Sounds like he is at least willing to try new things -
- especially something traditional from another county

I have a good friend that grew in England (Manchester) and he
told me some '
of the ingredients for the "traditional" English breakfast. He
did say
though that not many people there did that but it was a
traditional
breakfast at diners and Pubs.

The odd thing to me was the addition of baked beans but it really
did
go with the meal.
I made some of it and it was good
I had:
- fried bacon
- two eggs over easy cooked in the bacon grease
- a slice of white bread also toasted in the pan with bacon
grease.
- little bit of hash browns
- a couple of thick slices of tomato fried in pan
- and, of course, the baked beans.

I only made that once but it was pretty tasty.
