Dinner and lunch is a pretty much free-for-all, but why all the rules about breakfast?
Bacon sandwich, not problem, ham sandwich, weird. There really isn't much difference.
If you've ever had a cafe/hotel breakfast you'll almost certainly had a beef sausage at some point. But a beefburger, that's just wrong?
And when was it decided that haricot beans in a tomato sauce become completely normal, and why then not say, haricot beans in a white sauce, or kidney beans in a tomato sauce?
Chips, never for breakfast, oh but hash browns are ok?
And then the sauces, brown, fine, ketchup, knock yourself out....periperi or mayonnaise? No way!
It seems a very narrow menu is allowed and any slight variations, even completely logical ones, are met with revulsion. Is this peculiar to the UK? Obviously I know breakfasts around the world vary, but does the fanatical rule sticking also apply?
