And you can shovel them onto your toast.
Black pudding also needs English mustard. It isn't black pudding without it!

Hell yes! Along with good quality sausage & bacon, hash browns, mushrooms, tomato and fried egg on normal toast.

How do you manage to eat your full English whilst holding the beans?

Hash browns? Weirdos. Up here it's all about the fried tattie scones.

I can't think of any other foodstuff that has risen so steeply, so quickly

This thread has got me yearning for the days of Littlewoods breakfast on Sauchihall Street, Glasgow, 6, 8 or 10 items including fruit pudding, a pot of tea or coffee and plenty of change from a fiver - glorious.

Love them. Doesn't feel like a proper brekkie without them.

The best, I live in Yorkshire now, and we don't get it down here - I have occasionally put a bit of sorreen loaf or hot cross bun on my breakfast for old time sake, but it's not the same.

put a runny egg on your black pudding to make it moist, not baked beans.

I just don't like them with breakfast. When did they become a traditional part of an English breakfast?
They're nourishing, the same as most other items in a full English. I love them.

I wish I could eat a full English breakfast. They always smell amazing but I can't eat much at breakfast time. A slice of toast and a cup of tea is my lot Any more makes me feel sick.

But if I could eat it I would have beans as well. The more the merrier

Anyone with Heinz shares must be laughing all the way to the bank, it seems to be a better investment than gold or property at the moment
Because the supermarkets all make their own beans that taste as good as theirs....so they have to put the price up to maintain the illusion of a better quality product

And beans are essential to a fried breakfast. You need something moist on the plate unless you like tinned tomatoes and i dont.

IT MUST have beans!!!! it brings it all together, could do without the tomato and sometimes you even get mushrooms I don't who thought they could bring vegetables into it, is it supposed to prevent the heart attack while eating?

Beans are fine, a tablespoon is enough though, I find them quite filling.

I'm neutral on the subject. If they are there I'll eat them but if they are absent then it's not a disaster. Tinned tomatoes however are a total no-no.

The great thing about a "Full English" is that is means something different to everyone.

Oh beans are the best part! It's kinda the reason why I only really have fry ups at home because I have 2/3 of a tin with mine, my flat mate has 1/4 tin and I have the rest, all over the bacon, sausage etc. when you go to a cafe they NEVER give enough beans grrr
