Historically there is no set version of a full english. What you describe is just your version. It will be, entirely, a social construct. This is why the full english varies so much, its different traditions in different areas and families being passed down, giving everyone a different vision of what it is.
Its similar to how everyone has their own christmas traditions, or how fish and chips in the north tend to be more traditionally served with gravy mushy peas and bread+butter. Whereas in the south, typically, they are sold with just ketchup or mayonnaise. But again, not exclusively. They only requirement is a fash and some chips. Everything else is just a variation of that but still counts.
This is why i belive that there only needs to be a few core ingredients for a full english to qualify as a full english. After that its all tradition and preference.
I think that a full english isn’t an exclusionary meal. I think there are a few factors it needs to be in the category of full english but that there are many variations and additions or subtractions that still count.
In my opinion the only things required for a full english are any 4 of the following:
- fried eggs
- sausages
- bacon
- beans
- toast
Anything less is not “full” and anything more is a variation of the full english.
Hash browns? Sure! ulsterfry? Go for it! Mushrooms? Absolutely! Tomatoes (grilled of course) yes please! Black pudding (not for me) bring it on!
But there is no singular thing that makes it a full english, it just has to have enough of the core ingredients to meet the criteria.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Lay's drastically rebrands after disturbing finding: 42% of consumers didn't know their chips were made out of potatoes | Fortune0·6 days agoMust be a US thing, in the UK they are easily one of if not the most popular brand of crisps (chips) they are called walkers here but the logo is the same. We have stricter regulations on what is classed as food in this country though.

Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish0·13 days agoOk, so, you are not a fascist country, you are a country run by fascists with fascists in it. But this doesn’t represent the values of the entire population. Especially when trump rigged the election (by his own admission) that means that not even the majority are fascists. And then you have to exclude all those who voted for trump because they were duped by his campaign who aren’t fascist and are just more republican and 4ight leaning than left.
I feel the same way about israel and palestine. We are quick to speak to the separation of hamas and palestine as a whole, but when it comes to israel, the same voices are shouting its the whole country and not just a genocidal organisation and their followers.
I think its an important distinction.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish0·13 days agoThats a fine argument, and i agree with you. But I’m not talking about people who understand the implication behind naming the country and not the individuals. I am specifically saying that there are swathes of people who hear the word israel and its not a government, its not a country, its a terrorist, its a more abstract scary monster thing and for those people, it shifts blame from the government, to the country as a whole. Just like what happened with antifa. Antifa doesnt mean anti fascist to idiots. It means terrorist.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish0·14 days agoAre you a fascist?
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish0·14 days agoOk, but fascism is wildly popular in the USA right now. Would you make the same argument there?
Or, like me, are you more inclined towards believing that more likely a few terrible people in power have sway with a vast number of easily led racists and that mischaracterises the whole country?
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do companies always need to grow?0·15 days agoI guess because otherwise you have something more akin to communism.
Which is a big scary monster and the biggest economies in the world would rather suppress a system the levels the playing field and helps everyone than give up their dollary-doos.
I think about this from time to time.
Its like, hey we make a product and it costs this much to make and we make this much profit, so that should be it. Thats how much this product makes. Dunzo. Next muffin. But it never works that way, once they have found the sweet spot where the product is useful and works well whilst also selling for a price that pays for production development and wages then it becomes about cutting costs to increase profits and that takes the form of using cheaper materials, paying lower wages, firing staff, incorporating planned obsolescence so people need to buy more. All in the name of profits and bonuses.
Its disgusting, it damages society, the environment and warps peoples minds so that people like donald trump exist and i hate it.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Greta Thunberg says she is being detained by Israel in cell ‘infested with bedbugs’0·15 days agoI read it as saying she is a “straight up dude”. Was that not the intention?
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish0·15 days agoMaybe instead of everyone calling it isreal and palestine, they should say the isreali government and innocent people.
They should say Netanyahu is committing genocide.
Saying israel instead of directly naming the culprits is sort of like when people say antifa. In the case of antifa it makes bad actors able to demonise the word and make it seem like a bad thing, so it can be used to twist peoples minds and make them think its a bad thing.
In the case of this genocide, it dehumanises the people committing the atrocities and diverts blame to the word instead of the people. Which has the effect of people like Netanyahu being able to reassociate the word with the israeli people and the jews.
So it absolutely isnt antisemitic to say israel is committing genocide, but it is unhelpful to divert the blame from the real asshats in charge.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•We don't use the word 'fascist' because we wish harm on anybody. We use it because words mean things.0·16 days agoYeah, some more news is one of my favourites. I tend to listen to it like a podcast when i am driving to and from work. But the visuals help sometimes.
Its a great showdy.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are there actually any good mobile games?0·21 days agoI really like the polybridge series of games. Bridge puzzle game worh great mechanics.
Lots of good PC ports. The Kotor series and Baldurs gate 1 and 2 and icewind dale ports are good.
Autochess is fun. Lots of opportunities to spend money but none are important, just cosmetic.
Balatro is good (if you like that game as i do)
And also a series of games called “doors” are fun to pass the time. Like a puzzle box where solving one element opens another until the door is opened.
It is 99% crap on the stores though. I tend to get ports and emulators for most of my mobile gaming.
It really was. If i recall it was smoked for 4 hours and came with this lovely korean style ketchup.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Should access to computers and the internet be a basic human right?0·22 days agoI want to say yes. Because it is absolutely so necessary to life these days.
But i equally want to say no! You should need to get an internet drivers licence for that shit! Some people are so susceptible to scams, fake news and propaganda that having access to a rectangle that thrusts it down your throat, pretty much unfiltered, is fucking dangerous.
😞 i know.
