My British friend actually eats beans on toast unironically and I’m curious if anyone’s tried this as well, he says he enjoys it but dislikes the decision making when it comes to actually eating it with bare hands or with a fork and knife
People don’t chat shit about quesadillas, pupusas or burritos, but when the British do beans + starch + tomato + cheese, everyone loses their FUCKING MINDS
I mean, it’s a hell of a lot better for you (especially the brands without added sugar) than something like a grilled cheese, to use a comparison of similarly low effort. It’s a quick and easy meal, not a whole culinary tradition. No one is whipping up a sushi platter in Japan when they get home exhausted from work.
I’m not British and I like beans on toast. Sure it ain’t haut cuisine. But it’s decent low effort breakfast food. And you don’t have to eat it bland. You can add black pepper, tabasco or chili sauce, herbs or whatever. English breakfast is pretty good if you spice it up.

This is true. I’d eat beans on toast any day over fårikål.

Would you eat hummus toast? Hummus is made from beans, so it’s not that different.
