Re: How do you have your Marmite - or not ;)
My top weekend destination, brugge, chocolate, beer and frites with any sort of pornographic sauce you can think of. Whats not to love.
However, an important question re cheese on toast. Onion, yes or no, if yes, spring onion, white, red or the hard arse yellow stuff? Is garlic an option?

I can relate, a bit of spring onions nice. I have also tried a garlic infused butter that was acceptable.

Can i relate another nuclear sandwich option. Here in the caribbean i have an interest in a bacon business, i in fact first showed them how curing pork worked. Anyhow, my cousin/pig farmer bought 20 10kg piglets and i saw a possibility. I had one slaughtered at 15kg, and cured it. We recently rotisserie barbecued a whole bacon piglet. 15kgs of the most tender succulent baby bacon you could imagine. Truly, the most baconly bacon in existance. Its very ears and snout were the stuff of baconly dreams. Not for the civilised world, but feel free to imagine.

'Bacon' here is way apart from how I remember it from my UK days, to be honest I microwave it crisp, crumble it and add it to stews as a flavouring...

Listen chaps, you really need to try oude gouda. Thats aged gouda. Frankly the crack cocaine of welsh rarebit toppings, if you think you like cheese on toast, whether its with marmite, ketchup, worcester sauce, kimchi or nam plah, [thai fermented fish sauce] you need to try the dutch stuff.. that is all.

uk_g has form here. There was a bit of discussion in a previous thread about cheese on toast, where he professed a tendency to use a microwave to melt both oude gouda and (sacrilege indeed) raclette. Hence the emoji...

Vegemite is angels food. Not every supermarket in the UK stocks it, so my sisters bring me huge jars when they visit. I honestly don't think I could live without it

We took some over the niece/nephews when we were over there last year. Turns out their local ASDA stocks it. Who knew?

Or oude Brugge... our favourite.
Sod academia, there's no substitute for practical experience
Bats' hummus idea sounds interesting, I would likely need to revisit my butter/marmite ratio though...
I shall have to put this on hold for a bit, as we're heading off tomorrow 'up north' for another week in the land of moules + frites, currywurst, proper beer and the absolutely top grill-able cheeses
