Now I think I have to make a huge breakfast tomorrow morning. (Though my perfect breakfast is eggs, steak and hash browns, not quite as vast as that image. I don't know if it's because I'm American, but beans for breakfast sounds like an odd idea, though I am certainly not opposed to it.)

I prefer bacon, scrambled eggs, toast and hashbrowns. So I guess that's like an American breakfast.
...
Actually, no, an American breakfast is cold pizza and watery beer.

It is good, I've had it a couple of times in my life, but in Norway it's really not common at all! At least not baked beans, mushrooms, fried fish, sausages and the tomatoes.. So, basically just egg, bacon and bread then..

Egg is rather normal, but hard or soft boiled without bacon, or fried with bacon.

My preference is simply bread with something on it.. Not anything fancy that takes too long to make and eat... For lunch however I'd be more receptive to a meal like the one you showed.

These are the defenders of British Breakfast, bestowed the honour by the Great British Food God to vanquish all the nasty after effects of alcohol.
Nothing against you personally, but I think it's gross that you guys can't touch a vegetable without frying it. I would say to think of your heart, but if you're english then you're probably cheerfully pickling your liver as it is. I mean, your breakfast IS a hangover cure for a reason...

Like I said earlier, normal people don't eat this kind of thing every day. Hell, I haven't had one in months.

The one breakfast...


To rule them all!
For about two decades, I stayed away from it and the likes, because I was absolutely sure there was just plain too much carbs and too much fat in that. Then I had a veritable epiphany and realized that if I prepare properly in advance, as do quite a number of eateries and food places, and all of a sudden smaller, adequate portions really worked for me.

Oatmeal, porridge, cheesecrusts, leftover curry, mashed potatoes - anything goes, really, if people only get down and think about how much of what they need to properly make it through to lunchtime without starving their brains or bodies silly.

I still love croissant every now and then, but since making them yourself is a pain in the nether regions, it's rather easy just say no most of the time. Oh, and them decadent croissants are a whole lot of fat and calories for the excessive amount of air you end up stuffing yourself with. Too much croissant gives you heartburp. Yeah, it's a word I made up eventually, specifically for describing croissant overdoses.

Oh, and I love the idea of black pudding for breakfast. It's usually only on the breakfast menu during autumn, right after slaughter season. But it's such a treat, either plain with maybe a little bit of salt, or fully poshed up with toasted bread and apple puree... black pudding in the morning even makes the morning coffee obsolete, it's just pure bloody goodness, without the hassle of having to prepare a dozen ingredients.

Then again, I am also quite a fan of muesli... y'know, generic non-branded cereal stuff, some cut-up fresh fruit, some raisins if you like'em, some lemon juice from freshly slaughtered lemons and an all-natural yoghurt? Splendid energy food, without any additives, no salt and just enough energy for everything, be it heavy thinking or sweaty muscle-pumping. Lovely, lovely stuff.

Go for it, when did chicken ever feed anyone?

Bacon and eggs is the answer to all life's problems.

Damn that looks good. Too bad I don't have half of that in my fridge and I have no money at the moment.....Of course I'd have to substitute something else for the tomatoes since I can't eat them....*sobs into her tea*

Surely it was with their glorious eggs? !
That's what they want you to think.

Think about. Does it really make sense for chickens to lay tasty orbs of deliciousness?

We've been lied to for years.

I prefer a Scottish fry-up to be honest. Black pudding, square sausage and potato scones are a must! ;)
Fried potoato scones are like the best thing in existance. Infact just tattie scones (Yes the ones I reluctantly had to share with my brother as he bought them actually said "Tattie scones" on the packet. Though I would and do actually just sit and eat a whole packet just as they are you only get 6 and I find it depressing xD Everything tastes better fryed though. POTATO SCONE FAN ATTACK OVER. *Gasp*

Mushrooms? Tomatoes? Baked-fricking-beans? FOR BREAKFAST??

Dammit, England...

As opposed to pancakes and other sweet monstrosities?

Nobody should eat that much sugar as soon as they wake up.

This is what I have for breakfast about 2-3 times a week, only without the egg. A Taylor ham, egg and cheese. It's the (New) Jersey standard breakfast.

Hey, I'd eat it.

Looks really hearty and satisfying.

A man's sandwich.

I usually get mine with salt, pepper, and ketchup. The salt and pepper is obvious, and the ketchup helps cool it down so you can eat it with maximum speed.

Bleh.
Fat and meat filled English breakfast make me gag simply by looking at them.
I prefer something a bit more... easy on my stomach.



That or this




If I weren't so sick right now, I'd be going crazy trying to get that.

I am dying for a full english now. I only have bacon, egg and hash browns in the house though, and just those together is completely unsatisfying. However, I'm gonna toast two slices of white bread, and chuck everything between them smothered with brown sauce. I had a bacon and egg toasted sandwich for tea tonight, but I still can't fucking wait for morning.
