What was the consensus on chips on a FEB? They aren't for me for breakfast, but could accept a few for lunch, although they are unnecessary filler imo.
That's a lot of black pudding tho, i can only manage one bit, eaten a little bit at a time together with the other items...
Halloumi (maybe feta though) and olves i wouldn't want on my breakfast but i go to an English place for FEB. not a fan of black pudding..That's a lot of black pudding tho, i can only manage one bit, eaten a little bit at a time together with the other items...

No chips unless you’re northern and in Magaluf on a stag That's a lot of black pudding tho, i can only manage one bit, eaten a little bit at a time together with the other items...

Perfect hangover cure. Good to see a non poncy breakfast on here too.
Care to rethink that now knowing he’s having olives for breakfast

We don't do chips on FEB up here in the northern territories. Hash browns or potato cakes up here. It's a southern softy thing to have chips on them.Prefer chips over hash browns TBH, but also have been known to have bubble and squeak.

What do you class as northern territories out of interest ?

Yorkshire upwards but even when I used to drive for a living which resulted in having a FEB every day somewhere in the country, I've never seen chips on the menu as part of a FEB anywhere north of London.Prefer chips over hash browns TBH, but also have been known to have bubble and squeak.

I may be wrong I’m in the midlands so can slag off both north and south 
I thought that the committee had ruled that chips were acceptable as part of FEB when served after midday and particularly as part of a high tea.
Which poses another question inspired by the tangential northern territories discussion, is the term high tea just a Northern / Scottish thing? Say anywhere above an E- W line passing through East Midlands around Nottingham.

As others have said - pretty sure the FEB powers that be in an extraordinary meeting did grant chips equal status with Hash Browns.
Anyhoo - it still hit the spot/tasted bloody lovely !!

The only time I request chips on my FUP is when i'm abroad. I don't know why either. I've vague memories of the Redbeck Cafe just outside Wakefield having chips on the Brekkie menu (think it was their All day Inclusive Breakfast) So may/may not break the North South divide.

I can indeed confirm that the McCain Accord of 2019 included the clause that various versions of potato based chips were allowed after midday. This can be brought forward by 30 minutes for roadside establishments.
Severe penalties can be imposed upon those miscreants violating this rule.
Ps no High Tea up here in the NE. Think you have to go a little bit further north for that... to the Other Place I believe.
