I've been cooking seriously for decades and I'm just NOW learning that in the UK, French Toast is called EGGY BREAD.

Eggy bread isn’t French though. Neither are French Fries etc etc

This is the wrong way to look at historical food influence. Yes, "cooking bread in eggs" goes back to ancient rome, but those names come from pain perdu and pomme frites, popularized in america's franophile historical eras. They ARE french in terms of influence.

But its origins are not only not French - but it's also not toasted!
