Is the 'full English breakfast' overrated?
 

I don't hate it or anything but don't see the hype. I prefer most of it in a sandwich. But people joyously talk about how they'll devour it when doing the walk of shame after a night out on the lash. With comments like "A full monty will sort me right out". Then they're annoyingly giddy until it arrives and they shut up

No it's amazing for hangovers

Jordan. 24-05-2014 12:39 AM

It's flawfree

Shaun 24-05-2014 12:39 AM

hate mushrooms, baked beans and fried eggs :yuk:

give me scrambled eggs, toast & bacon and i'm happy

Josy 24-05-2014 12:50 AM

Ours is a bit different to that seeing it's a 'Scottish Breakfast' we have black pudding, potato scone and square sausage with it.

I do think they are overrated a bit yeah I normally just have scrambled eggs with either sausage or bacon and mushrooms.

Same, and I can't have any visible grease or it makes me queasy.
Runny egg, fried bread, black pudding , sausage ? :vom:

Egg, sausage and bacon is lovely with some toast.

All the other add ons can do one. Unless I have spaghetti in place of the beans.

armand.kay 24-05-2014 01:31 AM

Umm no it's not what's wrong with you? :umm2:

andybigbro 24-05-2014 02:13 AM

I like fry ups yummmm not mushrooms though :yuk:

daniel-lewis-1985 24-05-2014 03:03 AM

Its just the perfect meal for that hangover on a Sunday morning.

Cant beat it.

Jords 24-05-2014 03:28 AM

I rarely have it but absolutely not.

Bacon, sausages, mushroom, fried egg, black pud, baked beans, tomato, toast :love:

I dont actually think Ive ever had all that on one plate... but being a student I dream about food.

Ammi 24-05-2014 04:16 AM

..I've always wondered why it's called a full English breakfast and not just an English breakfast ..I don't know anyone to have a half English breakfast or a part English breakfast/it's odd...it's not personally for me ...

MTVN 24-05-2014 08:19 AM

I think overrated but then there's quite a few things in it I don't like; mushrooms, baked beans, eggs. If I'm really hungover as well then I don't really fancy scoffing a mountain of food, wouldn't be able to stomach it

Prefer just having a bacon roll really

Sophiee 24-05-2014 08:56 AM

I don't like any of it so yes I think it's incredibly overrated.

Jay. 24-05-2014 08:58 AM

no, omg now I need one ;(

Cherie 24-05-2014 09:01 AM

Certain elements I won't eat like fried bread :yuk:, and dodgy looking sausages. Scrambled egg with bacon and a slice of toast and a half a tomato if someone is offering thanks.

Crimson Dynamo 24-05-2014 09:04 AM

I love it but rarely have it. I am having a traditional english seaside holiday this summer and will have the full monty each morning, with everything on the plate.

oh baby

thesheriff443 24-05-2014 09:05 AM

if you get a bad one then its overrated also you have to be hungry to really enjoy it.
I love the mcdonalds sausage.

I had a massive one yesterday called the big daddy, tried a new place while out in town, tasteless beans toast done one side, one egg too runny, under done bacon far to salty.
they get one shot, wont be going there again.

Crimson Dynamo 24-05-2014 09:11 AM

I used to go to the sheperdess in old street, london

many times a full monty rescued me from a hangover that could have launched a ship

:nono:Members of the Knitting Club need to look after their arteries. A full English LT you won't survive your English holiday, and if the hardened arteries don't put you in hospital, the depression from all that rain certainly will.

Rarely ever have one, I do when in Scotland as I always feel hungrier there,however I love the square sausage that Josy mentioned, it tastes different to me.

One thing I couldn't have on the plate however is black pudding, I loved it as a kid until I was told what it was.

Josy is always bragging about her square sausage :idc:

There's a full Irish breakfast as well isn't there? I can't remember what's different though but I've seen it advertised at the old local Irish club.

I hardly ever have one but they are amazing :love:
