But all the stuff on that "full english fry up" seems pretty high in cholesterol. You guys got people have heart attacks in their 40's over there? I try to eat oats once a day to keep my levels under control. I go crazy with cheese and meat.... feel like I'm going to cause problems soon or later.
Well, generally a full english is something you treat yourself to a couple of times a year/ once a month when you got a hang over, its not something you'd eat every day and again! Generally they're MUCH, MUCH smaller that than on that artical hahaha

Pretty sure its just come from better/better cuts of pigs, most of the American bacon shown from this website looks like it'll give you the shits for a week, it just looks processed to fuck.
English
American
Taken from the first pictures on google...Kinda prooves my point.
It has nothing to do with better cuts, they are just different cuts. American bacon uses the belly cuts of the pig which are more tender and fatty while UK bacon uses back cuts which and chewier like a pork chop.
I usually get my bacon straight from a farm we know and usually they do thick cut American streaky bacon. I swear one slice is like an inch thick sometimes, so good.

Why am I doing this to myself?

Soda scone & tattie scone, plus my granny used to add in some meat burger type thing that was amazing. Irish sausages are better too. I dont like beans, i tend to use Teletubby pasta shapes.

It isn't that hard to get a good breakfast. Get a frying pan and fry up some sausage or bacon. Once the meat is done add in some eggs, onions, tomatoes, peppers, and spices. Once this is all done put the filling in a tortilla and wrap it up tight. Wrap in tin foil and you have a good breakfast on the go.
