I think it was dictionary.com, but I found the same paragraph on several sites.
Lunch can only be taken at midday, without exception everybody understands that. The issue is Dinner and Tea.
If you have Dinner (your main meal) at lunchtime then you may have a tea at teatime, but if your main meal is Dinner in the evening, then you may have had a lunch?
