During a recent trip to Bath, England, Amber Kacherian and her two friends, Blake and Jared, decided to dive into the classic British culinary tradition of the full English breakfast. Encouraged by locals, the trio documented their first taste test, revealing a mix of reactions and honest opinions.
Amber introduced the experience to her 424,000 Instagram followers as they settled into a cozy café. Blake bravely took the first bite, sampling the notorious black pudding. His reaction was immediate and clear — grimacing and exclaiming “What the h*ll?” before rejecting the rest. “We will not be having any of that,” he concluded.
Amber started her meal differently, opting for a syrup-drenched pancake. She praised the syrup’s sweeter taste compared to typical American versions. She also showcased an array of toppings — honey, peanut butter, jam, and Marmite — though fans pointed out many of these would traditionally accompany toast rather than pancakes.

Blake then turned his attention to the Marmite on toast, spreading it generously before tasting. His reaction was another grimace, paired with the description “tastes like sadness.” Jared, who also tried the Marmite, described its scent as “burnt yeast” and echoed Blake’s strong reaction.
However, not all was challenging. Amber enjoyed the classic beans on toast, finding the combination both tasty and comforting. The group also commented on the bacon, initially mistaking it for ham, but soon warming to its distinct flavor. Amber was intrigued by the British-style yogurt, finding it more akin to sour cream but still enjoyable.
Their experience painted a vivid picture of the full English breakfast, revealing both beloved staples and acquired tastes. While some flavors were met with hesitation, the adventure offered a memorable culinary insight for these American visitors exploring the UK.
