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:
“Man is to himself the most wonderful object in nature; for he cannot conceive what the body is, still less what the mind is, and least of all how a body should be united to a mind. This is the consummation of his difficulties, and yet this is his very being.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“Was I not born in this Realm? Were my parents born in any foreign country?... Is not my Kingdom here? Whom have I oppressed? Whom have I enriched to other’s harm? What turmoil have I made to this Commonwealth that I should be suspected to have no regard of the same?”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
