  • I'd like to say, anybody being snobbish about a "fry up" that includes "baked" beans can go eat a bowl of cereal.
  • Potatoes remind them of the 5 million Irish they starved to death. It's a big no no.
  • Is it fried? Is it potatoes?

    It works.

  • What the English call "Hash Browns" and what you'd get from a USA Waffle House are two different things.
    English hashbrowns are more like "Latkes"  but denser and less lacy crispy bits.
    Their "hashbrown" is mostly leftover mashed potatoes, dusted in flour and pan fried in a hockey puck shape and similar density. Also..a ham steak is not "Bacon"

    Well, it's got Orange Jews on the table.
  • America breakfast is spared the less tasty add ons. Gravy, biscuits (scones for you POMS), eggs (any style), fried potatoes.

  • I'm enjoying my big weekend breakfast served on a bed of hashbrowns and getting a kick out of this whole thread.

    /more coffee, please
  • Tomorrow I'm making a crispy hash brown Belgian waffle with shredded potatoes, corned beef and scallions after I cook up a cheap supermarket corned beef today. Will serve with sour cream and apple sauce.

    I couldn't imagine sleeping on a bed of hash browns let alone eating breakfast on one.

    Why do Americans hate baked beans so much?

    Americans have a weird concept of 'breakfast foods', and think you're supposed to only eat certain foods at that time of the day.  (And make a big deal of it if you have 'breakfast for dinner')

    Baked beans are allowed during a barbecue, but they're not an everyday food.

    Many slow cooked but cheap foods (oxtails, shank, pulled pork, chili, etc) go through a weird phase where they're considered food for the poor and then somehow become delicacies in the right context.  I don't know if that's for meat only, but beans have not gone through that process.

    You don't sleep on it, you eat your breakfast on it.

    You sleep on the mashed potatoes.

    Pretty sure Lobster went through that cycle too.

    We don't hate baked beans. It's really popular in America. We just don't eat it for breakfast like normal people.

    OK, I personally don't like baked beans.

    I grew up poor and "beans and taters" was often dinner, but I never learned to enjoy the beans. I don't like the texture, and, confidentially, I don't digest them well. They give me the wind something fierce.

    That said, I just don't think the barbecue/tomato sweetness goes well with savory stuff. Personal taste.

    Besides, all the stuff I listed can be cooked up in a half hour first thing in the morning, fresh and hot. When are you supposed to slow-cook the beans? Night before? Warmed up isn't the American Way.

    Anyway, eat what you like.
  • I'll be over here with my chili over scrambled eggs for breakfast while you folks argue.
  • Now I wish I had sausage for biscuits and gravy.
  • Bubble & squeak?

    Americans dont eat anything for breakfast like normal people.

    I find your lack of pork based breakfast meats disturbing.
