Sorry to add more misery to an already grumpy board, but I have another problem that needs airing.

I don't think it's fixtures, but forgive if we've already covered this:-

2 slices of toast, only enough marmite for 1.

Now I loves my marmite, and I loves my marmalade.
Obviously you can't have one slice of each, so what the fook am I supposed to do?

To compound the issue still further one of the slices of bread was a crust, therefore that has to have marmite, so I couldn't go all in for the marmalade.

Once again I apologise for yet more pain and suffering, I'm sure many were looking for a fresh start today.

Why can't you have 1 of each or do you only own 1 knife and no washing up liquid?

Do you have no taste buds?

Marmalade and marmite in the same sitting.

How rude.

The simple answer is to have a toast, marmite SANDWICH then.

1 Marmite and the other plain buttered.

It's the only solution.

I must be crazy then as I would eat the marmite on the crust, drink some tea to cleanse my palate and then have the other slice with marmalade. A meal later in the day would have savoury first and then sweet, so why not breakfast?

Have marmite on one and wipe your ass with the other - it'll taste about the same.

I do like Barnes tho!!

My niece will put a different topping on each quarter of a slice of toast. Marmite, James, chocolate spread and I think peanut butter.

What's the difference between one slice or marmite followed by one slice of marmalade, and a steak followed by a chocolate pudding? It's not madness, it's a classic savoury followed by sweet combination that has served our taste buds well for many a generation.

I have Marmite and peanut butter together on toast, it has to be crunchy though.

Savoury and sweet is all fine and dandy at 8pm after a day of tastebud abuse, but not at 8am.

I wish id just left the regular slice buttered and double dosed the noggin with Marmite.
I tried to have my toast and eat it, but failed, and let everybody down.

Marmite is a satanic abomination against the tastebuds. But I like twiglets, how peculiar.

This. Sometimes being forced to have plain buttered actually reminds you that if you get the level of butter right, it can be quite tasty.

I take it the toast is now cold and nothing will taste any good! So chuck it in the bin and boil an egg.

Brovil is strictly a bi-weekly event between the months of December and February (inclusive).

At which point I pray we don't score in the first 25 mins of the second half.

sorry, your entire premise is flawed, there is no rational reason to not have one slice of each in a sitting. in fact i think it should be advocated. much better than that marmite/peanut butter abomination some think is clever (its not, you only do it for shock value, admit it).
