Yes, yes we do.

Toast with butter and lots of Vegemite is the second best way to start
the day.

Most of the time. And real butter please, not margarine (blech).

Try Chelsea golden syrup from New Zealand, if you can get it. Much
stronger and IMO nicer.

<snipped>

A number of things...

Butter

Butter with jam and/or peanut butter

Butter and poached egg being my number one favorite.

Melted cheese

Bacon, lettuce and tomato with mayo

Butter with hot turkey breast, gravy and dressing (post Thanksgiving
treat!)

Grilled ground beef with avocado and bacon and mayo.

Etc.

Is there anything that does NOT go well with toasted bread?

I have toast three possible ways.

With peanut butter (that may be breakfast)
With butter when eating it with my morning egg
With butter and Trappist strawberry preserves on one slice if I have two
with a weekend breakfast

I always believed butter is better than artificial stuff.

Mack,

I eyed vegemite once but didn't try it. There I was having breakfast at the
Hotel Rex in Canberra ("Why wait to die?"), NSW, Australia but I just
couldn't! A tiny measure of guilt has stayed with me to this very day.

cottage cheese
pesto
garlic hummus dip
avocado
unsalted butter
cream cheese
creamed chipped beef

Best,

Andy

Vegemite definitely, Promite a distant second, Marmite
not in the running at all. Butter first. Peanut butter
is fine, also with butter first, then a dab of honey on
top. But Vegemite Rules.

I like a little variety; strawberry jam, black currant jam, Seville
orange marmalade, honey or cinnamon sugar.

Depends on the purpose of the toast.

If I'm having it as a snack, then usually salted butter and salt.

If I'm having it with breakfast (which I usually eat for supper), then
butter. Once in a great while I add strawberry or raspberry
preserves. On top of the butter. The toast must be buttered as
soon as it emerges from the toaster, so that the butter will melt.
The amount of preserves must not be so great as to interfere with
my enjoyment of the butter.

I believe in butter. I'm 52 years old, my cholesterol is 139 (can't
remember the HDL/LDL ratio, but it's favorable), and my blood
pressure is usually in the neighborhood of 110/70 to 120/80 (depending
on whether someone cut me off in traffic on the way to the doctor's
office). Besides, margarine just tastes weird.

hot dog relish is nice on toast with cream cheese.... but then I also like
cream cheese on toast topped with thin slices of sweet onion (toasted

And I like my toast toasted "dark".

Oh, and I love toast topped with egg salad, and chopped liver, and chopped

Ah, a soul mate... I love toast with salted butter and salt.... thinly
sliced, dark toasted, NY sourdough seeded Jewish rye, lightly buttered,
sprinkled liberally with pinches of kosher salt.... much better than
pretzels. Onion rye the same way is good too.

Mm. Ya just flung me a craving for liverwurst dammit!
On, you guessed it, toast with mayo!

I'll have to settle for shmearing it on some chicharones tho'. <sigh>
Or wrapping it in a lettuce leaf with some of those sunflower sprouts I

Lettuce. The low carbers "toast". One of these days I must try grilled

Favorite toast topping?

Ketchup

I've been eating toast with ketchup since I was a kid.

I know you're all gagging now, as do most of my friends when I tell
them.

I also eat toast with strawberry jam or gorton or peanut butter, but
ketchup is still my favorite.

Ketchup? My brother used to eat ketchup sandwiches.

A nostalgic choice for me would be butter and a smidge of sugar along
side a cuppa tea.

I think it's been classified as a liquid bomb. At the very least, a WMD.

Besides, we don't do "brekkies" or smoke ciggies while watching the telly.

Love toast for breakfast, or English Muffins, some favorite toppings
are- in no partticular order...

Peanut butter ( crunchy)
bacon slices with the peanut butter- this is very good, NUTELLA

all very nice
also real butter of course...

Rosie

Butter IS better (health-wise) than oleo - whether or not you believe
it doesn't matter. Moderation is the key.

I butter my toast, and my favorite topping on top of that is Amana
Colonies' Cherry Preserves (a type of jam).

I didn't know and haven't seen any research on it. I took it for
granted that butter contains animal fat, which is worse than fats made
from vegetable products (soy, canola).

What about the "heart-healthy" spreads.

Not certain that I still buy it. Convince me.

Hydrogenated fats are worse for you than natural animal fats, plus oleo
is loaded with chemicals. Read the label. It's not even "food".

A quick reasearch....

Butter or Margarine: the Verdict?

BOTH saturated fats and trans fats can raise total cholesterol and LDL
cholesterol. Therefore, you should try to minimize the intake of BOTH
saturated fats and trans fats.

When we add up the numbers, it's clear that butter contains more
saturated fats and trans fat. And remember that butter also contains
dietary cholesterol.

Choose non-hydrogenated soft margarine.

Choose soft margarine: The American Heart Association recommends the
use of margarine as a substitute for butter. We are excited that many
brands of soft margarine do not contain trans fat anymore. Check the
Nutrition Facts label and choose one with zero trans fat and no more
than 2 g of saturated fats per tbsp and with liquid vegetable oil as
the first ingredient.

Here are some brands of soft margarine and cholesterol-lowering spread
that meet the criteria:

Becel
Benecol
Blue Bonnet Soft Spread
Canola Harvest Non-Hydrogenated
I Can't Believe it's not Butter
Promise
Smart Balance Light

http://www.healthcastle.com/butter-or-margarine.shtml

I'm sure you can find websites that will disagree, but my point is
that it's not definite - the jury is still out as to what is better.

I think it depends on an individual's physiology, too. I have known
elderly folks who ate bacon and eggs every morning.

What is (are) your favorite toast topping(s)?


Do we have Marmite/Vegemite lovers in the group?


Do you spread butter or oleo on your toast before the topping?

(My sister's friend works for Prevention Magazine, and the latest
health scoop is that butter is healthier than oleo spread. I don't
think I agree.)


Anybody enjoy toasted cheese with a slices of apple? Great for
brekkie or lunch.


Apple butter/cottage cheese? Drizzled olive oil?


When I can get it, I enjoys Lyle's Golden Syrup (British) spread on
toast and butter. (Tate & Lyle) Very, very sweet. "Out of the Strong

I like peanut butter and jelly on toast, too, but it's so damn
fattening.


Also, Black Current preserves.

I don't mess about with "heart-healthy" stuff on purpose, anyway.
It's mostly all a crock, anyway. Like Julia always said, "now and

food.
