I thought all you gastronomes might be interested in this information about the Great British breakfast, scanned in from my son’s Health and PE textbook. The book is explaining about the breakfast customs of various nations.
Anyone for juice, fried eggs, broccoli and ham (sic)?
That is ridiculous. Everyone knows Brits don’t use tableware.
Please post some entries on other countries.
I bet the editor was from Scotland or Ireland and was just taking the piss. 
Eh?

Double Eh?
The Americans also have cutlery, but not crockery, because as you can see they’re using the same plate as the Brit for their yummy concoction.
MMMM broccoli for breakfast! Throw in some eggplant and zuccinni and I’m game! Ew! Americans eat pancakes with syryp for breakfast! Ew!
They are able to fly as a result of that fine nutrish-fest! The Brits are prolly off in the khazi.
Americans eat cornflakes sprinkled with severed glans? That explains a lot.
Eh? [/quote]
You never went to a Fredfest.

You never went to Greedclub.
Still none the wiser, but never mind.
The Americans somehow remind me of ancient Egyptians.
Great pics, smithsgj! Got time to post any more?

At least they got that one right. Everyone knows raisins aren’t fruit. :loco:
What does the book say about the health and fitness aspects of the food?
This German man seems a lot more interested in his black tea than his nice toast and hebao egg :s and also ham.
Hmm, the German set-up looks the best so far. I’m all for broccoli, but not first thing in the morning…
I was being ironic. I struggle to stomach toothpaste in the morning. Never could understand how people could drink coffee! Urgghhh!
Don’t swallow. Didn’t yer mother teach you anything?
Agreed.
However, from the picture that doesn’t look like a poached egg but it may be the resolution of the scan.
You just overtook the others with the post of the year. 
[quote=“elektronisk”]Agreed.

Hebao isn’t poached. It’s one kind of fried egg–“over-easy” I believe.
And finally the rest of the international community. Seems to me like the Israelis get way the best deal.
I’ve never actually come across shaobing youtiao, or thought of mantou as the kind of bread one might want to use for a sandwich, but I guess it’s all about the education.
