Help me settle a debate /ck/:

When eating toast, do you put butter AND jam on it?

I always just do one or the other, and I've never heard of anyone eating both, but my friend says that you're supposed to do both and I think he's a fucking freak for doing so.

[Anonymous No.15244095]

Just butter

[Anonymous No.15244102]

>>15244084
Idk but I like jam and cream cheese or even creme fraiche.

I have had butter and jam and that's also very tasty.

[Anonymous No.15244106]

Doing both is delicious. It's definitely the best way.

[Anonymous No.15244107]

>>15244084
Why yes, I do both, how could you tell?

I've done it with both. It makes it all tasty and creamy. It's nice

[Anonymous No.15244339]

Butter and jam is the best. It has the salty sweet combo that can't be beat.

[Anonymous No.15244345]

Either just butter, or butter +jam. Sugar with no fat flavor to balance it out on toast sounds shitty to may,

[Anonymous No.15244382]

For me, its butter and honey

[Anonymous No.15244482]

>>15244084
Is this a European thing? Both is standard in the US, a diner will always give you both and I've never seen someone in real life or on TV eat just jam

[Anonymous No.15244483]

>>15244084
I've put both in the past, but I think I most typically use one or the other, either because it's quicker/easier or I just don't think about it.

Really don't have any strong opinion either way though

[Anonymous No.15244530]

>>15244084
butter and vegemite

[Anonymous No.15244627]

Butter and jam for sure. Cream cheese and jam is nice too - it's like eating a crunchy danish.

Do you even.

[Anonymous No.15244649]

Both is overkill but it's how my mom did it and it's delicious. Now I just go for one or the other though, and I think it works better when you have butter on one slice and jam on the other.

[Anonymous No.15244719]

>>15244084
Butter on the toast so it melts in and changes the texture of the toast
Jam on top for flavor

Butter, jelly and cinnamon. Literally no better combo on toast

Butter and jam is great, especially on English muffins.

[Anonymous No.15245614]

>>15244084
I do both. After I butter it I put it under the grill for a few seconds to melt the butter so you don't make a mess when you add on the jam like in your picture.

[Anonymous No.15245632]

Jam doesnt belong on bread. If you need butter to enhance your bread, you need to get better bread.

[Anonymous No.15245694]

Both. Salted butter though

[Anonymous No.15245698]

I hardly ever have jam on my toast but if I do I like having butter with it. The butter softens up the toast and the saltiness offsets the sweetness of the jam. Just jam is fine too though.

[Anonymous No.15245727]

>>15244084
Of course you put both. Americans are sick in the head.

[Anonymous No.15245770]

>>15244084
If you want jam on toast, both is superior, but usually I am too lazy to bother doing both because I am in a hurry. When I have the extra time (30 seconds to head up cold butter) and I want the best jam sandwich, it has to have butter. If i don't want jam then butter by itself is better of course.

[Anonymous No.15245778]

I had a girlfriend who ate butter and honey toast, that was something weird (although she made me try and it's nice), but yeah I have done butter and jam, mostly I try to make some with butter and some with jam, but both is pretty good too

Based, jam and cream cheese is the patricians choice

[Anonymous No.15245786]

I've always had my toast with butter and jam. Once in the UK (I'm not from the UK) this guy offered me some toast and he only put jam on them, which I thought was so weird. They were so dry, idk what it is but it makes it so much better with both.

[Anonymous No.15245807]

I don't eat Jam.
If I eat toast, I use butter and bread as a topping.

>>15244084
It tastes best with both and gets a bit dry with only the jam and no butter even if it sounds like it shouldn't but I would add a bit of cheese on top as well both for taste but also for easier handling

[Anonymous No.15245874]

>>15245867
wth why did you add the butter on top or did you mix them you have the butter on the bottom and don't mix it around with the jam so it looks nasty what's the matter with you

[Anonymous No.15245875]

Why would you not do both? You need a fat component.

It's good, make sure you use a proper cheese, like a mid to strong cheddar

[Anonymous No.15245946]

>>15245923
Nah I'm not fucking with you it's great, I'd rather not eat jam or marmelade on bread at all if I don't have cheese to put on it.

I usually use a pretty mild cheese that hasn't been stored well at all I think on sandwiches like that but I don't see why more flavorful cheese wouldn't be just as good.

Please just don't be weird and do like pic related I mean sure it tastes good as well but it kind of nullifies one of the reasons other than taste to use the cheese in the first place, it goes butter jam/marmelade and then cheese

Eating jam toast without butter is degenerative by itself. Of course spread jam lighter than usual.

Yes. I like raspberry jam and butter on my toast.

[Anonymous No.15248705]

>>15244084
Do you put the butter on first and then the jam, or do you put the jam on first and then the butter, or do you mix the butter and jam together first and then apply it to the toast?

You know i wonder what would happen if you put the jam and butter into a blender, mix them together and then put the toast in the blender to integrate it within. Then you bake it in the oven until it's back to a solid form.

[Anonymous No.15248719]

>>15244084
One or the other, not both. Butter overpowers basically any jam, putting them together just negates the jam and you end up with too much liquid and the toast gets cold and soggy instantly. If you want both, make one piece with butter and another with jam, or if you eat like a bird then cut one slice in half and do one on each half.

[Anonymous No.15249708]

Put both on a fresh biscuit

[Anonymous No.15249737]

>>15248705
Putting the butter on first allows the jam to spread better, you could mix them but you're really only supposed to put on a thin layer of butter in order to get more jam

[Anonymous No.15249915]
