Kiwi Breakfast

You’ll often find a “Kiwi Breakfast” on the menu of a New Zealand cafe. Besides the produce being local, there is nothing inherently “Kiwi” about it. Its literally an English Breakfast… except it in New Zealand, so therefore it’s “Kiwi”.

Kiwi waiter: “would you like to try our Kiwi Breakfast “
English tourist: “yeah sure”

20 minutes later…

English tourist: “this is literally an English breakfast without black pudding”
