Full Monty
All Day Breakfast
Mixed Grill
Boring old Baked Beans
I have recently priced out of buying the rather delicious tins of Crosse & Blackwell Hunger Breaks - £1.75 per tin at Tescos
However I have found that Home Bargains sell them for 89p per tin
The three types I'm aware of are 'Full Monty', 'All Day breakfast' and 'Mixed Grill'
I favour the Full Monty - Which is your favourite?

Don't smoke and never have
I take all my drugs in Tablet form
have to say I've never heard of these things, just going by the names, I would pick the Full Monty but isn't that the same as an All day Breakfast!
Cut out the middleman and just empty the tin into the toilet.
:)
All day breakfast is my favourite, followed closely by the mixed grill.
At 89 pence a can, you can't go wrong :-)

Edited to say that on reflection these may taste wonderful. I just don't know.

Just asked my missus about these, there's even more types apparently. The Big BBQ, The Spicy One, The Full Works and The Bacon Sizzler. Oh and a Texan Chilly range.
I dont think I have eaten anything from a can by choice!

What?!?Originally Posted by 100thmonkey
Not even Heinz baked beans (not as good as they used to be) or Heinz Tomato soup???
I don't believe it.
Chilli, Bolognese usually use canned ingredients for convenience.
I have examined our cupboards and kidney beans and tuna are the only two I use! More accurately I refer to having a 'meal' from a tin! Are you still living in an air raid shelter?

No not me - I shudder at the thought of a meal in a tin.
I just found your claim of never from a can a bit hard to accept... but had I given it more thought, I'd have known you meant the complete meal concept.
I'd bet a fiver you've never "enjoyed" a Fray Bentos pie either?
Um,,, your not a student are you
Not for a long time...Um,,, your not a student are you
But it's amazing what you'll eat when the only cooking facility is a camping primus stove.
I didn't realise people actually ate this shite?, I am all for a tin of beans, but a breakfast in a can, surely it's just processed muck??
You mean you never had...
...as a nipper growing up - Saturday lunchtime "treat" this was.
You know, I don't recall ever having had that combo?!!
I might bloody well have to get a tin when back in the uk and give it a go!!!!
only tried the beanz ...........so beanz it is
Is that possible unless you are homeless?

Ahhh all becomes clear: search you must, for beans only, then hunt for wild garlic leaves, and field mushrooms, and eggs of chicken or duck. Then you will have a good breakfast. Ate this delicacy when on a bicycle trip around Cornwall, generally when still full of beer from previous night.Not for a long time...

Snob!
If you've never tried one you might be missing a culinary delight (...you're not), but you could have been.
I'm off to Rome next week & its occurred to me I've never tried Campari... I don't anticipate liking it, but one should try things at least once.
Luton Airport anyone.
You don't have one of these on a Sunday? It's home style goodness...it says so right there on the tin.
Can I suggest All day breakfast in a can, and then chicken in a can for lunch;
Just checked out the larder,Yes we have the full monty.
Uuuugh that thing in a can coming out reminded me of....
wow I need to be more observation
Got too at least try each variety
Thanks for the info - well thank your missus for me
As a camper I've eat all sorts of cuisine from a tin but that looks disgusting, just look at the gelatine around it....it makes my guts turn just looking at it.You don't have one of these on a Sunday? It's home style goodness...it says so right there on the tin.

you need to add an option to the poll: are you kidding me, I would rather spend some personal time with Cilla and his hats.

Now to be fair, that selection is fairly divided between
- Why? eg bacon or 'pizza flavoured' meat, or cheeseburger
and hmmm, I wonder what that tastes like
- Creamed Possum or Armadillo or even Rattlesnake, Platypus or Roasted Scorpions.
I love technology which can provide a whole chicken in a can should you ever need one - and also the opportunity to try something you'd never, in your life, thought about eating - such as Mole Crickets... what are they, are they delicious/nutritious and do they taste different tinned as opposed to fresh?
Canned chicken, only if I had to to survive... but canned mole crickets, a delicacy unseen on these shores?
Caught these two fine examples this afternoon
Ive not sampled Bacon Sizzler before

Surprised with you been Army bloke
When I went on Survival in the late 70's, the tinned compo rations were superb
The tins of fruit cake, beans and sausages, oxtail soup were my fav, I never got used to 'mock Turtle soup' lol
They probably tasted nicer after three days of eating only what you could find or kill
I've retained my love of tinned food from then I suppose. If you can eat cold beans straight from the tin without gagging your hooked for life
What the feck is that? I think the kid in the background is thinking the same:) is it stored in septic jelly? that is revolting, I nearly spat out my ginsters when I saw itYou don't have one of these on a Sunday? It's home style goodness...it says so right there on the tin.

The trick is with these to take two of the sausages out and throw them away then add another small tin of ordinary beans with loads of Lampong pepper - a very distinctive flavour - oh and never buy the large tins - they do taste like cr**.

Of course it is, but since when does that stop anyone eating anything that tastes nice and takes 30s to 'make'?
