I mean after all, when I think about bacon and eggs, all I can think of is clogged arterties, quadruple by-pass surgery, digestive disorders, and other other wreaks of havoc on the human body. Can anyone explain to me why they would rather eat bacon and eggs other that they like the taste?

you struck a chord in my heart right there free - I've moved to the us and i have a heck of a time finding black pudding anywhere - people turn up their nose in disgust when i ask about it at all the butchers i go to! Black pudding, black pudding, my kingdom for black pudding!!
i havent had a FEB for years now, at least..not a true FEB. i've have had a cut down version (minus black pudding, fried bread) with no brown sauce!! thats something else i miss!! a nice drop of daddies brown!
But i think it may have all stemmed from farmers - they would like a hot meal, the meat and eggs were plentiful and it didnt take long to cook - important for when they had to go and work the lands. thats just my 2p's worth though
