Swap the hash browns out for an egg and then you're talking.
Beans on toast is fine, but I prefer my diet to have more variety: toast under beans, upside down toast on beans, Napoleon's Lament...
Mix a bit of reggae reggae sauce into the beans, cheese on top, happy days.
I get irrationally annoyed when all the brands try and get in on the joke on Twitter

Dry Weetabix with butter and jam on is pretty common.
in the olden days, we used to be able to buy them coated in chocolate from the local sweet shop.
I 'cold filter' my milk through my weetabix - enough to soften them but not make them soggy. I stack three in a pyramid and the top one is always the best - gets super cold from the fresh milk.
Also for beans I tend to just let the beans fall off the toast so I'm really eating bean sauce on toast, with a side of beans after
I love beans on toast and came into this thread full of excitement. I leave it with my day ruined.
I fear for us now we are cut off from the continent. In 10 years time we'll just be slathering baked beans on chunks of rusted articulated lorries, for a similar amount of nutritional value.
Beans on toast is old hat by now. When can we start holding Brits accountable for the Chip Butty?
Ain't nuffing French about that mate, it's got chips in it, wash your mouf out.Beans on toast is old hat by now. When can we start holding Brits accountable for the Chip Butty?
Also that's a particularly posh looking chip butty.

Chip Butty is a legit GOAT food.

....this is like something a child would make when left to their own devices for a night.
UK Era, get help.
It owns though. Bread and butter and nice thick chips. Not french fries though, ugh, they wouldn't work at all.
Weetabix is the fucking worst. I'd rather die than replace beans on toast with beans on bix. DIE.
YES.
Thick slice white bread, shit load of butter, marmite on that, can of beans over the top, massive pile of grated cheese to crown it - and then, ketchup, squirt squirt all over the top.
Food of champions, I can take on the world after that.
I'll see you Worcester Sauce and raise you HENDERSON'S RELLISHBoke. I love baked beans and Weetabix but that sounds vile. Here is the true Beans on Toast upgrade:
Stop, you're making me hungry!
last week i took to adding fish fingers to my usual beans on toast also, that was a treat
Common??Dry Weetabix with butter and jam on is pretty common.
With who???
Dry Weetabix with butter and jam on is pretty common.
only last week i had weetabix with a thin veil of lurpak on top, then coated with a thick helping of golden shredded marmalade
they're too busy chomping on their deep fried butter on a stick.
Just had a gussied up beans on toast for dinner last night in fact. Delicious. Will probably go into rotation and have it more often.
Baked beans are common in US cuisine, just not on toast.
Honestly I just don't get the "on toast" thing. Why toast? Why not just eat them with a spoon? Are beans just more viscous in the UK, making them a more viable spread?
Not sure if you're aware and just messing around, but butter on a stick is fair food, which is intentionally ridiculous.
American cuisine is fantastic and I will defend it to the death
It goes back a century or so. It's cheap, quick and easy to prepare and filling, I'd guess. Combine that with rationing during and after WWII, and it's easy enough to see how it became a widespread idea of a meal here.
Got it. The historical context was lost on me.
Still gonna clown on it tho lol
It's a variety of texture and flavour? The toast is crunchy and the beans are smooth?
I dunno. Whilst I wouldn't call it a meal in and of itself anymore, though previous posts are right, it definitely served that purpose during rationing, it's just a nice snack. grate some cheese over the top. Put some lea and perrins on there. It's good.
Don't worry, I'll dunk on scones in gravy or whatever the hell it is the US has too :D

Also on the point of viscosity,
I tend to think that a tin of heinz beans is too runny. They come with too much sauce, and in order to get rid of it properly takes too long to cook. You tend to either cook too hot and fast, and end up with loads of beans stuck to the pan, or cook cooler but for too short of a time and end up with too much liquid still left over.
For these reasons, I prefer the superior brand, Branston, to heinz, as they have a better bean to sauce ratio.

Lovely, up their with the crisp butty in the fine dining stakes.
I have also switched to Branston, I like the slightly different taste in the sauce
