Why did the Romans only have one main meal?

They didn't. They had three meals a day. We only hear about their main meal especially if it were a banquet. The Romans usually had a breakfast of leftovers from the night before and lunch was generally a light snack. However sometimes the lunch could be the main meal, if someone were entertaining visitors that afternoon, as in Cicero's letter to Atticus, talking about the luncheon his brother wanted to serve. Then dinner would usually be a snack. By the way, it was considered good manners to take leftovers home if you were invited to a dinner. A large napkin was brought along for this purpose.
