This was usually the invitation when the meal was ready to come and get something to eat when out on the farm or ranch i.e., "Come and get it [the food]". Often it was yelled out, and the ranch hand would use a triangular dinner "bell" to clang out the message to those out of verbal earshot. One of those looks like: Millwood-Pines--Old-Western-Dinner-Triangle-Calling-Bell-X113328167-L439-K_W002217056.

Originally informal "Dinner is served", now often semi-ironic invitation to combat.
