European Hate-Speech About The American Breakfast

There are a number of serious errors in the image Denbeste has found.

Americans are all cookie cutter.  There is a place in Wichita that stamps out the molds.

Firstly, there is only a single egg, and the yolk and white are separate. This is racist, and more importantly, I do not care for the texture. Eggs on their own should be scrambled into more a sort of omlettely thing.

Secondly, three pieces of toast are too few. Especially if that is the whole of the bread portion, there should be more of it. Texas toast or French are preferred alternatives, but sometimes plain toast is fine.

Bacon doesn't pack down well, so that is less meat than one would think. Consider adding some sausage instead of just increasing portion size. Back when I could eat biscuits worth the effort, I loved biscuit sandwiches with a sausage patty.

Sourdough biscuits and corn johnny cakes are traditional. These days many find pancakes or waffles more convenient.

The image mentions a serious deficiency, hashbrowns. A good amount of grits is just as good, depending on what one feels like that day.

The drink is all wrong. That won't be enough to wash everything down. Try a small glass, about one and a half liters, and you shouldn't need to get up too many times for refills. I don't know what that gunk is, but it probably is best replaced by water, for a lower impact on flavor.

I no longer do cold cereals. Oatmeal is one of the traditional hots but, perhaps due to excessively valuing anime, I've come to value rice more. A really hard core anime fan might add the famous hate soup.

The gun is sited for a diner with two left hands.

The diner appears to not have their back to the wall.

The china has a strange alien design on it. It would be more authentic if whoever staged this had imported some bone china with the word 'operator' or 'tactical' as the design.

Lastly, the construction appears shoddy and fragile. Are building codes in Europe really so poor that a light tremor or a light breeze could send everything tumbling down?
