What do you put on bread? Not as lubricant, or savoury...as sweetening.
I'm sorry if I missed out your favourite.
Pick the 3 you like most

I don't particularly like fruity flavors on bread. Or any fruit flavors on pastries.
So it's only hazel nut and peanut butter.

Lemon curds, too, as far as memory can take me...

If chocolate's a choice, I'd take almost always them.
Purple yam, too. But I'm aware that's not a common choice.

Maybe, just maybe, honey, too, to some extent.


... Though, I may try orange or mandarin marmalade. Never tried them. Never knew it even exists. :o

I didn't think of honey.......and I keep bees !

I only had 20 options so I removed chocolate spread, probably should have ditched redcurrant
I can't believe I forgot honey.

In Australia and UK orange marmalade is just called... marmalade

Place in town sells a jam / preserve from strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and currant. It's delicious.

I don't eat much bread because everyone in my house is gluten free and gf bread is frankenfood in my opinion.

But if I do get real bread, butter is all I need. Bread and butter. Perfect.

As for the selections, I've gone with Orange marmalade because my granddad always had it and it reminds me of being at his house. Also lemon curd because its another thing from childhood. I like it cheap and fluorescent yellow. And strawberry jam. But that's more of a scone thing, imo.

Some would rather... Spread some butter and directly put bits of refined sugar into the bread.

Usually toasted, letting the butter melt and the bread harden a bit.

:lol: Well, since sugar isn't a qualified spread even if it's a sweetener... How about caramel? :twisted:


Another unavailable spread; condensed milk.

... Does cake icing count? :lol:
How about ice cream of any desired flavors?

Homemade peach jam. I add just a touch of cinnamon. It's so good on warm biscuits with butter.

Varies but these days we don't buy jam as since they no longer put sugar in them due to the sugar tax, they go off within weeks of opening the jar. Also we avoid atrificial sweetners so though we love jam, we tend not to buy it.
Love peanut butter but like artificial sweetners, I avoid it.
You missed out old favourites such as fish paste! YUM!

I voted out of nostalgia. It's so great to sit with a hot cup of tea and a slice of toast with jam, and I think of it fondly, but I'm gluten free so I don't eat bread and I try to limit the sugar I eat so I don't eat jam. My favorite is marmalade with the orange rinds in it. Yum... Sigh... Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

My mum was a coeliac as is my girlfriend. (GF2 ?)
It as astonishing the difference in availability of GF food in the last 20 years.
Apart from the fact it's half as much for twice the price, GF bread and cake is pretty good these days.

Peanut butter and margarine. Cinnamon also looks good.

It's pretty good but it tends to be crumbly. I suppose I could get in the habit of buying it. I don't have celiac disease but avoiding gluten is the only thing that helps a bit with my chronic fatigue.
