Artnoon weirdos! I go to work for 6 hours and come back to mayhem!! 

1. Cream before jam. Because jam is thinner and slippery so if the mahoosive clot of cream sits ontop it will surely slide off? And jam doesn't need to be spread and sticks to cream. Definitely with @lucyginger and @mr gumby here!

2. No butter on any sandwiches ever! i prefer a chutney. Butter only belongs on hot things so that it melts. 

3. Teacakes/scones etc should be eaten in 2 halves.

4. Ketchup with sausage and brown with bacon. 

5. Margarine/Spread is one molecule from plastic. It's just wrong! 

6. Lucy Loo! I cannot believe you made such a rookie mistake to say the r word. I'm reeling in shock here. 

7. Scruff I can't believe you agreed with Quark. I'm reeling in shock here. 

8. Sorry FF, I haven't seen anything from Shaun. 

9. Pablo Honey. 

10. Hi and welcome new posters. @mjsell congrats on tickets!!! 

1. Jam is sticky... unless your using crap jam?

2. Wrong, just wrong.

3. Yes

4. No no no no no no no!! what the actual f*ck?? Red sauce on sausage? You neanderthal  

5. Sometimes it has to do.

6, 7, 8. 9. 10. yadda yadda yadda

Just thought I would throw another bombshell one out there and see what happens.... I used to eat dry weetabix with butter on when I was a kid... dont knock it til you try it... jussayin.

I'm weird - I don't like butter on cold sandwiches, however, I do like butter on sandwiches that have hot things in to the melt the butter.

And what? Butter on cereals??! @Havors what on earth were you thinking?

I cannot believe some of the comments I am reading here, so I am going to set the record straight.

1) Jam before cream. This is undisputable. How do you spread sticky jam on top of lovely smooth cream? Are you insane? Jam first, then slather the cream on top - at least an inch thick.

2) Always use butter regardless of filling in both scones and sandwiches. Margarine is acceptable but not as good as real butter and should be avoided if possible.

3) Hot Cross Buns are eaten as two separate halves, not as a sandwich.

4) The same applies to scones.

5) This is making me extremely hungry.

9) Pablo Honey.

Margarine is never acceptable.

I used to do that too! With a bit of sugar on as well In fact, I think there are some pretend weetabix (store's on brand) at home, might have to have one when i get in! Thanks for the reminder! You can definitely stay!

This sentence doesnt make sense. First jam is slippery and then its sticky - make your mind up!

What about Clover? That's quite a nice margarine, not bad for using when your butter is too hard to spread.

I'm pro margarine in certain circumstances.

Speaking of Weetabix. In New Zealand their version is called Weet-bix and is a lot better.

Butter on top with no milk sounds all sorts of crazy though!

so did I - with sugar sprinkled on !

I still do but with jam or chocolate spread instead on sugar (obviously!)

No cream

[cornish hick]

also are we preferring salted butter or plain ?

The best bacon sarnies are where instead of butter you spread the bread with tomato sauce.

Mr Hack , do you need to go onto my secret sale list as well along with milkyjoe ? Send me reg details and postcode(s) if you want to go in the list xxx

Margarine is never acceptable unless it's for making a cake

I prefer slightly salted, but I don;t mind it plain if that's all there is! 

Also, re marg, I only buy the clover type stuff and it is only for using when the butter is too solid.

Thanks!

The cream is thicker so the jam sticks to it as there's less jam than cream. Too much cream ontop of jam will slide off

Not wanting to rub it in, but they really were superb! Definitely in my top 10 Glasto sets. Fingers crossed they come back soon, so you get a chance to see them.

Also not rubbing it in, but I have to agree! I don't really know much of their stuff but it was one of the tightest sets I've seen ever. I would go see them again! Hope they come back too!
