Around the world
British Isles
A full English breakfast will often include bread[3] fried in oil, butter, lard, or bacon drippings. In Northern Ireland, an Ulster fry may include fried soda farls.
United States
In the United States, toast is much more popular at breakfast. However, it is still eaten, particularly in the form of French toast, but sometimes as simply a slice of bread fried in butter.
