This thread has gone slightly weird!! Am I in a parallel universe or have I stumbled across the lunatic asylum?

It's better than us having the bun debate. Again.

[adjwholovesmusic]

Bun debate? The mind boggles!! ;-)

Not when it's a whole loaf that is too frozen to even begin to cut 

Sliced bread was first sold in 1928. Use a knife to jimmy a few open & whack them in.

When I lived in Leeds it was called a bap. It is definitely a bun.

The old Joke, "Oasis Soup................... do I get a Roll with it?" springs to mind!!

This also doesn't take into account when you want sandwiches rather than toast. I prefer cheerios and frozen milk for breakfast anyway.

Reading the last few pages has gone from blue and yellow chickens to ketchup and from chocolate in the fridge to Take That.

We need the lineup.

Bang the frozen loaf on the work surface, slices will separate. Sorted.

I have no idea why we're talking toast on this thread, it's not what I came here for but I like it

But if the loaf isn't sliced that's just throwing a rock onto some wood  just ban unsliced bread basically.

If you're putting sauces in the fridge because you prefer the taste of them cold - fair enough. 

If you're putting them in there to keep fresh or last longer - totally pointless. 

They take fucking ages to go off due to the high vinegar content. 

Fridge cold bread is just fucking sick though. 

Sometimes I go to bed wearing a rucksack crammed full of microwave warmed bread and imagine @Scruffylovemonsteris spooning me.

I know the sad case of the soggy microwaved sandwich bread. But if you put a fork into the toaster top where the bread goes you can pull the bread out before it gets fully toasted.

Well we have a 'cancel' button if you can be bothered fiddling around to that extent. Or you can just switch it off at the wall and it pops back up automatically. But be arsed with any of that when it could've just never been frozen in the first place.

Toilet roll hanging against the wall or away from it (as perforated toilet roll was patented to be used)?

I keep mine in the freezer as we've got an industrial Rowland Rutland toaster used in hotels etc because someone in my family owns the company.

Toaster porn...

Away from it. What's the point in setting yourself up to have to reach all the way around and fiddle about grabbing an end you can't see when you could just have it facing you in the first place. It's not like the end of the toilet roll has eyes, it doesn't need to be prevented from watching you shit. Ridiculous.

You've answered your own question there

Away, you might break a nail reaching for it.

I'm off to Indonesia for a month, I think they only have long drops & hose pipes.

When I went there was a conspicuous lack of any paper based products, and an abundance of small buckets of not quite clear water with a ladel in next to you. Was never quite sure what the ladel was for. 

 

Still, never saw anyone with squash in their fridge....

Hello everyone

Because of my love for music festivals I have decided to conduct my dissertation research study on motivation to attend music festivals in the UK and the impact festival design has on motivations & shaping experiences.  Please share your experiences with me by completing this short and easy questionnaire

Your results might be skewed here. And not in a good way

Thanks for the heads up. I will thus fill my rucksack with only bog roll & hand sanitiser. Pre-prep for Glasto I suppose.

It's the only chocolate I will eat & very rarely for special occasions eg Glastonbury.

 

Flatmates have always told me bread goes off faster when kept in the fridge.

Well what a small world Bisque. I used to work for them. 

I must say though, what on earth has this thread turned into!

I hope they treated you well, it was the Rutland side of the family that I'm related to. Fantastic piece of kit my toaster, looks ridiculous in a normal kitchen but always gets a reaction from visitors.
