Beans for breakfast go back to medieval times. People who don't have beans are basically either working class traitors or Tories.

They'd hang, draw and quarter anti-beaners in medieval times for being witches. Can we bring back corporal punishment?

I think adding chips to your fry-up is probably one of those bizarre Freemason rituals like rolling up one trouser leg or exposing a nipple. Totally anti-social and wrong'un behavior however you look at it. No wonder the cunts meet in secret.

People in the Middle Ages used to live in wattle and daub huts, so the above is like saying people who live in brick houses are working class traitors or Tories.

 

If something is shit, and you don’t have to put up with it any more, then you get rid. That goes for wattle and daub huts and beans on a breakfast.

But beans on a breakfast are boss.

The article is a load of wank.

Beans were only added to a fry up in the 60s. Some caff on the A1 that the ton-up bikers used to use added them to add bulk to the meal without it it actually costing them much. It's a filthy southern affectation, no northerner brought up properly would have contemplated such a heinous move.

 Rumours thar Gary Glitter and Jimmy Savile were employed in the kitchen at the time are probably false.

Bacon-maker par excellence Tim Hayward. "I love a fry up with all my congested heart," he says. "The full-fried is probably the UK's greatest gift to the civilised world – the erotic dance of sausage, bacon and egg, the grace note of black pudding, the righteous fried bread …" he trails off, dribbling.

"I find your views shocking and upsetting," says Seb Emina, author of the Breakfast Bible. "Fry-ups are a way of showing off good ingredients. You take bacon, egg, black pudding, mushrooms etc, cook them to your liking, and arrange them on a plate. That's it."

 

Notice the words.

Now, I'm no historian, but I'd wager the beans being eaten in medieval Britain weren't the shitty Tango'd haemorrhoids covered in day-glow discharge we've come to see on many a fry up.

It's called the English Breakfast Handbook. The picture is up there with the worst breakfasts in this thread. Mostly inedible. Even in the 1970s when that book came out people would have ran screaming in terror from a plate like that placed before them. Little Chef was serving better than that back then.

UNTRUE!!!

 

 

The full name is "The English Breakfast Handbook - A Guide to the Traditional Full English Breakfast."

It was written a few years back by the founder of the English Breakfast Society.

He started the Society in 2012, partly out of frustration of not being able to find a proper full English breakfast in West London during the early 90’s. He set out to reverse the decline he saw in a grand old national tradition and to spread word of the history and tradition of the English breakfast, determined to keep it firmly in the public eye.

As someone who has worked on the building for many years let’s discuss Hash Browns. I can never remember them being an item on a brekkie until the last 12/15 years. Or is it just me? Or my memory.

They are definitely a new and highly unwelcome fad

On a brekkie I agree. What next Roast Potato’s? Blasphemy!

Frozen, formed into a triangle potatostuff is not hashbrowns anyway.

Yanks with hash browns and cockney's with chips, the dirty bastards.

 

 

And this from a devout spud lover. There is no place for a spud on a breakfast plate.

Bacon is undercooked and only one rasher.

Sausage is burnt at one end and only one of them.

Eggs need the oil flicking on them.

The mushrooms look shite.

No black pudding.

 

3/10

[cloggypop]

The eggs are the worst bit. Look at that yolk to egg white ratio. Outrageous. The yolks are actually smaller than a button mushroom. I don't know what animal those eggs are from but it certainly isn't a hen.

It must be American as hash browns are an integral part of the McDonald's breakfast menu.

First breakfast of 2019

 

Venue: Market Cafe, London Fields

Price point: £9.50

Detailed ingriedients: Unfortunately it wasn’t fully disclosed on the menu, so I didn’t know it didn’t include black pudding... but anw, 1 x Sausage, 2 x Bacon, 2 x friend eggs, sautéed mushroom, grilled tomato, hash brown, beans, a slide of sourdough bread.

Verdict: It was quite nice, but way overpriced. The sausage was tasty, I enjoyed the fried eggs, nice enough mushroom. Would’ve liked to have at least a slice of black pudding with it. I thought about ordering it as extras only to find out that they’re charging £2+ for it.

 

Your brekky looks like that Gonzo lad from The Muppets.

Sauteed mushroom? That looks like overcooked black pudding or a lump of coal.
