Catholics prayer, 'grace' before meals in Brazil? As pessoas do Brasil falam oracoes antes de comer?
In English, many Catholics say this prayer before meals:
Bless us, O Lord, in these thy gifts, which we are about to receive from thy bounty through Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Do Catholics in Brazil say anything similar before meals or is there a translated version of this prayer available?
Muito obrigado!

Catholics who pray before meals is not very common. However, on my view, this practice is important (especially among family). Today, we live in a kind of "democrat outbreak" among us. lolo. Christianity has been ostracized in any way. I'll post an example of prayer that we use in my family.
"Louvamos-te, oh Deus, pelas bençãos que nos dá por meio de Cristo, nosso Senhor. Agradecemos pela alimento que está em nossa mesa. Amém."
Ps: Can correct this answer? Thank you. See you later.

It's not a general rule, some people do and some other people don't. In my family, we always pray one of those prayers:
"Senhor agradecemos o alimento que hoje temos. Amém".
or
"Senhor abençoai o alimento do nosso lar, e na mesa do céu guardai-nos um lugar. Amém".
