How do all you food lovers like your toast??

I'm very specific about mine, must be soft yet warm enough that the butter melts into it fully. Real butter only not margarine, as I lather it on my toast my arteries say no but my tastebuds are keen.
I love toast almost as much as I love my dogs.

@j95 toast is the best. I like it best slightly brown. Crispy but not burnt. And the butter must spread evenly, or as evenly as possible, over as much of the toast as I can manage. Which is why I leave the butter out before I put the bread in so it is soft enough to be easily spreadable and then when it melts into the toast there aren't clumps.
I take my toasting very seriously. 😛

@N1ghtW1ng What about toasted sandwiches? Smiley Tongue

 

Not exactly a funny food story but I've been watching the show Nigella Express lately, where Nigella Lawson shows you how to whip some quick meals for dinner parties. It's hilarious watching her because she's so contrived and passive-aggressive towards her ingredients Smiley Tongue

@Myvo perhaps a little browner than golden, sometimes even very dark brown always with cheese. Always.

Hahaha @j95 please tell me you took a photo of this salami experiment. I cannot even imagine how it turned out.

*puts hand up* Me! I've had it a couple of times, @Ben-RO. But not the comercial kind. 😛 I've even held liquid nitrogen!

I have four words for you guys that will change your lives: Deep-Fried Golden Gaytimes. 

 

Totally amazing! How did it backfire? I'm literally obbessed with them now. All I want to do is eat deep-fried Golden Gaytimes. That's basically the point of my existance. I have no other function.

But... @KitKat... aren't golden gaytimes icecreams?

Ben-ROPosted 25-09-2015 01:08 PM

DEEP FRIED GOLDEN GAYTIMES ARE THE BEST! @KitKat

Closely followed by deep fried mars bars.

 

@N1ghtW1ng yes they are very real. But be warned. They are highly addictive. Don't just go in and order one expecting to be able to stop after that. You'll have to have at least 5.

@Ben-RO @KitKat I both want to try them, and then not. (But probably will 😛 I'll let you know how I go if/when I do!)

My love for scorching hot (spice) food. I think we all know how that back fires. 😛 

 

If I hate deep fried icecream, would I hate deep fried gaytimes?

@stonepixie

They are pretty similar. So yeah you might not enjoy them. 

Has anyone here had liquid nitrogen icecream?

@Ben-RO! During the QLD Ambassadors workshop, some of the new ambassadors and I went to a liquid nitrogen icecream bar. You could have come along with us! Smiley Very Happy They had Nutella icecream Heart

I love homemade pizzas!! I always put way too much on them though and can only eat a slice or two

Every time someone mentions dates, the first thing my brain thinks is the going out with someone not the food! Leading to a second or two of confusion and then realisation that it's the food 😛

The first time i tried to make my own woodfired pizza, i didn't realise how quickly they cook. Thought it'd be fine to leave it in for 10 minutes. It was well and truly cremated by the time i came back 😛

 

Ugh, that weird numb sensation that happens after you burn your toungue is the worst!  @Whitelion@Myvo@Zekk

Love woodfired pizza @Ben-RO ! It's one of the things I had to give up! (For medical reasons okay?) 🙂

I really hankered for 'something' this arvo. So instead of coffee, or licorice, or the kiddo's porridge, or anything else here, I had three or four dates!.... Aaaargh!!! 😛

Ben-ROPosted 23-09-2015 11:13 AM

Ahh I love Dates, they're soooo tasty. I have to buy small amounts at a time, because whatever number of dates i have in my possession is the number of dates that I will eat @evanescence
