I think this is an American thing, or maybe just a younger generation thing, but in usual conversation (I'm Canadian), people will say 'we're going out to get some lunch, or breakfast', but I feel it's Americans who just call everything 'food'. 'We went out for some food', 'we went to get food'. It sounds super weird to me.

Is this an American thing or am I old?
