This morning I was looking forward to having toast and jam.
I was ready to butter my toast.......... but I spread the jam first. 😳
I had to add the butter in a way that it was mixed with the jam. Still tasty but it's not the same.
I know I'm a monster.....

Please tell me I'm not the only one to fuck up something as simple as toast and jam.

Mnhq need to take this down, or at least put a trigger warning

You were a monster when you even considered putting both butter and jam on toast together.

I once opened a lovely new pack of coffee, and poured the whole thing into an 8 cup cafetiere.

The logical solution was to pour it back out into a container, and carry on as normal, but I hadn't had any coffee yet, so I looked at it for about 3 minutes, then had a little cry.

I was so tired I poured coffee into my orange juice rather than the empty mug next to it this morning, ruining both.

Butter and jam is a standard thing to put on toast. I’m not getting the hate for it.

The only acceptable topping with butter is marmalade.

Toast & jam? Change that to jam on toast then there’ll be no more fuck up.

I agree with the butter or jam purists. But for future mishaps of this nature, butter the un-jammed side and eat as if you were conducting a culinary experiment. Nothing screams fuck-up louder than blobs of Anchor amongst the Bonne Maman.

No worse than spreading cream on top of jam on a scone surely?

Cocolapew · 16/07/2021 15:31

Jam OR butter, not both you heathen
🤢

groundcontroltomontydon · 16/07/2021 15:31

If you struggle with toast and jam never ever attempt an Ottolenghi recipe - the body count would be horrendous

BarleyMop · 16/07/2021 15:32

I left my pants on in the shower this morning. Seemed a pretty basic error

Just jam! You seriously are sick! Toast without butter is just WRONG!!
MordredsOrrery · 16/07/2021 15:33

If you're going to do that just make it with jam and clotted cream - if it's OK on a scone it's surely OK on toast, no?

PurpleDaisies · 16/07/2021 15:34

Clotted cream on toast is all kinds of wrong.
