I love a "Full English" but am also very fond of the Dutch Brekky of Hard boiled eggs, sliced cheeses, sliced cold meats and several different breads with preserves and butter.
One of the best breakfasts I have had of late was fresh baked baps filled with scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, baps with hot bacon and baps with sausages. Help yourself at a buffet for 50 and only 20 of us turned up. I made a pig of myself redface:.
This most perfect spread was laid on at the Racecourse Ground, Wrexham (Football Club) in the Directors Dining Room and was paid for by HM Customs and Revenue who were holding a seminar to which I had been invited as a "local representative"
-
Sounds good Snoops!
The best on I've had recently - my own excepted redface: - was at a local pub:
Perfectly grilled bacon, a Cumberland sausage, smoked black pudding, eggs, baked beans,
grilled tomatoes, sautéed potatoes & Portabello mushroom cloud9:
I could barely move eeek:

A Google reveals the following:
Hold in the hot oil. When slightly brown, nudge the rosette off the mold using the tip of a knife. Let rosette fall back into the hot oil. Repeat the process until all the batter is used.
Hardly helps, does it? Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice.

Anecdotal reports of allergic reactions.
A risk of the decomposition advancing to a toxic state. (Folk wisdom in Sardinia holds that the presence of still-living larvae is an assurance that this has not yet happened.)
Risk of enteric myiasis: intestinal larval infection. Piophila casei larvae can pass through the stomach alive (human stomach acids do not usually kill them) and take up residency for some period of time in the intestines, where they can cause serious lesions as they attempt to bore through the intestinal walls. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and bloody diarrhea.[2]
rubschin: See what you mean.

Been dragged back into work early so I thought I'd irritate the canteen staff again. Walked in this morning and said I'd love a proper full english, looked at what was on offer and then suggested I'd be better off looking somewhere else. whistle:

It must have been a large cracker to get that lot on.
The ones we get will just support a smear of pate and half an olive.

Full english fry up eggs, bacon etc
Choice of fried bread - white, brown, wholemeal
When I asked the canteen staff why the wholemeal bread they answered it was the healthy option eeek:

What is the difference between brown and wholemeal? rubschin:
-
A lot!
But most "wholemeal" bread is adulterated by using ordinary flour mixed with it as it is cheaper.
-
The 'wholemeal' fried bread had bits in it. Having said that there isnt any real guarrantee that they weren't just carbonized fragments of previously fried food that had stuck to the bread... eeek:
-
You should know that. WHolemeal is what it means. Brown is white bread dyed brown
