"I actually thought they were two different things as such, French toast sweet with sugar etc, and eggy bread savory with salt and pepper and sauce?
Maybe Im wrong.... "
That's an interesting new theory for me!
Eggy bread still makes people sound like they're 4 though  |

"Right own up!
Which of you wrong 'uns call French toast "eggy bread"?"
You'll all av to when we leave europe, else Mrs May will put an import tax on it.
That's assuming Boris doesn't outlaw it as "not the sort of thing served in POW camps"
Or will we have to call it Freedom Toast? |

Braveheart toast is a different recipe. That's coated in a batter made with Buckfast Tonic then deep-fried.
Them scots are hardcore. |

Never trust a nation that doesn't use the word custard.....  "
Creme anglaise sound a lot fancier especially when emptying it onto a tart. |

French Toast I only ever here that from Americans.
It is Bread and eggs is it made it France no French toast should only be called it in France in my opinion.
Just like other stuff from country's Germany Black Forrest Gateau or however it is spelt should be called that ever where else it should be chelate cake with fruit.
Alaska pie should only be called that in Alaska.
Chocolate cake should maybe be something else as it a cake made of chocolate.
If eggy bread should be changed.
Where does one end it?. |

"Why have eggy bread when you can have window pane eggs.
Cut a hole in a slice of bread and fry it with an egg in said hole.
Cardiac Arrest on a plate but so bloody nice"
Love fried bread! I'm sure God himself eats it! |

Sting did his that way too:
Englishman in New York - "I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear,
I like my toast done on one side"
(Although ive never heard of it, so maybe he said that just to confuse them Americans) |

" Also known as Gypsy Bread in some areas of the UK "
Put the bread in the pan then all its friends turn up with caravans and dogs! Left the place a total mess and refused to leave!
All the while talking with some ridiculous accent! Would you believe it?!

I grew up calling it gypsy toast but I suppose that is not pc now. I call it egg fried bread now. I don't call it French toast like I don't say French fries. |
