Bacon and eggs on toast - fine. But, sorry Jah, if you make your bacon sandwiches with toast then you're in the wrong. You may as well stick avocado and lettuce and oven-roasted organic Sicilian plum tomatoes with a drizzling of extra-virgin olive oil in at that point. You've spoilt it, so you may as well finish the job.


There are many fine toasted sandwiches, but the humble bacon sandwich ain't one of them.

It saddens me to read some of the comments in this thread, we truly are a divided nation. I'm firmly in the Remain camp, the humble bacon sandwich should remain just that...bacon with the rind left on, buttered soft white crusty bread, squidgy enough to leave fingerprints whilst soaking up the fat still oozing from the rind, finished off with a squirt of HP brown sauce. Job done. Although not for me, I have no objection to red sauce or even mustard, but as soon as you start adding anything else or toasting it, it stops being a bacon sandwich. Take your weird ways with you Leave voters...

Thick fresh white bread X 2, thickly buttered with unsalted butter


Rind on (lightly crisped fat) bacon X 2


Rind on smoked crispy streaky from Nathan X 2


A piece of each bacon type onto one half of each bread slice


Then fold each slice over to make a folded butty


Eat along with a mug of hot strong tea



No sauce here but a little white pepper can work.


Thank you

A bacon sandwich is a bacon sandwich - if it had egg in it, it would be a bacon and egg sandwich.

Strictly speaking its a Bacon and Egg doubler MM.

True, and I really should read threads thoroughly before adding, but I caught a glimpse of Brie and avocado and wanted to restore sanity and yolk stained shirt fronts to the debate. A good bacon and egg sandwich not only has a synergy that leads youngsters to want to explore the stars but is also the happy marriage of the old bacon sarnie and the egg banjo. It was the future once.

Except Daddies


HP 23.1 % sugar..


Daddies 17.2% sugar..


So it's also healthier.

It's the simple and undeniable truth. All other brown sauces are too fruity or too sweet. I don't care what the actual sugar content suggests.


Edit: BUT, a good pork sausage is a better bedfellow for HP sauce than bacon.

NO..


Non alcoholic wine is made just like regular wine.

The grapes are allowed to ferment and the wine is then aged just like any other wine.

However, just before it is bottled, the alcohol is removed. The result tastes like wine but without the buzz.

I'm guessing they acquired it rather than inventing it ?

    • This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon
