Eggs and toast. Toasted cheese. Toast and coffee. Toast with baked beans. Toast with peanut butter and banana. Toast with any of 40 options of jelly, jam, marmalade, and preserves available. Dip toast Buttered in hot chocolate. Garlic toast at Sizzler's. Club sandwich on toast. French toast at morning buffet.

Toast is so passe.  I guess you could say toast is "toast".  Baked beans???Yecchhhh., absolutely disgusting! 

Rice is the future, so if you cannot eat it, best return home!

Am I being avant garde by suggesting that you can enjoy them both but at different meal times..??

Toast and beans on most breakfast menus here that offer farang options. Didn't say I eat it. Rice is bad for diabetics. I prefer noodles. People come to Thailand to add choices to their life, not to follow whatever guidelines you set out for them. Perhaps you should be the one out of here.

Salted butter on brown toast.... perfect.

There's lunch sorted, then: Tesco sardines on buttered toast. ?

But not the tomato sauce ones, Bill. Then again, except for tuna, every fish here seems to come in tomato sauce. 

Tomato Sauce is the ONLY acceptable dressing for this culinary experience

Taken on a chilly afternoon with a few cups of Darjeeling.

Not sure if it's available here - has anyone seen it?

Good old British Bovril is sometimes available

I made eggy bread this morning & it was fantastic with the chopped up ham, onion & coriander [emoji39]

I love rice, but I love toast for breakfast. It is possible to diversify you know, or do you just eat boiled rice 3 times a day? Rice is the future? Why, is it new as a food item, or has it been around a thousand years?

There is always this.

You are correct Sir [emoji23]

Does it have to be a piss*ng contest? Aussies prefer Vegemite, the Brits prefer Marmite, end of.

Nope not at all, I was born & bred in Aus & also lived in the UK for 11 years so actually like both [emoji39]

Hate to say chaps but there is only one spread and it is available in Thailand - it's called Marmite

 

Everything else is just much yuck and not worthy of a piece of well toasted bread.............

You're a Brit or Kiwi, right? That's OK, we can't expect you to understand Vegemite. Any more than we can understand cold pork pies and warm beer.

Makro sometimes carries little jars of pesto - supposedly as sauce, but works as spread just as well. Not the best quality, to be sure, but been lazy making my own. And very occasionally, there are chimichurri jars as villa. Again, better results if home made.

 

Tahini is another good choice, not hard to make, and taste can be easily adjusted. Usually get some when I travel, but can buy at villa etc. (check dates!).

 

MIL makes a mean garlic sauce, very thick and very pungent. She was delighted I was totally into it, so Mrs. now trusted with recipe. Not the best choice if you have a morning meeting.

 

What I miss most are olive based spreads.

The OP could try the Black Swan range available at Rimping. From memory, tapenade, tabouli and hommous. Apologies if I haven't got the spelling right.

No Rimping in Pattaya AFAIK.

Tapenades are olive-based. Readily available at Rimping.

Or, if you prefer your own brand, drain black or green pitted olives and then blend with a thick plain yoghurt.

Possibly Tops, Big C or Tesco may carry the brand.

Thanks, but bit far from Rimping. The readily available olives here are meh. Tried it a while back and wasn't satisfied with results. Will probably get into it when new kitchen is up, though.

I imagine black olives, Italian tinned tomatoes, garlic and chili thrown in a blender might make a nice toast topping.

Ever considered taking a walk around the shops to see what they have? Could be very informative

Sorry, I use fresh tomatoes though!

No, never gave it a thought, it's a novel idea though.

I have found that the flavour of local tomatoes is a bit hit and miss. The tinned ones are much more flavoursome.

I got one. Hate cleaning the thing. And if it wasn't obvious enough...laziness is an issue.

True...But if i use them i drain them first otherwise the toast goes soggy...NO ONE likes soggy toast .
(this is just my assumption, no offence meant to soggy toast eaters, & no intended potential legal action will be taken seriously) [emoji12]
