The Case for Definition, Standards, and Economic Revitalisation
This white paper examines the current state of the English breakfast tradition across commercial, and domestic settings. It identifies the pressures affecting the meal’s integrity, outlines the case for formal definition and standards, and considers the economic implications for British food producers and hospitality operators. It is intended for members of the public and practitioners seeking to understand the rationale, structure, and boundaries of the Society’s standards framework.
This document is explanatory. It sets out the rationale and context for the Society's work but does not itself constitute a standard. Normative standards are published separately in the Standards section.
