I’m obviously biased as a Brit, but anyone who can look me in the eye after having the experience of a full English (or Scottish/Irish, a proper full Welsh is definitely a subject of understandably niche interest) breakfast and a Sunday roast, and day we have shit food here is frankly a bit of a philistine.
And there’s more to the chippy than fish and chips
Edit: on re-read, I’m realising you might not be fully on board, have a proper one and you’ll understand. Also, I’ll have you know, we don’t fry our beans, and fried toast is a Christmas luxury
Oh it’s phenomenal, don’t get me wrong, it just has to be an uncommon treat for longevity reasons
A number of years ago, I lived near a greasy spoon cafe that did a sort of breakfast club sandwich situation with fried toast as the middle bread layer and the rest of the fry up distributed between the two decks of the sandwich
I don’t think I’ve ever been more set up for a day than after having that, though I’m pretty sure it would have been my daily allowance of everything
Not a brit, but I know the traditional “Full English” breakfast: Everything is fried. Even the tomatoes.
And the sausage is mush…
Honestly

Fried toast is FIT. Bloody lovely. My nan made hers taste like heaven (RIP)
What are you supposed to do with the grease in the pan after frying the bacon and sausages if not frying the toasts? Also, I don’t have a toaster.

Yep, totally agree.
