What’s the ratio of Brits who always have full English breakfast vs other types of breakfasts like French (white coffee an croissant ) or cereals for example ?

Mane25 ,

Almost nobody, it’s not meant to be a daily meal, more like once a week or so as a treat.

The differences between the classic American and English breakfasts are one of those things that make travel between the two countries so pleasing, at least for me.

Different enough from one another to feel mildly exotic, yet similar enough to make you feel (mostly) at home.

Did wonder while I was over there ages ago why no one had shown them you can fry green tomatoes too for a bit of variety. Searing a ripe one just kinda makes a mess, lol.

nandeEbisu ,

Fried green tomatoes are fairly common in the south, there’s even a movie called “Fried Green Tomatoes”

We don’t really have green tomatoes here. I don’t know why.

The animals we create are morally equivalent to our own children. They are owed the unconditional love and protection of their creators. The experiences of animals are real and matter. Their suffering is identical in nature to your own. It harms us when we take pleasure in cruelty and violence.

New to veganism, I see.

Kyoyeou OP ,

Mate here has 3 months of post on !veganism

fluke ,

I don’t have a problem with veganism. But frankly these militant type comments are utterly counter productive and only ever serves to push people against the cause.

Anyone who has been a vegan for more than 5minutes quickly realises that it isn’t the way to go about it. But I know they know this.

Kyoyeou OP ,

I’d really invite you to see my other comment responding to him, I’ve copied a post he made himself, and it’s on the subject of “Why people Scientifically hate Vegan” it was very interesting.

Also responding to this eating potatoes and Fake Soy Chicken, but I added a bit to much pepper sadly

Kyoyeou OP ,

Hey mate, After seeing your post, curious I went to check what you post. And found a very interesting post of your called The Science of Why People Hate Vegans it’s a great post with a great video I just watched fully of BiteSizeVegan.org This comments makes you look a bit more “5:37” than “5:31” Seems like your doing a bit of “5:46” and a bit of “7:03Especially this part, I would totally invite you to listen to it, it’s very interesting.

I would even go to say you are right now actively participating to why people say those things at 10:12

Watch your own posts, you’ll learn a lot, the video was very interesting.

To any UK vegetarian or vegan watching this except him, I would like your help

I’m a bit overwhelmed right now learning so much different brands, and products. I’ve got an Aldi near me where I got some “Planet Menu - Vive le Vegan” Soya Chicken" and found some fake steaks too so I’m quite happy as taht’s what I usually buy for myself at home

I’ve been told there is also a Tesco around me, and I was wondering if anyone could tip me some good plant-based meat replacement brands that I would find at Aldi next time I go back or at Tesco, and if you knew if there was any Oat Milk? I usually buy Oat-ly in France, but I haven’t found it yet at Aldi. If you have any tips fro brands or maybe specialised stores brands I can find, it would be a pleasure to get your help on that

Thank you in advance for any help!

j4yt33 ,

Hey, welcome! While I’m not a native, I’ve lived here for a few years now and would be happy to share some info!

I have to say I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the amount of vegetarian stuff you can buy in most supermarkets here. My go-to for just adding a meat replacement into a dish is any of the “Quorn” branded stuff. I will say though that normally it needs quite a bit of salt added to it. Especially the mince is great though if you want to do something like a stir-fry or burritos. Their cold-cut looking selection is also pretty decent (the vegetarian ham slices etc), I prefer the vegetarian over the vegan options though, I think they taste a bit better

Other than that, there is a brand called “Linda McCartney”, their stuff is pretty nice as well and on offer quite a lot.

I haven’t been to Aldi and Lidl in a while now, not sure if they have any off-brand/own-brand options that are decent but I think it’s worth a try. Anyway, welcome :)

And be careful when you’re in traffic, people here are terrible drivers

Edit: oh and I forgot to say about oat milk: you can get Oatly at Tesco, Sainsbury’s etc, there is also a nice brand called Minor Figures, they have it at Tesco and Lidl sometimes. Otherwise Asda (another cheap-ish supermarket chain) and Lidl have their own brand of barista-style oat milk, can’t remember the name off the top of my head but it’s easily as good as Oatly and much cheaper

Kyoyeou OP ,

Thank you so much! I’ll try looking for those brands around! I’ve actually almost entered into a motorcycle already, crossing the road I’m not watching on the right side yet, especially when there is a roundabout But the people here are very very very nice I have to say, or I am good to speak with nice people

DessertStorms ,
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

Oatly should be widely available, otherwise most supermarkets now make their own brand. Personally I'm a soya milk drinker, so can't really recommend any though.

As for meat replacements - there are a lot, you can pretty much replace anything now from nuggets to donner to roast (like roast "chicken" or "beef", either whole or in pieces) to cold cuts. It's hard to say which you would like because they vary in texture and flavour, so I'd just start trying them out!
Some brands I personally enjoy - Squeaky Bean, Oumph, Vivera. But most supermarket own brands to really good stuff nowadays, even Iceland (if you don't have a store close by, they all deliver).

Kyoyeou OP ,

Thank you very much! I’ll look for it

TeaHands ,
@TeaHands@lemmy.world avatar

As a veggie, just wanna say I bloody love this response here. And as a UK person, welcome! I remember you saying you were due to move here, in that thread about wholesome communities recently. Hope you settle in fine!

(We don’t do Tesco or Aldi so can’t help you with specific brands of things, but the UK is very veggie-friendly so honestly you’ll be able to pick up some decent stuff wherever you shop. Experiment and you’ll soon find your new faves. Oatly is pretty widely available here too)

Kyoyeou OP ,

Thank you very much, and I truly think the video was very interesting!

I have to say all the people I met are very nice and ready to help (but I’m guessing it’ll be a bit different when their will be a rugby match against France)

erusuoyera ,

BAH GAWD THAT MAN HAS (pig) FAMILY!

ohmesocorny ,

Oatly is widely available, even in the little convenience shop round the corner from me.

However, FUCK Oatly: “Oatly sues UK oat milk maker over trademark” www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57425162

Btw, Oatly lost.

Kyoyeou OP ,

Thank God they lost this is as childish as suing anyone that would use the word monster

ohmesocorny ,

Just noticed you mentioned Tesco. I use Tesco’s own brand oat milk for breakfast cereal. Confusingly, they have normal and long-life UHT oat milk. Get it from the fridge section, rather than the UHT stuff from the non-chilled shelves.

Kyoyeou OP ,

Understood! Will definitely try this out! Thank you very much!

jerkface ,
@jerkface@lemmy.ca avatar

Trademark laws are written in a way that obliges trademark holders to be very aggressive against potential infringement, or they risk losing the trademark.

Considerable overlap with kids that do graffiti and people who are anti-police.

CluckN ,

Yeah surprising lack of pro-police graffiti artists out there.

SaakoPaahtaa ,

How’s that surprising? As kids grow up they usually stop graffiti “art” and stop with edgy opinions on the society that surrounds them

uriel238 ,
@uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Anti-law enforcement sentiment has ceased being edgy since 2014 and the Ferguson Riots, which showed the world that police sometimes behave like undisciplined drunken desperadoes with military hardware.

Since then, we’ve had a steady stream of video from smartphones showing police routinely abuse their access to force… and are allowed to harm or kill with impunity.

SaakoPaahtaa ,

The world is larger than the US

smiling_big_baby_boy ,

The status quo is not sufficient for liberation.

Police are class traitors who brutalize and oppress us. They’re extracted from our communities to protect the interests of capital and private property.

The fascist pigs are a tool of the state. It maintains its power through a monopoly on violence!

SaakoPaahtaa ,

Like I said earlier, it’s tough to know whether comments like these are for real or parody.

Crow , to mildlyinfuriating in Air Canada changed my flight for the 3rd time, I'm now landing in Toronto 1 hour AFTER my next flight departure.
@Crow@lemmy.world avatar

The mistake was going to Toronto. Pearson airport is so astonishingly poorly managed for such an expensive project. Always avoid Toronto.

odium ,

LHR is also very poorly managed for such an expensive project. OP’s picking all the wrong airports.

scarrtt ,

Heathrow is literally 1984, I hate the place

BastingChemina OP ,

You make it sound like I have a choice, going from St Lucia to France is a challenge. It got worse since COVID.

I think I had issues on close to 50% of my flights, the worst one was a 2 days delay on the way to France and a 2 days delays on the way back but it’s only because I ended up taking a private flight from Martinique to St Lucia.

On the bright side the company paid for the hotel each time, so there is worse situation than being stuck in a hotel in the Caribbean.

Like being stuck in Toronto airport…

mycatiskai ,

If you can fly to Gatwick, it is likely cheaper because Heathrow has more airport fees. The train to Gatwick from London was great it had a screen in each cabin that tells you which is more or less full of people and even tells you if the toilet is vacant or out of order.

Pearson is the absolute worst. I’ll always try to use Hamilton if I can

bl4ckblooc ,

I transferred through Pearson before going home to BC a couple years ago. I had just finished a bunch of international travelling and couldn’t believe how bad the airport was. Even the amenities; the only place to eat outside security was Tim’s and some poutine place. The Ben Cambodia has a better designed airport (although it’s pretty new).

Blood sausage sounds yuk, black pudding is ... well I'm not a huge fan (hands in passport) but at least it sounds like it should be palatable.

bigbluealien ,

Black pudding not just because of the name, but because blood sausage is a much wider category that black pudding is only one part of. Would be a bit weird to get Korean blood sausage with your full English

correcthorsedickbatterystaple , to ukcasual in First Day in the UK, tested the most casual thing I could think about. Your English Breakfast is awesome!

english breakfast:

protein ham
protein bacon
protein sausage
protein eggs
protein beans
protein/garbage blood sausage

garbage mushrooms
garbage tomato

starch hash browns
starch toast

...but the beans make it superior to anything americans do. seriously beans with breakfast wtf are americans doing wrong. missing beans that's what

but seriously...choose a protein or two and ditch the fucking mushrooms jfc wtf is wrong with people it's not an animal or a plant its a fungus i don't want to eat the stuff that grows at the base of your toilet.

ditch the mushrooms and it looks delicious. and add more beans.

I’ve lived in the UK for nearly 20 years and see no benefit to having the beans anywhere near a full English plate.
