# Nooooooooooo!
Crumpets are all spongey and have big holes.
Muffins are all floury like bread a bit.

The pics don't show the difference well. You must taste to truly believe.

# the english muffin is far superior to its
new world and crumpet cousins

(although Blueberry american Muffins may be better)

# As I said
homemade muffins are good. The ones they sell in stores are crap
