    @Evkob Beans *and* toast 🤔 It’s beans *on* toast. Queen? We don’t have one!

    I’ll give you the queuing, but what better way is there? And we defo have a lot of stuff in museums that probably shouldn’t be.

      Hey just because Betty’s dead doesn’t mean that (some of) you lot aren’t still weirdly loyal to her.

      I’d argue that beans and toast is a completely accurate way of describing the dish, as is beans on toast.

        That isn’t the name, its like saying:

        • Mac with Cheese
        • Sausage in a bun
        • Chicken BLT Sandwich

        Sure its technically correct but people either won’t recognise it or think your saying it weirdly.

          I only think Mac with Cheese is weird on this list.

          For sausage in a bun, I would assume you mean a sausage patty on a roll. Which is a pretty popular sandwich. Throw on an egg and some cheese and you’ve got a classic breakfast sandwich. It’s just called “sausage egg and cheese on a roll” I’d assume if you said bun you’d probably get the same thing.

          For chicken BLT, that’s a real thing I’ve seen before. It’s just a BLT with some chicken included. It’s just a variant.

          So it seems like you’re proving the opposite point you’re trying to make.

        The beans are not amiable colleagues of the toast. The beans are ON the toast, proudly displaying their dominance as they slowly turn the toast to glorious orange mush.

        Totally different things.
