Can you not make it public so we can fish out the wrong’uns and laugh mercilessly at them?

What's the point in toasting it if you're going to eat it cold
Think it was you that suggested this for toast. Still an absolute game changer for me. Although dangerous as i tend to eat the whole pack as soon as it's been delivered!

When I'm really hungry, I'll throw in 4 slices, and since it toasts in sets of 2 I'll wait like a minute before putting the second side on

For its rigidity.
Frozen bread is also quite nice.
Heretic
Has to be hot surely? If it goes cold I will eat it but that's very different to intentionally having it cold. That's more that I hate wasting food.
Proper butter technique is also required. Far too many people carve out huge holes in the butter then try and force it through the toast until their left with a tattered mess. You need a thin layer by scraping a good knife across the whole block of butter. That has the added benefit of melting quickly and doesn't cool the toast too much, then it has to be spread right to the edges. Leaves the butter in a good state for the next user and gives you the perfect toast in the process, not sure why you'd do it any other way

I love the taste of taking a bite of white hot buttered toast and then taking a sip of tea, the taste is heavenly.
To those heathens talking about margarine - not only are you wrong but you can't actually buy margarine in the UK - it's all called spread (something to do with the fat content - it has to be 80% or higher to be legally called margarine iirc. Maybe now we've left the EU margarine will make a comeback?). Spread is equally wrong
