Millennials are killing off the Full English Breakfast!

If you’re one of those Brits who has to start your day off with a Full English Breakfast to then you might actually be in the minority, because a recent survey has just revealed that the Fry up is on its way out, and it’s all down to millennials. 

 

The study was commissioned by polling firm Ginger Research, who surveyed 2000 18-30 year olds and they discovered that 42% of them said that a Full English reminded them of men in vests hanging out in a greasy spoon. The survey also discovered that 20% wouldn’t go near an English Brekkie and 24% said that it was just too greasy for them.

 

When asked about their fave breakfast staple, millennials said they’ve rather enjoy smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, smashed avocado on toast or oatmeal pancakes for breakfast. I mean that’s literally my daily breakfast so I guess that makes me a slightly older millennial. 

 

Here’s what Ellie Glason – director of Ginger Research – had to say about the results: 
 

The study found also that over half of young adults believe Britain is becoming more health conscious and shunning traditional English meals like fried breakfasts, bangers and mash and pie and chips.

 
Surely this is a good thing?! All that fried muck isn't great for you y'know. Plus I’m sure all those staunch brexiteers will still happily chow down on their pie & mash and a big ol fry up with an extra sausage. I’ll just be sitting here with my wanky avocado toast with toasted seeds.

Horses for courses.

Sometimes Pork is the only answer.

This genre of news story is fucking wild. You'd think peoples' tastes had remained unchanged throughout history, all until these bastard snowflake millennials came along.

Is it a new thing? Or if you go back 30-odd years was it all 'champagne sipping yuppies are killing pints of mild'?
