Its still weird to me how English breakfast is (that much of) a thing.

Like a couple of centuries ago for the difference in the sheer standard of living, sure, maybe at that point it was luxurious in terms of ingredients alone, ... but still?

English breakfast is like the only decent thing to come out of that place

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

Which isn't a high bar, but I agree with you.

Bri'ish food isn't that bad, I mean the yanks deep fry butter for god sake.

Yanks do? If anything that would be more of a southern thing, but I don't think its a common thing anywhere other than as fair food or something

It even isn't really a southern thing, its an attention grabber for capital. No one eats or thinks of deep fried butter save for those that go to fairs and get it waved in their face.

Yeah that's what I figured

Fried butter is like a novelty fair food over here, it's not a real dish.

Blood pudding in the UK, on the other hand . . .

Edit: also I'm pretty sure Scotland would deep fry tf out of some butter

Blood sausage isn't just a UK thing, variations are found in pretty much every cuisine that eats meat. And it's not even like its super popular in the UK, its very often not even included in a full English breakfast.
