Do you butter the correct side of the bread?

[Merlin5]

This is a highly scientific and extremely important question. So, you know how loaves can have one side with contours different from the other side. When you're taking your slices of bread out the bag or cutting your fresh loaf to make a sandwich, do you make sure to butter the second slice on the side that will line up with the contours of the first slice to make a perfect sandwich? I do sometimes, if I bother to think about it. In this advanced drawing I've prepared, you can see what I mean.

If you were to butter both the sides showing in my diagram (exhibit 1)
then when you put them together you will have an unmatched sandwich.

I do make the best threads, I know.

I'm not sure if I do lol but I've always buttered both sides of the slice, just love the taste of warm melted butter.

 

[Hyburnate]

Yes, yes I do

 

[Merlin5]

Yes, yes I do

lol

I'm just eating some lovely toast, buttered, marmalade, peanut butter, and a cup of tea. Didn't make a toasted sandwich because it's far too complicated at this time of night to work out the correct side to butter.

Yes, I try but sometimes forget.

It's not hard to do properly. Get out two bits of bread, don't seperate them just yet, put them on the bread board still together, then flip the top one. It's then impossible to have an asymmetric sandwich.

symmetrical sandwich = win
I cut it into 2 triangles anyway though.

also any slices with holes in would go straight in the bin

not that I eat bread anymore

For days on which I think the symmetry of the universe needs enhancing, I line them up. On days when the universe is just too lacking in entropy, I make my contribution with broken symmetry.

I always do this. I thought everyone did . I hate having bits of bread jutting out that don't line up, for some reason.

I don't use butter, I use olive oil if anything. And I do matching, who the hell doesn't?

 

[Maccapacca]

Yes anything else is just wrong

 

[COYS]

of course

 

[King Damager]

Of course..

[DirtyJester]

what do you do with just one round...

 

[DirtyJester]

One round requires two slices, you heathen.

Regarding the OP - yes, I butter the correct side. Well, I use margarine/soft butter/whatever it actually is.

...since when?

 

[sigma]

what do you do with just one round...

I doubt anyone does.

 

[DirtyJester]

I doubt anyone does.

Really, next you will say you never use the heels...

Completely mis-read what you wrote.

What I meant to say was that I doubt anyone intentionally chooses to butter the wrong side. No idea how I interpreted what you wrote as being that though!

symmetrical sandwich = win

this, then i cut 1cm away from diaganal for perfect win (diaganal pointy corners with no filling =fail and a vertical cut is how my mum did my packed lunches so that = fail as well )

Pfft pleb.... I take the Tetris cut approach for more interesting sarnies!
