Tiffin is an Indian and British term for a light meal eaten during the day.
Not so long ago, in India, the word was mostly used for light lunches prepared for working Indian men by their wives after they have left for work, and forwarded to them by Dabbawalas who use a complex system to get thousands of tiffin-boxes to their destinations.
