Triangles or Halves

[Longsider]

In true close season boredom I was wondering what the consensus is. When cutting a slice of toast is it into two halves going from top to bottom of the slice of bread or triangles by cutting from top to bottom corners diagonal.
For me it's always triangles, my wife is always halves. Watching my two children cut up their toast this morning they are also of the triangle persuasion. My work is done.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Eat it in one slice or cut it into soldiers for your egg.

Honestly

We used to be a proper country

Woke nonsense

[Ric_C]

I've always cut in halves from the left to the right, as I quite like eating a top half and a bottom half

[LeadBelly]

Top and bottom halves for me too, eat the bottom rectangular half first then the rounded half.

[Roosterbooster]

Rectangle slice: cut into top and bottom halves

Square(ish) slice: triangles

[Rileybobs]

Triangles are halves. If you insist on cutting, the most efficient way is to make the cut across the width of the bread. This expends less energy and results in less debris.

Weetabix

The only cutting of toast should be in the shape of soldiers for dipping in your chucky egg.

Other than that, butter it and eat it like a man.

[rufus lumley]

Doorstop.

Take a thick slice of Sourdough bread, toast it and thickly spread with butter, when thats melted into the hot toast spread with mashed Avocado, salt and pepper to taste then top with a poached Egg.

Pfft never get a mortgage carrying on like that

[Spike]

If you’re having stress over the shape of your toast then just have crumpets

[Folkestoneclaret]

If you''re a Blackburn fan it should be halves, or maybe ever-decreasing circles...

[Stanbill05]

Folded lengthways on my own, cut triangles for company. One should be flexible.

[Rowls]

One of each for variety.

I just can’t get on the avocado bandwagon.

At a push, I can eat it if it’s covered in sauce as part of a prawn cocktail, but on toast with an egg, nope. Too much sliminess going on with the avocado and egg yolk and they don’t taste that great either.

Now if you’d stopped at buttered sourdough with an egg, that’s a different story.

I was never a fan. And someone made me a very simple sandwich of roast chicken slices and some avocado, like another poster further up said, plenty of salt and pepper. Delicious.

Back to toast. Im a full slice man. No cut needed. Often biting round the crust first to leave the buttery centre. I'm 32 with the eating habits of a ten year old.

For a great combination with toast, leftover chilli cannot be beaten!

[SPC&G]

I like avocado with salmon in those sushi boxes from supermarkets. Would never have eaten it otherwise but it’s ok, honestly. I surprise myself sometimes. It’s whole slice for me but halves for butties. Never triangles.

[ecc]

Triangles every time. It's a given.

[dougcollins]

I was sure this was gonna be the old corner flag argument.

[BleedingClaret]

I thought what a silly irrelevant thread topic

Then I thought Halves obviously,
I always feel cheated in some way by triangles, even though I know that makes no sense

But they just seem so pretentious

[dougcollins]

Went to Robertshaws in Skipton for a full English this morning.

My mate was given halves, I was given triangles.

That kind of inconsistency is unacceptable.

[Rowls]

Triangles don't work well if the bread is too rectangulary.

Triangles is best with squarest bread.

I'm actually quite taken with those irregular triangles.

I find them obtuse, though soon tamed with butter.

The Chef in Robertshaws has a look and decides who looks a Triangley and who looks a Halfy ... you obviously exude a triangley vibe Doug and your mate a halfy look

Scalenes are the worst triangles. Everybody knows it.

[CoolClaret]

For toasties, I like triangles; for sandwiches, I like rectangles.

He's a big ******, I'll tell you that- French, he could play no 8 for Les Blues!

If the breads rectangular a Scalenes the bestest, but if its square an Isoceles a cracker, rare to find an Equilateral trangle slice of tast unless the breads been squished

[Rowls]

Warburtons need to invent the parallelo-loaf.

What do want?

Equilateral toast

When do want it?

Breakfast time
