Fun fact: The stereotype that Spanish people eat much later and stay up much later than most other Europeans comes from their time zone being synced to the EU, not to the sun.
Midday is around 1:30-2pm there.
If they had the "fitting" time zone for their geographical longitude, they'd eat and sleep at the same time as everyone else.
