I must have Beans on  toast for breakfast four times  a week , I love it . Fish and chips is one of my favourites (but not for breakfast lol ) . Mushy pees = yuck , that's a northern thing lol they smother everything in mushy pees or gravy .

You say that like it's a bad thing ...  :D :D :D

Mushy Peas = Yorkshire Caviar
Gravy = Nectar of the Gods

You're bang on with those beers feller, I'll give you that. Wards was a good pint before it disappeared though. We make some damn fine real ales too mate, don't pay any attention to that mass produced muck   ;)

As for the peas and gravy, you foreigners are probably making it all wrong  :rofl: and although we've avoided the issue so far, a fishcake is two great slabs of potato with fish between and deep fried in batter (tastes great on a BREADCAKE with mushy peas  :P ). That breadcrumb covered mush you've been eating are called rissoles   :pok: :pok:  >:D >:D >:D >:D

... and for the record, EVERYTHING tastes better with lashings of Hendo's  :D :D :D

Growing up near the docks in southern California, some of my first solid foods were fish and chips. Man were they ever good, fresh catch, fresh battered, fresh fried (in lard as God intended), I can still taste them. Yum

Even though I had not heard of mushy peas until recently, these do look tasty:

Hot buttered toast, spread thinly with marmite, smothered in beans, and topped off with cheese.

I have never tried marmite, nor do I feel the need to either.  :D

As for mushy peas...I have never seen that up here in Canada either. Doesn't look all that appetizing to me. I know it would be tasty though. I just love French Canadian Habitant pea soup. Mushy peas I would imagine would taste similar.

Instead of Mamite, just sprinkle salt-water on your bread.... it really IS that bad!

Baked beans are good if you are a student and live alone or would like to do so... (HP or Heinz)

And mushy peas are a good way to serve peas that are going off.

..and lets not forget blood pudding......

Fish and Chips are great though, if done the right way.
oh, Real Ale and Real Cider rock!
+ Bacon and egg Sandwich does too.

BLACK PUDDING!!!  :drool: :drool: :drool:

Ironically if you look up black pudding on wikipedia, you'll see a picture on the right of ... BEANS ON TOAST (With black pudding, fried mushrooms and lorne sausage - YUMMY :D :D :D)

Fish and Chips are great though, if done the right way.

Bacon and egg butties actually rank far higher than fish and chips for me  :tu: :tu:
Condiment of choice ... HP fruity  :D :D

EDIT:
Mmmm...black pudding. :drool:

I must say that black pudding looks entirely gross.

But then again, my favorite breakfast is Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs.

Oh man,  That Cream Sausage gravy is so good, I think I'll go get some tomorrow for breakfast!  Surprisingly, Whataburger(a texas fast good joint) has two biscuits with white sausage gravy for under $2.  You wouldn't think it's that good but it's great!
