Oh please stop it! Just had breakfast and am getting hungry again. I like the toast to be cold so you can spread the butter thickly then it melts as you dip it in the soup. 🤤
DH liked to slather on the marmite so I would insist on doing my own toast but he did introduce me to beans on toast with marmite spread on the toast before adding the beans.
Good bread, lightly done. Butter, good-quality spread or (depending upon what else I'm putting on) peanut butter. Hardly ever a sweet topping, usually Marmite, sandwich spread or a fried egg. I hardly ever eat toast just as itself and never for breakfast - it's usually part of lunch or supper.
Medium toasted usually with thick cut marmalade or apricot jam. Granary or sourdough bread. Sometimes peanut butter sometimes two slices with peanut butter on one and marmalade/jam on the other. Never marmite I absolutely hate it, even the smell
Toasted to just golden, with topping of unsalted butter and marmalade, cheese and apricot jam, or peanut butter on mashed banana. Any good bread, but toast must be COLD.
Interesting that so many of you like it burned. Is it because it has more flavour? Certainly most bread has very little taste to it, unless it's homemade. I like a good strong marmalade on mine.
I don’t want to be a spoilsport, as I love well-done toast too, but I’m sure I read somewhere that burnt toast, especially when it’s very burnt, causes cancer. Mind you, what doesn’t, these days?
I like Rose's lime marmalade on toast, but it costs a blooming lot, now.
Yes I love this. Also golden shred. But my favourite jam which is never usually available is quince jam. I generally have to order it online from Tiptree.
My fondest toast memory is, at the age of five, using my grandparents' toasting fork near to the open fire. A thick slice of their bloomer. Then spread with beef dripping with a little salt and pepper. Happy memories. Nowadays, toasted sourdough with marmite and crunchy peanut butter.

Ooh yes! On a Monday, dripping from yesterday's roast on hot toast with a sprinkling of salt. If it was a roast.chicken, I fry the kidney lightly and put on top for an extra treat.
It's got to be white bread for me (yes, I know I'm a heathen) fairly dark toasted and allowed to cool in a toast rack. Then, lashings of very good quality salted butter, cut into fingers and dipped in a runny boiled egg with a little sea salt and white pepper. Alternatively spread with a good sharp tasting marmalade. And now I want some!
