Do Americans eat beans on toast

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

To me Branston baked beans are better than Heinz

Asda reduced salt is our choice, cheap but thick… Heinz are no where near them in quality these days

I was sat in the cookhouse at Sennybridge and one of the lads said ah granddad ball bags, I've never looked at a plum tomato in the same light again.

Comanches bo11ocks were on the galley menu…

Sh1t on a raft. Bet they don’t eat that either.

Ugh...Kidney Tobago

They do know how to do a good breakfast I’ll agree with that.

I was up state earlier in the summer and we went to this home style brunch place snd the home fries were incredible cooked with peppers snd onions.

My local café did beauties, topped with a fried egg or two and a side of bacon and sausage.

Some of the places serving hash browns were similarly good, so easy to make but not in the UK.

So where do we all stand on sweet breakfasts? I am a sucker for some decent French toast topped with blueberries and all sorts of unhealthy stuff.

That's not grits. Grits is weird porridge type stuff

I love grits, not sure why but I do.

Fruit salad as a starter is as sweet as I'll do. Not into the pancake and syrup thing at all, my dad loved it when he visited though.

This is my favorite sweet breakfast from my favorite Chicago breakfast spot:

Trio of French Toast -

1) Tres Leches - Fresh Challah bread soaked in our "Three Milk" egg batter. Grilled to perfection. Layered with fresh bananas, strawberries, sweet cream & are our homemade whip cream!

2) Rogers Park Extreme French Toast - Fresh Challah bread layered with our sweet cream topped with fresh bananas, fresh blueberries, candied pecans, sea salt caramel sauce, house-made berry compote, topped with homemade whipped cream & powdered sugar.

3) Cookie Butter & Banana French Toast - Fresh Challah bread French toast stuffed and stacked high with bananas, nut free cookie butter, drizzled with honey & vanilla bean sauce & topped with homemade whipped cream & powdered sugar.

Read a lot of American books, some mention beans and molasses, which I think sounds weird, when I see food on TV from America it looks horrendous. I’ve never been, my wife has, she was about 8 at the time, even then she says levels of obesity were incredible.
I’d still like to go, it’d be New England if I did

Went to a Subway take away in New York, so confused with the jargon I've never been in another one since.

Tried Grits once. An American friend (from Georgia where Grits is very popular) said to me "What you eating that s**t for? It's awful"

I'm giving grits ago this weekend, if I can find cornmeal in the shops, always fancied trying some of the food of the South.

Some of the savoury versions look decent.

Try alligator, just like Chicken.

Grits are for people who like polenta IMO.

My breakfast this morning was two pieces of toblerone.

Forgot to say...he was quite right...it was fcůking rank.

Coincidentally this article is in the Times this morning. Heinz 5 point plan for making beans on toast.

I thought you would be interested in this story from The Times:
Ignore our baked bean rules and you’re toast, says Heinz.

Watching a yank use a knife and fork always amazes me

Which is probably why a lot of them don’t attempt beans on toast

Most of them just use a fork, and attempt to cut things with the side of their fork - used to amused me no end.

That's fine, but not when combined on a plate with savoury stuff which a lot of them do - so the egg yolk runs into the strawberries of whatever.

Chicken fried steak (although I pass on the "gravy") is amazing - one of the best things the US has ever given us.

Now I'm thinking if I turned that into a parmo I might have a new delicacy that bridges the gap between Teesside and Tennessee
