The term "tuck", meaning food, is slang and probably originates from such phrases as "to tuck into a meal". It is closely related to the Australian English word "tucker", meaning food. A tuck shop typically sells confectionery, sandwiches, and finger-food, such as sweets, crisps, soft drinks, and such. Recently there have been moves to change to a wider variety of "healthier" foods. In Australia, where the tuck shop will typically be the only source of bought food at the school/club, the menu is more substantial and is more similar to the school dinners provided by the British government.
