Oh, forgot a good one! Marmite and honey on toast.

Marmite is the work of the Devil.
Bovril is King - or it was until it was debased, degraded and disembowelled.

news from leicester:
a man at the walkers crisps factory made a mistake and ran off a huge batch of cheese and prawn flavoured crisps. i guess it didn't work, walkers have taken an 8 million pound hit on it. (i'm trying to see if i can get my hands on some tho and will keep you posted if i do).

Marmite in gravy or any other meat flavoured sauce. The Marmite contains a flavour enhancer (as does Star Anise I believe). Anchovies are also the same (although much more stinkier).

Marmite tastes of Umami google it if you don't know what this is.

I mis-typed that sentence. It should have read:

Marmite is a kind of flavour enhancer, a type of Umami (but couldn't remember that last night - LOL)

Thanks for the memory nudge.

Is this leading up to some joke, like "Nutts Screws Washers and Bolts"?

Peanut butter (Smooth) sandwich made with Granary seeded bread and thinly sliced FRESH onions layered in there is lovely!

Delish.

Oh, you need some extra-mature thinly sliced cheddar in there and some HP sauce, lightly spread over.

Gravad lax or salmon.

Fresh salmon fillets, sugar and sea salt 50/50. Rub all over, add ground juniper berries, ground white pepper and lemon zest all over, skin side down, rub it a bit to ensure adequate mixing, cover with a weight like a plate put it into fridge for 24 hours. Ready!

Same procedure, same salt sugar rub, but add grated ginger instead of juniper? DELICIOUS!

Tuna mayo on one slice of bread and strawberry jam on the other, and slapped together. It shouldn't work but for me it does lol

Discovered after being on summer camp and only being allowed one sandwich at lunch time and couldn't decide between the 2 fillings. Figured I liked them both so how bad could it really be in the same sandwich

Jem... that and the rest of the strange concoctions on this thread sound like something that should only be found lying on the bottom of the dogs dish...

[Jemima]

I tried that but the dog's wouldn't eat it lol

[gaura]

I like jam with cheese.
