Beans on Toast

[Secret Chief]

And we often have roast spuds and mash, a couple of veggies, meat (or non meat product for our veggie contingent) perhaps Yorkshire pud or stuffing for sunday dinner.

Standard.

In other news, I've been informed that chick peas are now banned from our house, because herself believes they cause flatulence.

We had a dish with chickpeas last night.

I think she's right.

Who wants to pull my finger?

Not preparing and cooking chick peas properly causes problems. They are one of my staples. So I'll stand by them.

Pulls and runs fast as heck.

 

[Secret Chief]

I'll try anything at least once, even the weirdest dish

Me too. Recently tried tempeh for the first time and now it's an essential in my favourite house special.

 

[Soandso]

Ehhh... I'm good on the beans on toast thing. No thanks. That said, red bean mooncakes are where it's at

What's the lowdown on those?

I have eaten beans
I have eaten toast
I don't want them together

walls must divide beans
and toast; a union would be
abomination

 

[Soandso]

What's the lowdown on those?

It's a dessert. The first time I tried red bean, it was strange, but the more I tried it, the more it grew on me. Every time I go to the Asian store I pick up some mooncakes too. Mee sum bakery in Seattle has the best mooncakes and pork rolls if you find yourself in pikes place

Inverted syllable count in lines 2/3 notwithstanding -- baked beans on toast is not anything like either baked beans or toast separately.

When you eat baked beans
With some toast underneath them
It will change your view.

Okay, let's do a real haiku

Beans languish on toast,
Savoury brown, soft and crisp.
Morning brings the wind.

 

[Wu Wei]

Toast alone is good
Beans alone are also good
Toast and beans are bad

 

[Soandso]

Toast alone is good
Beans alone are also good
Toast and beans are bad

It's the soggy bread factor

 

[Wu Wei]

It's the soggy bread factor

Beans make toast soggy
Toast should never be soggy
Beans ruin everything

I've had this thing sitting in my cupboard for months:

And today was finally the day.

Beans.
On.
Toast.

My life is complete now.

I've had a few different things on toast, but never beans. I'm just curious enough to consider it. Not that difficult sure. I like toast and I like beans.

You do have a point, but I do like my toast a little pliable. Not soggy though.

I've had chili, eggs, BLT, even spaghetti on toast and it seems to work out.

I'm trying to think of other things I have had on toast, besides, butter, jam and jelly. Which I've also had and probably had the most often.
