This partly explains why everything in Helsinki is closed so early. I was a hungry American tourist, left with very few options close by my hotel. It was only a problem the first evening.

Finns also eat their main meal at lunchtime. And by lunchtime, I mean 11am. I worked at a lunch restaurant and had people having a huge meal (salad, bread vegetables, potatoes, two schnitzels, soup and dessert) at 10:30. Sometimes earlier if we were ready.

As a Finn I've never been able to do that, but when in the army or working, kinda have to for fuel (depending on what job I was doing office jobs don't really need energy like that).

Always felt incredibly nauseous afterwards.

When I get to be on my own schedule, I eat at around 19-21 (but also go to bed really late)

I mean, if that's your main meal of the day I get it.

There's people at my office doing omad and only eat lunsj

Good for you, but you're not average.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

No, I'm not "the average" (because I'm one person), and I don't think it's particularly good for me. In fact, it's caused quite a lot of issues.
