For me a complete fry-up would consist of slices of Sausage and Bacon, Scrambled or Fried Egg, Baked Beans, Hash Brown, Black Pudding (yip), 2 slices of toast (some places do this fried) and a cup of tea. Red or brown sauce should be lavishly added. Many people add mushrooms and grilled tomato to theirs. This is not something you should eat very often, if i do its usually for my dinner as i rarely eat breakfast.

One of the greatest and most deadly things i have even eaten is a Breakfast roll which consisted of all of the above minus the beans in a roll. Amazing but you cannot move easily for days.

That is a good lesson to learn. It may come in handy in a few months.

As opposed to Continental Breakfasts which you most likely had a lot of on your last trip to European shores.

Continental breakfast! A baguette with cheese and ham, toast with butter and jam, croissants, pastries, orange juice and a hot cappuccino!

Randomly came across these, @AppleScruffJunior. Irish people tasting American snacks and Americans tasting Irish snacks:

*snip snap swoo*
 

For the record, I find Tootsie Rolls revolting. And they should have been warned you don’t bite into a Jolly Rancher.

I’ve never tried those American sweets- I think the only American things I’ve ever had were Doritos, Cheetos (which you can’t get in Ireland- last time I had them was in Spain about 5 years ago-yumyum) and Hershey’s chocolate (which tastes awful that I got up North). The Irish people they selected are very pale, we’re not all allergic to the sun! 

Wait ..you don’t have Doritos nor Cheetos in Ireland? WTF?

We have Doritos no Cheetos though, the only European country I’ve seen Cheetos in is Spain a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Ahh yes the Breakfast roll a godsend for the Irish construction worker during the Celtic Tiger years, good times. 

I prefer mine to be Jumbo

 

For me, a full Irish would be: rashers, sausages, tomatoes, hash browns, both white and black pudding, beans (sometimes), a fried egg, toast and soda bread*, mushrooms (for the fancy people) and a cup of Lyon’s/Barry’s tea! 

*If you go up North, you’ll get potato bread instead of soda and what do we say to potato bread?

*replace ‘cup’ with ‘potato bread’*

You ain’t kiddin’, @trcanberra. While in Paris one year, all my mom kept saying was that she wanted bacon and eggs for breakfast. Yeah, like that’s on every street corner. I told her to get over it and eat breakfast like the Parisians.

Band Aid 30 is coming later this year. Like with so many films the original was great, the sequel was bad and the third horrid so i fear for the fourth. And its been 10 years since Band Aid 20 came out!!? Flippin’ heck.

@parlance do you log on here in “stealth mode”? I rarely see your name in the “Currently Online: ” list, and yet your posts appear out of nowhere. It makes me laugh every time because it reminds me of “The Sidler” episode of Seinfeld.

Thanks mmm –  one of my favourite movies :)

 

[EDIT] I particularly like the irony of the plotline considering the fact that they dubbed Debbie Reynold’s vocals.

Leaving the whole calorie and health debate aside would anyone eat this burger?

Double Donut burgerImage Enlarger

…The Double Donut burger consists of two beef burgers topped with cheese, four bacon rashers and BBQ sauce, sandwiched between two glazed ring-doughnuts.

Yes that’s two glazed-ring donuts in place of the bap. It looks and sounds revolting. Who would ever want to eat two donuts at the same time as cheese, beef, bacon and BBQ sauce?
