I have been to Ireland and they call their breakfast (the fry up) an Irish Breakfast and it is usually just the same as we English call the English Breakfast, I have been to Scotland and had a Scotish break fast (not porridge with salt), which dam country invented this breakfast and why do the others try to pass it off as their own?? by the way the hash browns that are served all over England and Wales by JD whetherspoons are actually an american thing.

I don't know but the other week i went to a cafe and ordered a full english,granted i got a cup of coffee with it but this thing cost me £4.95 and all i got was one bloody sausage,if i make this at home i give myself 4 or 5.I wouldn't expect that but surely 2 or 3 would have been alright for the price but no 1 bloody sausage.

Well actually, they have been frying up left over spuds for ever in the old country. As for who and when ..... they are all related anyway, so what difference does it make?
The Irish breakfast is different tho, in that it includes black pudding, but then again, so does the Scottish breaky..... Ah, what about potato pancakes? Or soda farls? Oh, now I'm getting hungry - think I'll make Soda Bread for supper.

In Ireland the breakfast has black pudding a soda bread added if it is an ulster fry - in England it does not - every country has a different combination and some regions differ.

There is usually small variations. I think Scottish breakfast also has sliced haggis and white pudding.
And yes, hash browns do not belong on a Full English

Invented it? What does it matter? If you are in England I guess your breakfast is English and if in Ireland Irish. It just means a full breakfast as opposed to continental breakfast.

Don't really know but I did once overhear an old lady asking if they were still serving the all-day breakfast....

the English were the first for the breakfast that's why you get all-day breakfast in England, or as they say the Great British breakfast.

I do not know either. Perhaps we should meet up in the home for the seriously bewildered. Just give me the address!
