I think, when I was at primary school, breakfast tended to alternate between runs of buttered toast and, when we were fed up with that, boiled eggs.
Any toast not eaten for breakfast was wrapped up and taken to school to eat at first break with the school milk.
Dinner was school dinners and tea would be something simple; jam butties; rhubarb, custard and bread and butter; salad (may be whatever dad had growing, potatoes plus a small piece of cheese). I remember one particular meal where the mustard on our plate was near to flowering. Early on in the week, a luxury might be bacon and fried eggs as the bacon wouldn't keep very long from the Saturday delivery.
