kthomp · Post by **kthomp** » 15 years ago

Black pudding or blood pudding is an English term for sausage made by cooking blood with a filler until it is thick enough to congeal when cooled.

pig or cow blood mainly

yes we english like blood where vampires!!

a full english breakfast

scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, black pudding, mushrooms, baked beans, hash browns, and half a tomato sometimes fried bread.

and a cup of tea

very very fatty truckers eat them alot to wake them and feed them for the day so can be found at alot of service stations with cafe's

This is slightly different to the full Irish Breakfast (which is a close cousin of the full English

) but not much !

Fried eggs, sausages, rashers, black pudding, white pudding, mushrooms, tomato, fried bread and either soda bread or brown bread and enough tea to sink a battleship

Fantastic...

My weak, Coke-adapted American stomach would probably give out WELL before that point

Good gosh...we invented the "pop tart"--a kind of pastry thingy for your toaster--to make breakfast quicker and smaller

So the "Full American Breakfast" is something like--
2 pop tarts
1/2 glass of milk

The Full American College Student Breakfast, on the other hand, looks like--
A Hershey's chocolate bar
A bottle of Coke

Hmmm... kjackson, I think most people would add some pure sugar cereal to that and probably not drink milk, but coffee.

of course--

The Full American Breakfast (but this might depend on which part of America you're in)--
1 bowl Reese's Pieces cereal (literally 98% sugar)
In 1/2 bowl whole milk
1 Pop-Tart pastry (optional)
1 piece of toast (optional)
2-5 cups of coffee (adults only)

Wait, what about the doughnuts?? And wouldn't it be 2 or 3 poptarts, not just 1?

Doughnuts are only for things like church camp or Scouts meetings! That's a different kind of "Full American Breakfast" LOL...and maybe it is 2-3 poptarts these days...depends on how much of those pencil shavings--I mean, err, breakfast cereal--people eat

True, true, true... I guess the American breakfast really varies... But it usually has no nutritious content whatsoever

kthomp · Post by **kthomp** » 15 years ago

so in a sumary the english breakfast is very very fatty
and the american breakfast is very very sugary
