Most of that sounds good, but I'm drawing the line at the blood and organ meats.

You can even get a good fry up in Vietnam. Oasis bar Ha Tien. About $4

should come with a steaming pot of English Breakfast Tea (Twninnings of course)
I'll do one every now and then,
Eggs, Irish or English bacon when I can find it, Heinz beans (not baked beans, slight differnce) sliced tomato fried taters & Onions,
and of course, toast,
full American Made English Breaky,
we were in London almost 11 yrs ago,
breakfast each day was a buffet style English Breaky at the hotel (and damn tasty) lunch was light, wherever we were near, and dinner was Fish N Chips at a local Pub (the Albert, fantastic) with a couple pints of real Cask ale

Decades ago, we used to make an english breakfast on occasional Sundays with eggs over easy, sausage links, bacon, baked beans, and sourdough rolls. Guinness was served on those occasions .

We were served this every morning on our honeymoon in Ireland in 2912.
I'm very confused by the whole baked-beans-for-breakfast thing, does anyone know how this actually came about?

It's not the same bacon as what we eat as bacon at breakfast. The fry-up bacon is normally loin bacon and un-smoked, basically more like ham. The Brits do eat pork belly bacon, but they call it "streaky" bacon and IIRC it's not as common or popular as the loin bacon.

Beans for breakfast?
And blood sausage?
There's reason we see Italian restaurants, French restaurants, Asian restaurants, Mexican restaurants, etc. and we never see English restaurants.

This guy had a great take on the English beans-at-breakfast thing. It's too bad he's no longer with us.

After discovering it several years ago, our first stop after an overnight flight to Dublin is now The Brock Inn on the Slane Rd. (N2) just north of the airport. The full Irish breakfast restores you after what is usually a night with little sleep.
