I’ve noticed in a couple of lessons that gohan used to reference eating in general? Is that common? It it informal?

ご飯 (gohan) means two things: one is “cooked rice,” and the other is “a meal/meals.”
We use either one depending on the context, but fortunately, there is no confusion. : D
And yes, when we use ご飯 to mean “a meal/meals,” it’s informal. 食事 (しょくじ) sounds more formal.

Does it make sense?
