i pint with a morning fry up is the best. on sunday gone i went round me lil bro's and his mrs cooked us all up a super fry up, i accompanied mine with a cold bottle beer, great made the moto gp we were watching even better, moto gp is top top stuff
It's totally possible to cook a proper cooked breakfast without it being smothered in grease, I do all the time.
"They ate 3,000 calories in the morning, then they burnt 3,000 calories by lunchtime. Or died when the mine collapsed."
LOL
Thers is actually a bit more to this than meets the eye. Back in the day of the miners, the ruling classes wanted us plebs to have that 3000 cals to make them more money. Now, as Coren points out, we are slaves to their desks instead, and they don't want us to be ill because of overeating (or drinking, or smoking) because it means we are not making them even more money. So they get their little lapdogs in the press to start banging this sort of stuff about, and some of it sticks.
I shall be petitioning my brand new Conservative/Liberal Democrat Government for the banning of hash brown from any breakfast plate in the UK. I am not adverse to the odd hash brown outside of ones petite dejeuner but to me this is a serious breakfasting issue and along with other nefarious imports from the US of A, it is diluting our culture.

I would be willing to oppose such a petition. Hash Browns were originally from Switzerland, Swiss Roesti, and are an intergral part of a good English Fried Breakfast. If such a ban is implemented, will Danish Bacon surcome to the same fate?

Danish Bacon is more water than meat, the sooner they ban that crap from our shelves the better, buy british........you know it makes sense.
V Gary, I dont think we will ever see eye to eye on the hash brown issue. However in the spirit of coalition perhaps we can come to some compromise and campaign as part of a multi party solution. Especially if you agree about the Danish Bacon issue raised by ES Mike as I do. We could appear on the same platform and show a united front as we stand up for the English Breakfast, which after all, after the squillions of pounds of national debt and the promotion of Charlton Athletic Football Club, would and should be high on anyones political agenda......

Bacon.
Sausage.
Fried Bread.
Toast.
Black Pudding.
Beans.
Hmmmm....eggs are disgusting but you include black pudding!
"I'd like bacon that's been crisped to within and inch of it's life so when i put the fork in,it springs back and nearly hits me in the face.
I'd like beans that are cold on top,red hot in the middle and burnt and black on the bottom.
Also fried bread,but it musn't be crispy.Must be drenched in fat so it's nice and soggy and oozes fat all over the plate.
I'd like a fried egg that is so hard and rubbery i could pick it up and bounce it up and down on the floor.
Says wife: Hang on a minute.I havn't got time to do all that.
WELL YOU F****** FOUND TIME YESTERDAY!!!! GGGrrrrrrrrrr.
