Apparently,you can toast potato waffles! I've been putting them in the oven all this time. They are a great break-water between the beans and the egg on a fry -up. Can't have beans and egg touching each other.

You're confused Lucy. They do indeed make a great break water to hold the beans back.....from touching the sausages. It's fine for beans and eggs to be in contact, but sausages? No, that's the breakfast of a psychopath!

Well there's a first. I'm fine with any or all constituents of a fry up being in contact but I've thought that the most common complaint would be egg on bean contact. An adversity to bean on sausage action would be a rarity in my experience.

What a load of waffle. Yez need to flick the bean, skin the aul' sausage, and ram it into those eggs!

Sounds kind of sexy when you say it like that:D:

But no, I stand firm on my principles, beans and sausages must be kept separated at all times. For an emergency breakfast scenario, I find the best method is to install a peace wall built from pudding or waffles, but obviously if you are preparing the meal yourself, it's best to keep the the beans in solitary confinement from the get go. Being the classy gentleman that I am, I usually wolf them straight from the tin.

Arguing over which parts of breakfast touch another part? What are you, big enders or little enders? Or a bunch of wierdos? You do know it all ends up mixing in the stomach right?

Edit: I see Wibbs has picked a side. Say no more Wierdos it is so. :P

I say beans on a fryup plate is the breakfast of nutters. Or Englishmen. Which can sometimes amount to the same thing. NO Irish breakfast fry should have baked beans within an asses roar of the plate.

Neptune was the first planet to be discovered purely by mathematical prediction as opposed to direct observation.
Since it’s discovery in 1846 it has only completed a single orbit around the sun.
Neptune is the smallest and most dense of the gas giants.

I'd eat it anyway. Savoury and sweet is a very common food combination. Some people put ketchup on steak and other meats and that's got a lot of sugar in it. I suspect if enough people of influence started suggesting steak and a particular flavour of ice cream as a Thing(tm) it could take off.

Beans with a fry is perfectly acceptable as long as they are in a ramekin.

Mens average body temperature has dropped in the last 150 years in the US and is now 1 degree F lower than then while women temperature has dropped by 0.58 degrees F in the same period, probably due to a healthier environment.

Roald Amundsen arrived at the South Pole on December 14th 1911. Scott arrived on January 18th 1912.

Nobody else set foot on the South Pole until October 31st 1956, it has been continuously inhabited since later that year.

There's a beautifully detailed map of Antarctica here: https://i.redd.it/tb27tjcvb5l21.jpg

AFAIK the Chileans have sent pregnant women to give birth their as a way of strengthening their claim to Antartica.

The Dorobo People in Kenya and Tanzania have a unique way of getting their meat. They find a pride of lions that are feeding on a fresh kill in the daytime, then walk up to them while they're feeding and cut off some meat. The lions are usually startled and run away.

At current rates of usage, humanity uses an amount of oil each year roughly equal to half the volume of Lake Michigan.

Their diet consists mainly of Eucalyptus leaves which are poisonous to most animals. Koalas can digest it but theres very little nutrition in them and they're hard to chew. They have to chew the food to the maximum to extract any goodness from it. They're lethargic all the time because they've no energy.

They also haven't evolved and their teeth are often ground down from eating which means they cant eat and a lot of them starve.
