Fair enough, a traditional english breakfast usually just has the basics but a 'full' english breakfast can include anything from chips, hashbrowns, beans, bubble and squeak, fried toast etc.
Although chips arent really traditional, although served in all cafes, I think they were included in the breakfast in the article just to make it more difficult to finish.
It upstes me to be corrected by someone who eats chicken brains, fish eyes and Philippino babies foreskins.

But all the stuff on that "full english fry up" seems pretty high in cholesterol. You guys got people have heart attacks in their 40's over there? I try to eat oats once a day to keep my levels under control. I go crazy with cheese and meat.... feel like I'm going to cause problems soon or later.
Well, generally a full english is something you treat yourself to a couple of times a year/ once a month when you got a hang over, its not something you'd eat every day and again! Generally they're MUCH, MUCH smaller that than on that artical hahaha
not if you work on the rigs. i sometimes had one for my brekkie then i'd have another when night shift were gettin theres. got fat as fuck workin out there.

Fair enough but surely the word 'full' indicates that the breakfast features all the required elements?

Right, this is the law.
Two eggs
2 bacon rashers
2 sausages
A shitload of beans
A further shitload of mushrooms
two decent slices of black pudding (well done)
bubble and squeak
fried slice (although toast, butter, marmalade and a seven section newspaper is acceptable if time and budget will allow)
Enormous mug of tea
Post-breakfast snout
Spartacus on DVD
HEAVEN...and the only thing that can turn a deadly shitting hangover into a perfect, dreamlike Sunday.
Alternatively, you could have a pint and a packet of Quavers...but that way ruin lies.
