Clarea Posted September 15, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I've seen the baked beans, English bacon, and the black hockey puck things. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaBear55 Posted September 15, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 15, 2019 As well as grilled tomatoes, mushrooms, what they call "English" scrambled eggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby114 Posted September 15, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Add British sausage AKA Bangers to the list. I have seen them on many cruises, especially on the Independence Of The Seas sailings from Southampton, Great Britain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so, or Blood sausage. There is a white pudding made without blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellarion Posted September 15, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Thank you for your quick responses! Having the British offerings may just be the tipping point for my British-born husband to say "yes" to this cruise! Thanks again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! On the Grandeur I have seen pretty much everything but NOT kippers or true fried bread.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted September 16, 2019 #11 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Kippers might be difficult. But for fried bread, I would ask in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bboop51 Posted September 16, 2019 #13 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Interesting topic. This will be our first Royal cruise. English born hubby always cobbles together a full English Breakfast (not sure about the fried bread) when we sail on Celebrity. I'm sure he is hoping for the same on the Adventure, when we sail, next May. He eats relatively healthy the rest of the year, so this is his big treat.

Monk86 Posted September 16, 2019 #14 Share Posted September 16, 2019 They (RCI) generally have English bacon etc but I assume it might depend on departure port etc...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted September 17, 2019 #15 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Grandeur out of Baltimore has had a mix of bacon on 4 cruises so far. Some morning English bacon, some mornings American bacon. This is in the WJ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always think US based cooking programmes are going over the top to be sensational when I hear them refer to it as Blood pudding or sausage instead of just Black pudding!

Yes,again as we are all different it brings dread to many,for many others who have been brought up with it,it is just a normal food item,that is why when I watch.for example,Bizarre Foods on TV,because of the nature of the programme & some of the strange(that's my opinion as we are all different!) things that he eats I always smile when he seems to stress the word BLOOD when he describes it!

In Ireland they use the Blood or Black interchangeably. The history of said item is just bizarre. This myth goes, that back in the day, when warriors were traveling, they would have oats, but no protein. So they would nick their horse to draw a bit of blood and add that to their oats. This would give it a black appearance, and littler made with blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
