I spent a lot of time in England when I was a young woman in love with abloke from Portsmouth and never did I have beans on a breakfast plate anywhere. Just those greasy eggs, fried bread (greasier--not buttery) and those nasty broiled squishy tomahtoes and the shrooms (I never understood how anyone could make a mushroom into dark things that looked like turds).[/b]
I&#39; d forgotten about the fried bread. M767 I&#39;ve got to go along with you about "English mushrooms" they aren&#39;t the most appetizing dish I&#39;ve ever seen; at the time I thought it was just the way the chef at the hotel was preparing them....maybe not.
So if you&#39;ve spend a lot of time in England and never had baked beans for breakfast, I&#39;m thinking this whole beans for breakfast thing might be some elaborate hoax put on by the hotels for the tourists.

OK BRITSKI99...Paul, do you eat beans for breakfast?
