Not a bad looking effort either, no black pudding or tattie scone, and some iced coffee looking abomination over a good builders tea
keeps it from perfection, but good go. Glad you liked it.
Yeah, I haven't found any coffee shop around me where I can buy myself something better than instant coffee for home, so when I saw they had coffee I had to go for it!
There's been a real boom in roasters over here in the UK over event years. No idea how you like your coffee but I love Roaring Stag up in Ballater, Scotland. They so online delivery, if you like a real dark roast their Dark Lochnagar is great.

Hey mate,
After seeing your post, curious I went to check what you post. And found a very interesting post of your called The Science of Why People Hate Vegans it's a great post with a great video I just watched fully of BiteSizeVegan.org
This comments makes you look a bit more "5:37" than "5:31" Seems like your doing a bit of "5:46" and a bit of "7:03" Especially this part, I would totally invite you to listen to it, it's very interesting.
I would even go to say you are right now actively participating to why people say those things at 10:12
Watch your own posts, you'll learn a lot, the video was very interesting.
To any UK vegetarian or vegan watching this except him, I would like your help
I'm a bit overwhelmed right now learning so much different brands, and products. I've got an Aldi near me where I got some "Planet Menu - Vive le Vegan" Soya Chicken" and found some fake steaks too so I'm quite happy as taht's what I usually buy for myself at home
I've been told there is also a Tesco around me, and I was wondering if anyone could tip me some good plant-based meat replacement brands that I would find at Aldi next time I go back or at Tesco, and if you knew if there was any Oat Milk? I usually buy Oat-ly in France, but I haven't found it yet at Aldi. If you have any tips fro brands or maybe specialised stores brands I can find, it would be a pleasure to get your help on that
As a veggie, just wanna say I bloody love this response here. And as a UK person, welcome! I remember you saying you were due to move here, in that thread about wholesome communities recently. Hope you settle in fine!
(We don't do Tesco or Aldi so can't help you with specific brands of things, but the UK is very veggie-friendly so honestly you'll be able to pick up some decent stuff wherever you shop. Experiment and you'll soon find your new faves. Oatly is pretty widely available here too)
Oatly should be widely available, otherwise most supermarkets now make their own brand. Personally I'm a soya milk drinker, so can't really recommend any though.
As for meat replacements - there are a lot, you can pretty much replace anything now from nuggets to donner to roast (like roast "chicken" or "beef", either whole or in pieces) to cold cuts. It's hard to say which you would like because they vary in texture and flavour, so I'd just start trying them out!
Some brands I personally enjoy - Squeaky Bean, Oumph, Vivera. But most supermarket own brands to really good stuff nowadays, even Iceland (if you don't have a store close by, they all deliver).
Hey, welcome! While I'm not a native, I've lived here for a few years now and would be happy to share some info!
I have to say I've been pleasantly surprised by the amount of vegetarian stuff you can buy in most supermarkets here. My go-to for just adding a meat replacement into a dish is any of the "Quorn" branded stuff. I will say though that normally it needs quite a bit of salt added to it. Especially the mince is great though if you want to do something like a stir-fry or burritos.
Their cold-cut looking selection is also pretty decent (the vegetarian ham slices etc), I prefer the vegetarian over the vegan options though, I think they taste a bit better
Other than that, there is a brand called "Linda McCartney", their stuff is pretty nice as well and on offer quite a lot.
I haven't been to Aldi and Lidl in a while now, not sure if they have any off-brand/own-brand options that are decent but I think it's worth a try. Anyway, welcome :)
And be careful when you're in traffic, people here are terrible drivers
Edit: oh and I forgot to say about oat milk: you can get Oatly at Tesco, Sainsbury's etc, there is also a nice brand called Minor Figures, they have it at Tesco and Lidl sometimes. Otherwise Asda (another cheap-ish supermarket chain) and Lidl have their own brand of barista-style oat milk, can't remember the name off the top of my head but it's easily as good as Oatly and much cheaper
This post is generating waves of nostalgia for /r/Fryup for me. We need somewhere on the Fediverse to post, lust over and critique other people's fry-ups.
protein ham
protein bacon
protein sausage
protein eggs
protein beans
protein/garbage blood sausage
garbage mushrooms
garbage tomato
starch hash browns
starch toast
...but the beans make it superior to anything americans do. seriously beans with breakfast wtf are americans doing wrong. missing beans that's what
but seriously...choose a protein or two and ditch the fucking mushrooms jfc wtf is wrong with people it's not an animal or a plant its a fungus i don't want to eat the stuff that grows at the base of your toilet.
ditch the mushrooms and it looks delicious. and add more beans.
The differences between the classic American and English breakfasts are one of those things that make travel between the two countries so pleasing, at least for me.
Different enough from one another to feel mildly exotic, yet similar enough to make you feel (mostly) at home.
Did wonder while I was over there ages ago why no one had shown them you can fry green tomatoes too for a bit of variety. Searing a ripe one just kinda makes a mess, lol.
Black pudding not just because of the name, but because blood sausage is a much wider category that black pudding is only one part of. Would be a bit weird to get Korean blood sausage with your full English
What's the ratio of Brits who always have full English breakfast vs other types of breakfasts like French (white coffee an croissant ) or cereals for example ?
