>Spaniards have a later lunch, starting around 1pm, and going on until 4 or 5pm. This could possibly be due to the tradition of afternoon siesta.

It's "funny" how someone that is supposed to be so smart, can be so ignorant at the same time

Or bad at interpreting data?

Of course not all Germans go for lunch at 12-1 but unless you are in retail or your team has decided 1-2 is better, or 30min is enough.. I think it's just a very good guess that it's 12-1 for most the people. If it was a real 50:50 split between 12-1 or 1-2 then it could look like a 2h break. Unsure, I can't read their data properly.

But they do? At least near us? Shops close from 1 ‘til 4, and are then open until 9pm. Some businesses like mechanics too - although offices tend to stick to the more widespread 9-5, with more lunch from 12:30 to 14:00.
