    Default Appalled tourist shares 'disgusting' breakfast he was served in Cyprus

    Is this the WORST full English ever? Appalled tourist shares 'disgusting' breakfast he was served in Cyprus – featuring a frankfurter, a single egg, and some VERY undercooked bacon
    A British holidaymaker in Cyprus was disappointed by his 'full English'
    It featured a frankfurter, a watery egg, lettuce and undercooked bacon
    The breakfast was slammed by Reddit users, with one calling it an 'abomination'

    The full English breakfast is an iconic British dish, as as such is available in cafes around the world.

    But one British holidaymaker was left horrified by the fry up he was served in Cyprus, which bore little resemblance to the ones he enjoys back home.

    The Reddit users was so appalled he shared a picture of the restaurant's efforts online; a chopping board loaded up with one frankfurter sausage, undercooked bacon, a single, watery egg, and - perhaps most surprisingly - a salad garnish.

    It prompted a flurry of responses from equally underwhelmed Reddit users, including one who described the attempt at an English breakfast as 'an abomination'.


    A Reddit user shared a snap of a full English breakfast that he ate while on holiday in Cyprus

    In addition to the very non-traditional frankfurter sausage, the breakfast, which was served at an unnamed restaurant in Cyprus, arrived with a side of unbuttered bread.

    It included a portion of baked beans in a dish, and came on a chopping board in lieu of a plate.

    User Spicerldn said: 'This is what's classed as a Full English Breakfast in Cyprus.'
    The picture sent Reddit into meltdown, leaving many confused at how the breakfast could be considered a full English.

    One commented: 'It's like if someone learnt about it from a game of Chinese whispers.'
    'What in the hell is this abomination??' another posted.

    A third said: 'Its like someone explained to them what one was, but they'd never seen or eaten one before --all the components are technically there. However, I contend that the addition of Lettuce renders this a salad.'

    The absolute f***ing state on that,' a fourth ranted.
    However, some Reddit users said the person who shared the picture shouldn't be ordering a full English while abroad.
    One posted: 'Who the f*** goes to Cyprus and orders a full English? You should have got a proper Cypriot breakfast.'
    'I'd be ashamed that i'd ordered a FEB anywhere outside the UK,' another said.

    Is this what passes for news nowadays?

    I would have shat a log on his plate instead of sausage, imagine going Cyprus to eat horrendous British food.

    This.

    Tasting the local cuisine is part of the experience of travelling to foreign countries.

    Frankfurter and beans in the morning does not sound appealing. This type of sausage yes. The bacon is way under cooked.

    Ιt used to be that Reddit and Twitter would find a piece of news and share it. Now the news agencies look for reddit posts and share them.

    A guy in my village opened a Fish and Chips shop 1 year ago and he is already expanding to a second location.

    I can't decide if I want to categorise him as a cuck or a businessman. Probably both.
