    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?

            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

            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.

                I didn’t say it wasn’t. Fried butter is also delicious. I was just making a comment as to the availability of the dishes in their respective countries.
