Brit tries US girlfriend’s breakfast and he’s not impressed in hilarious viral video

A Brit tried his American girlfriend's breakfast - and he was not impressed.

A viral video on TikTok shows the disastrous results after she tried to make her boyfriend sample a sugar-filled American breakfast.

Alex Murphy, 34, who lives in London, filmed herself making her boyfriend Paul Klein a PopTart – a very sweet pastry that can be heated up in toaster.

In a clip shared with her 730,000 followers on TikTok ( @almurph18 ), Alex prepares a brown sugar cinnamon tart along with a glass of milk before handing it to Paul who is far from impressed by the breakfast.

She announces: “I’ve made you breakfast.”

He says: “Oh god. What are these things? Are these American? That doesn’t smell good to me.

“This isn’t a breakfast. Where’s the eggs, where’s the bacon, where’s the sausages, where’s the hash browns?

“Why do you guys have all these sweet things for breakfast?”

He takes a tentative nibble and shakes his head.

He says: “That’s not good. No. Take it back. That’s not a breakfast.”

Alex captioned the post: “Making my British boyfriend a delicious American breakfast.”

But followers didn’t exactly agree with the description.

“His face every time he took a bite,” one user commented, to which Alex replied, “So dramatic isn’t he.”

Another user said: “It’s just sugar on bread.”

“I love pop tarts but I don’t really get how you could consider it a full breakfast,” another person agreed.

Someone else said: “Must admit I’m not a fan of these, I agree breakfast needs bacon, sausage, egg, hash browns etc.”

“I could’ve told you he wouldn’t like it,” said one fan.

Another user added: “I totally agree with him.”

“Oh god what now,” said someone else, followed by laughing emojis.

Another critic commented: “Can you really call it breakfast when it's just sugar.”

“That’s not a breakfast for sure,” agreed another follower.

Someone else said: “You call this breakfast?!!?”

Alex previously made headlines after making Paul a cup of tea using cold water.
