  • Douglas Adams had it right when he wrote that the British ate bangers for penance.
  • And if you're going to have cold toast (...the horror!), why bother toasting it in the first place? Just wait for a bit and use stale bread (or if you're in France, yesterday's bread)
    Well. I see where this is going now. So the battle lines have been drawn then have they, you cold toast eschewing marmalade eating swine?? Is this the final tally, then when we finally separate the men of courage and conviction from the godless knuckle-dragging butter melters who would oppress them?? Well I say "No!"... "No!" I say, says I. I will not go gently into that dark burnt crust! No! Because I will carry it upon high and no, you will not take this from me, I say! You may be a philistine who can't tell the difference between cold toast and stale bread, but NO sir! I. Will. Not. Submit.

    But seriously, if everyone prefers their toast hot then what the hell IS a toast rack for 'cause I haven't got a clue.

    And yes, I did in fact see Last Tango. But only once. It put me off pork for a really really long time.
  • Stale bread! Let them eat cake.
  • from Wikipedia for toast rack:
    By maintaining air gaps between the slices, the toast rack allows steam to escape from hot toast instead of condensing into adjacent slices and making them soggy. However, this increased air flow can also mean that the toast becomes cold more quickly.

    Breakfast - weekdays it's Honey Nut Cheerios. weekends it's Honey Nut Cheerios with the occasional hot, fresh, everything bagel.

    It's a torture device.
    "Look! More toast! ...and it's getting COLD!

    Often used by hotels and B&Bs to try and clear the dining area quickly by making everybody rush their toast before it gets cold.
    Bastards.
  • Hang on hang on hang on... let's AT LEAST establish that the reputation the French once enjoyed for decent food is dead in the water. Obviously, it will be dead in the water in a silver dish, with 85cm between tables and proffered by a ... a .... git.
  • ok...the tossing has beans at the heart of it; british dentistry + french cooking soon followed.

    up next> the german empire: engines, sausages + beer
  • Ooooh, German pastries for breakfast. Not healthy at all, but a good strudel is wonderful.

    Mmmmm... or a berliner!! Just watch out for the black sausage.
  • All fine and good but it don't hold a candle to Scrapple, umm, especially with baked beans. Well, maybe don't actually hold that candle...
  • Now that's more like it.

    A good breakfast to me will include a spread of pork roll (taylor ham to some), bacon, sausage, and SCRAPPLE! You can also include eggs and toast (warm with melted butter) if so inclined...
  • That Pork Roll looks suspiciously like Spam to me.
    And having read what goes into Scrapple, I don't want to hear another bad word about English food!

    Then of course there is the breakfast of champions:link.
  • there are two groups of people when it comes to breakfast.... oh wait, wrong site.
  • I always though there were 10 types of people: those who understand binary and...
  • HE HE

    That pork roll looks like SPAM. I've tried haggis. It wasn't particularly delicious, nor was it particularly gross.
  • No one will ever convince me there is a better breakfast food than the sausage bread from Hell's Kitchen in Minneapolis.

    Soooooo good.

  • As my daughter discovered, nothing beats a good Korean breakfast
  • That is disgusting. It's not breakfast, it's fish bait.

    Oooooh, there is a wonderful Korean restaurant by our house. One day I went there on a whim, and of course could not read a damn thing on the menu. So I got number one box lunch. I gasped when they brought it out, it was so pleasantly arranged. Oh, my my. Tasty, too. Next time I went, I got number two box lunch. I have never progressed to number three because I have enough trouble deciding between the first two. They only have these things Mon-Fri, so my husband tries to go there whenever he has a free weekday.

    Ok, back to fight club....lunch is WAY better than breakfast. Except when breksfast is eaten for dinner.
  • I'm sorry, you're right. They are more likely to be eaten for lunch. My daughter tells me that they look like Lorena Bobbitt had a field day.
  • Y'all know what Jeffrey Dahlmer said to Lorena Bobbitt?...."Were you going to eat that?"
