The egg looks nice but then I'm afraid it all goes down hill.

The sausages in particular look terrible.

I'm not a fan of scrambled egg or beans, and would rather not have streaky bacon.

2/10 due to the egg.

6/10 (point knocked off for streaky bacon). Looks pretty nice IMO, and I'm a real fan of the thin sausages.

Sausages look like they've been in oven not frying pan which is why the skin has taken on that texture

why are you proposing to eat a fry up with a steak knife?

what are the foxes glacier mints doing in the orange squash?

Delineation of beans and bacon is frankly messy.

Bacon looks tepid

Sausages disappointing in appearance?

Knife and fork wrong way round


All together a jumbled mish mash of disappointment, exacerbated by disappointing presentation

4 out olf 10.

I think the sausages are the closest thing to what boiled dog dicks would look like that this thread has seen.

I think ice in the OJ when this is a breakfast is also a no no.

I will give pluses for the quantity of toast and for the fact that you appear to be so proud of it that you stood on the table to take the photo.

All in all 3/10.

4/10

What's the idea behind spreading butter on cold toast? Surely it's better to spread when hot so oozes into the toast.
Sloppy beans
Streaky bacon
Meh sausages
Ice. Lol

You cooked a breakfast instead of buying it in.  For that, I'll give you 10 points.  Now for the deductions...

Wrinkly, shrivelled sausages - WTF and oh hell no    -1

Burnt toast poorly camouflaged with a bit of butter   - 1

Beans should NEVER touch eggs!  EVER!!!  Cross contamination of runny things ffs  -1

Strips of fat with a bit of meat running through them?  No thank you  - 1

Place setting fail.  Fork goes on the left and knife on the right.  Even my children know that  -1

That isn't even store bought orange juice, never mind freshly squeezed.   It's orange crush rubbish at best  -1

Where's the cup of tea?!  Sigh  - 1

Two types of cooked egg is a good thing imo  +1

Overall 4/10 and you did well to get that many points.  I seriously considered giving you a double penalty for the beans farce.

Not a bad attempt, not great, but far from the worst on here.

As my boss says, we'll start with 10 and take it from there.

WTF is with orange juice with a fry-up? GTFO. Tea please. -1

A nice stack of nicely browned toast (ignore Laxie, she calls warm bread 'toast') +1

Then you go and spoil it by putting a hideous-looking, diagonal cut piece of toast on the plate. I tried and tried to identify it as fried bread but no, it's shit toast. Sigh. -1

Sausages are poor examples of the art and pink-looking -2

I don't mind the bacon, I don't like it overdone either. However I'd like to have seen more of it. -½

Scrambled egg? O RLY? -1

You're fried egg looks pretty good though, nicely basted but perhaps had the oil slightly too hot when the egg hit the pan. +1

I'd like to have seen mushrooms, tinned tomatoes, hash browns & fried bread but as you said two of those were missed off on purpose, I can't be too severe. -1

Being an all-round good egg and from Leicester +1

Overall a solid enough 6½/10

OMG! Did you use any oil? And half a slice? What's that all about? That's another point off I'm afraid. 5½/10

If that was prepared and eaten on Saturday then it looks like the Breakfast of Champions to me.
