The English have the Fry Up (2 fried eggs, sausage, bacon, beans, potatoes). The Americans have bacon and eggs. The Filipinos have variations of meat, egg and rice. For example, there is Tapsilog a popular breakfast choice which consists of Beef Tapa (marinated beef with sugar, vinegar, garlic, and soy sauce), fried leftover rice with garlic (sinangag), and egg (itlog)
