I love toast. Simple buttered toast. _smacks lips_ I dare say toast makes life worth living. It’s convenient and travels well as I dash out the door to warm up my car. Pancakes and waffles are more of a weekend thing. I realize that many people don’t like breakfast. But if you are a breakfast-er, what do you eat? ---

**Racer** , I about fell out of my chair laughing at the thread title. I’m not a big fan of toast. Waffles and pancakes though, that’s some good livin’. I could eat doughnuts till they were coming out of my ears, but I have some discipline. Usually I just have cereal. Cinnamon Life is my absolute favorite, but usually more expensive than I want to spend. ---

Damn, I love toast too! It’s such a lovely program! I feel like making a CD right now just so I can hear the little sound when it’s finished. ::runs off to make a CD:: Ding! My toast is done! ::does happy dance:: Oh, that kinda toast. Hrmph. I’ll just go back to my software now. ---

Got Napster? Go get the Heywood Banks song “Toast”. I’m sure you’ll love it. 🙂 ---

Wasn’t there also a “Toast” done by The Street Band about mpffffm years ago? Mmmmmm bagels. ---

I am SO a breakfaster 😃 My usual fare involves: applesauce, scrambled eggs, some form of potato, a bowl of Crispix or Corn Chex, a glass of 2% milk, and a glass of orange juice. Mmmmm. And - if I’m _really_ lucky - the dining hall has their breakfast burritos. When I’m home, usually granola cereal, or Eggos with peanut butter and cold maple syrup. MMMMMmmmmm. **Simetra** , I second the recommendation for Heywood’s “Toast Song.” ---

Mmm, toast! I also love toast with butter. It’s the simple pleasures, I tell ya. My favorite breakfast food? Far and away, coffee. But I’ll usually have toast or a bagel with peanut butter along with the coffee. ---

Mmm, warm toast. [Except when the butter is still too hard to spread properly and ends up tearing holes in the toast. (And don’t give me that margerine stuff. Blecch!)] And a wee bit of cinnamon/sugar mix I keep in a jar by the toaster. If I get up too late for toast, there’s always potato bagels at Einsteins. ---

Sourdough toast. yep. Other toast is acceptable, but pales in comparisson to the glory that is sourdough. I feel dearly, truly, sorry for those of you in other parts of the country who can’t enjoy true sourdough. ---

I, too, love toast. Not just any toast… I prefer diner made toast. For, you see, I’m incapable of making a decent piece of toast on my own. Something about those magic toasters they have in high-volume diners… I order breakfast food half the time when I eat out, just to get the side of toast. I’m so glad I’m not alone! ---

“One piece or two?” I ask myself. As I grab the bread Off the shelf. I drop the bread Into the slots. Two of course, I like toast lots. I hope the butter Softens in time For the sweet toast That will be mine. Ka-chink goes the toaster. Mine at last! The butter she spreads Smooth as glass. I crunch and munch And eat the toast down. And when it’s gone I suddenly frown. A tear to my eye Silently comes, As I see my plate - nothing but crumbs. ---

I don’t like toast! \ Breakfast foods in general make me a little sick to my stomach, so I can’t really eat toast without a dose of pepto anyway. But damn, I love Pepto Bismol. ---

A Toast! Gimme English muffin bread with soft butter or a true English muffin with more of the same. Put some of the scrambled eggs on it, some ground black pepper, bliss.

My breakfast consists of some coffee and a cigarette [okay, so you can’t eat a cigarette…it’s just a big part of my morning routine…you can’t have coffee without a ciggie in the mornin’] ---

On the weekends, I make a trip to Einstein Brothers, get a dozen bagels, many of them asiago cheese. I move the toaster to the kitchen table, and put butter and cream cheese on the table, as well as knives for slicing and spreading same. If I’m feeling ambitious, there’ll be OJ and coffee 🙂 Gotta love Sunday routines! Robin ---

My breakfast is always a cup of coffee and one or two slices of toast. (Lately its just one because I don’t eat much in the mornings… I’m not that hungry… though if Grandma makes pancakes or french toast I will eat it. I also sorta miss having Panakukua which is really yummy…) I only eat toast because we don’t really have anything else to eat for breakfast… if I could I would eat toasted bagels with cream cheese (preferably onion bagels with herb and garlic cream cheese but since I rarely brush my teeth before running out the door that wouldn’t be a good idea…) _sings as she wanders off_ When all the toast is burned And all the world has turned And Captain Crunch is waving farewell Let this song remind you That your soul will find you And they don’t serve breakfast in hell [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/damn-i-love-toast/51556.md?page=2)
