Default 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

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.

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.

I rarely have it but absolutely not.

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

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

..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 ...

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

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

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.

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

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.
