: It could be, but also it could be a light meal during the day time. Text didn't say any specific time. Anyway it was just a suggestion.

Sorry Kornelija, I didn't mean to offend you. I just try to help other ppl as they do when I'm stuck with my translatio. I don't know about Istria, but I've never heard it used for a meal after 12 o'clock and most of my life I've been living in Dalmatia.

Evo, nađoh i "riječ struke":
----------------------------------
Imenica objed (ob+jed) znači, dakle, najesti se do pune mjere, što i jest odlika glavnoga obroka u danu. Korijen jed- isti je i u glagolu jesti (*jedti) — jedem.
U imenici ručak isti je korijen kao i u imenici ruka; to je ruk. Dakle, ručak je obrok koji se jede rukom
-----------------
Vladimir Loknar podastire nekoliko sustava naziva i rasporeda obroka.
Prvi je seoski, koji je imao dva obroka: jutarnji i poslijepodnevni ili večernji, a jeo se poslije rada u polju.
Za prvi obrok Loknar navodi da se gotovo svuda zvao ručak, a drugi užina, objed (obid, obed) ili večera.
Danas je taj raspored uglavnom nestao, a zamijenio ga je najčešće tročlani — zajutrak, ručak, večera.
To su glavni obroci, a uz njih možemo susresti i sporedne obroke (doručak, užinu, uz lokalne varijante gablec, marenda, jauzn/jauzna).

"Merenda" is the same thing as "užina" and it means simply "snack".
As far as Italian is concerned I'd suggest to all Italian "speaking" colleagues to open an Italian – English dictionary, such as the Garzanti’s Grande Dizionario Italiano-Inglese and read:
merenda = (afternoon) snack […]

Discussion
But if you took marenda as užina (morning/afternoon snack; and it may be understood in that sense as well), then I'd say mid-morning snack.
