United Kingdom
Most British supermarkets sell variations on the standard bread muffin, notably cheese, wholemeal and even cinnamon and raisin. A distinct species of baked good, with pieces of chocolate, blueberries or other dried fruit, are also sold in the United Kingdom as "muffins". Muffins are also available in traditional British tea rooms, served with breakfast or low/afternoon tea although tea cakes are more commonly found in such places.

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“Why doesn’t the United States take over the monarchy and unite with England? England does have important assets. Naturally the longer you wait, the more they will dwindle. At least you could use it for a summer resort instead of Maine.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“Illness is the night-side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
