    As a Brit I am DEEPLY offended… It’s beans ON toast! Beans and toast does not highlight the important fact that the beans must be placed on top of the toast. Do you expect me to separate my “beans and toast”… Or put toast on beans like some hooligan!!!

    Everything else is pretty spot on to be fair.

      I confess I sometimes put the beans in a small bowl and dip my toast in or scoop it on with a fork. Nonetheless, I refer to this and beans on toast.

    Ants can’t lift 5000x their own weight but maybe OP is being British and using commas as decimal points.

      Britain doesn’t use commas for decimal points, that’s a mainland European thing.

        Also if OP was British, they’d have put ‘beans on toast’. What they put makes me feel a bit uncomfortable.

          i guess beans and toast implies that you’re having them separately on different plates

    Everything but the beans and toast and queen loyalty applies to Americans, too.

      If you think Americans have an innate instinct to line up single-fine in queues, you clearly haven’t seen queues in other countries.

        I lived in Germany for 10 years, so I certainly saw the lack of respect for the queue there! But that was in the 80s-90s, maybe it’s better now.

          I don’t think we Americans are bad at it, but I don’t think we’ve got anything on the English or the Japanese (bonus, and pardon the links to the bad place), not enough to consider it a markable trait of ours. I suspect we’re probably middle to high-middle in queuing globally, although I won’t claim to be the most world-traveled or knowledgeable person.

            Yeah, my experience is primarily from noticing how prevalent line-skipping was in Germany in my childhood compared to the US. As I said, people do it, but it’s VERY frowned upon.

      The people accept Charles but I wouldn’t say they are loyal to him like they were to his mom.
