Last time I was in England, my plate had some hash brown on it. I inquired about the absence of black pudding and was told it was rather an Irish/Scottish thing. Can you confirm that?

I'd say it's a british thing, always had it as a kid [irish parents], so did my friends [English and Scottish parents]

my dad used to bring some very nice white pudding [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_pudding ] back from ireland on his trips [pub crawls]

not to everyones liking, but I like it.

Its not 1537ad - nobody eats that.

s/he is from the Congo, I doubt they have much choice in what they eat, food is food afterall ^^

btw people still eat pigeon [wood] in the UK

what you do with pidgeon wood is your own concern! O______o7

Yeah, baked beans for breakfast. That was strange to see. I don't like beans anyway, but it's not a food I consider to be a breakfast item.

I might add to this list "ordering at a pub". That was a different experience, too. Not "bad" just different.

I don't think too many people would have beans for breakfast here really - though they would have them alongside a fry up at another time of day.

Depends on how bad the hangover is as well.

True baked beans are a recent thing, I remember breakfast being bacon, sausage, sunny side up eggs, fried tomatoes, black pudding. all. drenched in worcester sauce.

I'm hungry now.

PS a full english is also know as 'Heart attack food'

Interesting, I threw up a little.

It was 20 years ago so I don't remember all the details :) But as it was in a hotel were the breakfast were "standardized", I highly doubt they made something different on Sunday.

BTW, what are the dishes in a sunday roast dinner, the name alone makes me hungry now.... ^o^

I'd rather eat some congolese "delicacies" by the glorious warlo... I mean CHEF Mobutu! :D
Yup, you know you're screwed when "your" supreme leader eat his opponents ;(

Sorry if this appears twice, forums appear to be messing up more than normal.

Whats odd about it? Sausages! "Continental" is a slice of cheese on bread with some fruit, what are we living in biblical times? The Germans do it right, offer both. Sausages dipped in Weissbeer for breaky, winner!

Too busy rushing to get out into the traffic jams?

Have you ever had these?
