast is still called breakfast in many areas of our country. Lunch, the ancients once called it "lunch" or "double lunch".
