英式早餐：吃得不仅是美味

　　要说去英国最应该吃什么才能体会到英国的传统和文化?答案一定是英式早餐。据说英国人是以英式早餐为骄傲的，他们认为英式早餐是世界上最棒的早餐之一。英式早餐已经超脱了“早餐”的原意，而是在更广的层面上代表了英国独特生活方式的一部分，其美味吸引了八方来客慕名前来品尝。

　　英式早餐比其他国家的正餐还要丰富，绝非只有牛角包配果酱咖啡的欧式早餐可比。这份早餐俗称the fry-up，因为里面多是煎炸的食物：香肠，腌肉，蘑菇，番茄。除此之外，还有土司，英式烤饼，茄汁焗豆等食物。

　　The most famous meal in Britain could be the traditional breakfast. What makes it so popular with British people and visitors alike?

　　Accounts of its origins vary. Drinking a blend of black teas for breakfast is indeed a longstanding British custom. The practice of referring to such a blend as "English breakfast tea" appears to have originated not in England but America, as far back as Colonial times.

　　English Breakfast tea is a black tea blend usually described as full-bodied, robust, and/or rich, and blended to go well with milk and sugar, in a style traditionally associated with a hearty English breakfast. It is the most common style of tea in Britain.
