Here are all the possible components of Complete English, ranked by popularity.
If someone asked you what is the one part of a full English breakfast you can’t live without, what would you say?
If your answer is bacon, the British public will agree with you. A 2017 YouGov survey revealed it was the most important ingredient in our morning fry-up, with 89% of people saying they wanted it on their plate.
So what are the other 11% playing?
Sausage is the second most popular ingredient at 82%, followed by plain toast at 73%. Toast is like the James Milner of the Full English – it's not flashy or exciting, but without it your breakfast is nowhere near as solid.
People always debate whether beans deserve a place on the plate, but this poll shows they're actually more important than any type of egg – 71% want a side of baked beans, while 65% Want fried eggs. Scrambled eggs are a must for 34% of people and 24% prefer poached eggs.
A slightly more rogue option is that 6% of Brits want it with a full English pancake. Damn hipsters.
