Hello @brittandjosie , here we eat this for pre-dinner, or about 4-5 for dinner and also for lunch. In many places in Argentina they are sold on the street and you can eat them at any time of the day.
You may have seen them for breakfast but they must be the sweet version, with sweet potato or milk jam or with sweet quince. Hope you are having a nice weekend. Greetings from Argentina.
