With the RWC in Japan, most matches are at Breakfast time for Europe and South Africa.
So what makes a Rugby-Watching breakfast? Poll is limited to 10 options :(
Feel free to add details in posts

A full English is the only acceptable option.

Absolutely, I wouldn't have I course silly things like cereal even if allowed more options


Personally...
Bacon (grilled)
Sausage (oven)
Beans
Eggs - scrambled, over-yolked
Hash-brown / Potato Waffle - Fried potato is also good, hutni can never be bothered
Fried bread - baguette, fried in bacon dripping

Cuppa tea (beer is just wrong with breakfast, even when it's an evening meal)

But you've put salmon. Who has salmon in a full English?

As befits a man of the people like myself, I eat Hovis white. Devoid of any nutritional value whatsoever.

Love that stuff. With chips or cheese and pickled onion/crisps or fishfingers or peanut butter or breakfast, its the nuts.

I rather like sourdough, and I don't really like white slice other than for bacon and sausage sandwiches (though plain not toasted), no idea why white slice works so well

is that a Fuji oyster?

I have had an evening drinking hot Sake after a match- we had a great Japanese lad playing for our 2's- never touch it again.

Depends on the quality of the bacon. Unsalted dry cure back gets brown, cause it's a crime to do anything but accentuate that flavour. Anything less gets ketchup and lots of it.

I'm notionally aware people are free to choose as they will and tastes vary, nonetheless if must have Brexit then one can but hope the sort of person who'd put ketchup on breakfast is kicked out of the country in short order, just disgraceful and frankly wimpy behaviour. I am going to lose a child if this standard is upheld, but sacrifices must be made to ensure our nation's morals are sufficiently pure

Sorry, I thought we'd slipped onto discussing a bacon sandwich (2015 called and would like their political debate back). If we're talking about full English, then the baked beans provides all the lubrication it should need and the correct answer to a sauce is none.

Jesus wept, baked beans are perfectly serviceable as a cheap and reasonably nutritious meal option, on brown toast for lunch or on a jacket potato for dinner, though if going cheap turning on the over to cook some jacket potatoes rather defeats the point, but they don't belong on a breakfast plate. You can have brown sauce, egg, mushrooms and grilled tomato, but that's it for the softer/saucier side of things. The world is going to hell in a hand basket when we allow baked beans onto a fry-up
