Quoted: @Pesty @UKJohn View Quote What is the purpose of this summoning ? Beans on toast isn’t a meal, it’s just a quick snack when you can’t be arsed to cook. Needs propped Heinz beans. Comfort food. Attached File |

Quoted: There are things worthy of emulating in British culture. The cuisine is not one of them. View Quote Well, traditional British breakfast is good, so is the fresh caught Fish & Chips. Beyond that you are correct. But what are these others things worth emulating from British culture you speak of? Other than owning a Martini-Henry or Lee-Enfield, I know of none. |

Quoted: Beans on toast is not my thing, but an English breakfast can be pretty damned good after a night at the ol' pub. https://cdn.thelondoneconomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/d6209be9-how-to-make-the-perfect-full-english-breakfast-fry-up-scaled.jpeg View Quote Where is the blood pudding? |

Quoted: Awesome! I'll look next time in at fry's! I figured Id have to get them on Amazon or at a British market.

I identify as British these days.
This was a decent effort, OP. It could use some boiled mushrooms, though. |

Beans and toast?
Ok, I suppose. I’m more of a beans and rice kind of guy, personally. |
|
OP would have been better with regular baked beans. Some curry powder a few raisins, and a few tiny chunks of apple.
Nobody's going to waste bacon putting it in beans... that's an American thing. |

Quoted: Quoted: I didn’t even know it was a thing or even a british thing but I’ve had beans and toast. Now I know its not only me. Just wait till you try fried bread. Beans in tortillas (tacos or burritos) too! |

Quoted: When I was working in Australia folks here used to ask how the food was. I'd always reply, "very British, and you notice you never see any famous British restaurants or anyone talking about going to British cook school or classes". It's not that it's bad, it's just bland which I assume is why Indian, Malaysian, Indonesian, etc. were so popular there and in England. Just based on my own experience working with a fair number of Brits and Aussies over the years, most I've met don't tend to like hot spicy either. View Quote They were popular because they were cheap... and well, who doesnt like a vindaloo after 12 pints of lager? |

We called then Skinheads on a raft. I grew up on beans on toast and it was always a delicious, quick, snack.

Quoted: Well I took it as a given it would be with roast potatoes, 2 veg, gravy, and yorkshires... I could have also added the roast pork alternative for Sunday lunch too. View Quote I figured you did.. but a lot of the chicken nugget brigade here has no idea. We have a chain of pasty restaurants here.. sooo good. Some classic, some fusion. https://www.cornishpastyco.com/menu/ |

LOTS of places use it in recipes similar to how anchovy paste and tomato paste is used. However I do like it straight, but it is definitely its own flavor, it is good on toast as well of course. A little goes a long way. |

Been watching Hotel Inspector lately and can't grasp the idea of canned beans with breakfast.

View Quote Completely the wrong kinds of beans there mate, that must've been pretty sickly. A bit like saying you made a French style Brie & Cranberry Baguette but using cheese whiz, raspberry jelly and a bagel. For Marmite, true story, an American buddy of mine wanted to try it, I gave him a jar. Couple of weeks later he comes back and sez - 'man that stuff is STRONG, I ate it a week ago and can still taste it. It was brutal. How do you guys eat that stuff ?'. I sez yeah it is, it's sort of an acquired taste, I like it though. He sez 'no but literally, how do you eat it ? I couldn't get the tortilla chip far enough into the jar, so just spooned it out' |
