When Americans try a British breakfast for the first time..

[Lawro's Lip]

Did she say they made the sausage out of their butcher!!

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

On my first trip to the 'States, I ordered blueberry waffles for breakfast at a diner.

They were around 6 inches diameter, stacked 8 inches tall, and arrived on a huge plate with crispy bacon, and something called "link" sausages... and a pot of maple syrup.

Americans have no right to criticize anyone elses breakfasts!

Had similar last year - pancakes instead of waffles - but with steak on the side-----lovely!

In fairness on my two visits to the US I have enjoyed their take on it - mapel syrup and pancakes - as well.

I love a nice pancake with maple syrup too. It was just the reasoning of a couple of dimwits I was against.

Maple syrup is Canadian.

I remember when Dennys had a marketing gimmick of putting a countdown timer on your table when they took the order, if it ran out before you were served the Breakfast was free

Since living in the States I have become quite partial to grits at Breakfast

Maple syrup is Canadian.

Produced in the USA as well. Do you really think the trees get to the border and say 'let's not grow here, we'll stay in Canada'?

Ben & Jerrys no longer make The Full Vermonty! IMO the best maple syrup ice cream I have tasted. I just didn't eat enough obviously

 

[vegster]

It's rather odd that most of them formulate an opinion almost immediately after nibbling a little of the first thing on the plate, the magic of a Full English is chasing a bacon round the plate and getting it in the egg than add a slice of sausage to your fork then dunk in the tom sauce/HP sauce. Would be better to have had a verdict after eating all of it rather than rating items individually. Harumphh.

French toast with syrup for breakfast

When I was in New Orleans years ago I ordered French Toast on the wife's advise, so they turn up with this toast and white stuff all over it and a side order of syrup.... The wife is laughing at me as I stare at it in disgust..... The waitress asks what's wrong, the wife explained I was English and I then informed her 1: we call it eggy bread 2: we don't have syrup or white sprinkly stuff all over it 3: we have it with Tomato Ketchup.... After laughing about it she took it back, and came back five minutes later with eggy bread and bottle of Ketchup.... And the chef came out to watch me eat it in disbelief....

Eggy bread....

Exactly, we're not Americans. This is more like the traditional English Breakfast:

Corn flakes are Murican.

Dennys breakfast takes some beating

 

[Jim Van Winkle]

Man, I absolutely love pancakes, maple syrup and bacon!

Gawd bless America.

We had bit of an incident when a Canadian tried some English mustard. Nearly had to call an ambulance!

That's not the point I was making

A bowl of cereal is the typical English breakfast

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Surely this is what everyone has for breakfast in the UK?

I take it the croissant and coffee are optional?

Compulsory. Caffeine and correct opinion are a heady morning mix.
