The English breakfast is usually made up of fried eggs, bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes and bread. Sometimes, other ingredients are added, like black pudding, a sausage made from blood, or fried potatoes called hash browns. People from around the world may imagine us getting up and eating all this food every morning before setting off to work or school.
传统意义的英式早餐包括煎蛋，培根，蘑菇，西红柿和面包。偶尔还会配血肠和薯饼。世界各地的人们都认为我们每天早晨起床后要吃掉这么多才去上学或上班。
In reality, it would be impossible to eat a full fried breakfast every day without serious consequences on your health. Instead, for most people, the warm and salty breakfast is a treat for rainy Sundays. It is comfort food, to be eaten with family when you get up late and have time to enjoy it. In my family, perhaps around once a month we will eat a fried breakfast, but at lunchtime! Pubs often serve the English breakfast all day long, so you can even have it for dinner if you want.
现实情况是，如果每天吃掉这样一大盘煎炸的早餐对健康是不利的。而对大多数人来说，温暖的咸味早餐更适合下雨的周日。只有当无需早起且时间充裕的情况下，才会很享受和家人一起吃这样一顿舒服丰盛的早餐。对于我家而言，大概一个月才会有一次这样的煎炸早餐，并且还是在午饭时间才开始吃！酒吧里面这样的英式“早餐”是全天供应的，所以你甚至可以把它当晚餐享用。
So what do we really eat for breakfast in the UK? Cereal and toast are popular choices, and so is European breakfast food like croissants.
那么在英国我们早餐到底吃什么呢？麦片和吐司最受欢迎，当然还包括欧式早餐中的一些食物比如牛角面包。
