To hide the crumpets?

The shopping just arrived, I feel I should hide the warburtons crumpets. The other night DH ate last two - but used light salad cream on them instead of butter (well, buttery spread in this house)!!
It's just wrong, such a waste of a good crumpet. I still haven't got over him putting tomato purée on them for the kids and now that's the only way they'll eat them. Whatever happened to just enjoying your crumpet with a bit of butter on?

Light salad cream? Tomato puree? Is your DH well? Grin

You should definitely hide the crumpets and perhaps consider an improvement in your own crumpet toppings Hmm (proper salty butter, nutella or cashew nut butter are recommended in this house).

Crumpets need butter and Bovril. There is no other way.

What the hell attracted you to your dh in the first place?!

I wouldn't have let him past first base with disgusting habits like that. I really think you need to consider that if he can abuse a crumpet in such a reckless way he'll think nothing of abusing you.

Why not just buy more crumpets?! That's my solution - then I put some in the freezer so that the less-dedicated crumpet munchers won't be bothered to prise them apart and you can have them all to yourself.

Can I just chech- we are talking about actual crumpets? It's not a euphemism?
Has to be butter on real crumpets. Also has to be a branded one. Cheap ones are vile.

I knew someone would be a marmite advocate.

And I only buy warburtons. I was almost persuaded by some big thick M&S ones the other day but knew they wouldn't live up to warburtons

Butter is much healthier for you than butter like spread - even when following a weight lose plan - you need much less of it to get the best buttery flavour.

I agree with others neither of you deserve the crumpets!

Crumpets with melted cheese with a scraping of marmite under is the best!
