    Toasted sandwiches are, in my humble opinion, vastly superior to the non-toasted variety. There are a great many reasons for this.

    The most obvious, of course, is that the cheese melts and sticks everything together delightfully.

    Mmm.

    Second benefit is that mayo does not soak into the bread and make it mushy when I bring my lunch to work.

    We are so alike! I've recently bought a George Foreman grill doofer,thingy. Yup, I must agree a toasted ham, cheese and peanut butter sarny is great! I like the stripy effect as well. :D

    Sausages cooked in it are so tasty and stripy. I must experiment with some vegetables. How about marrow with two lots of stripes. :D :o I wonder if you can toast.......................errr perhaps not. +o(

    OK Guys, what is the strangest tostie you have made to date? How about : Bacon, egg, cheese, tomato with gerkin and brown sauce. Nice, but a bit big to get your chops around! :D :erm2:

    More like ice cream weather over here. We've had a few 31°C days already and it's looking like we'll hit temperatures over 50°C this January.

    Probably ham, garlic and marshmallows. It's perhaps an acquired taste...

    I think we could invent some interesting and probably quite tasty fillings. All you need is the imagination. :D

    50c! that would be just right for me, so long as it's combined with very low humidity levels, otherwise that would be most unpleasant. (w) (b)

    We had a toastie bar in College and we tried all sorts of combinations. They had lots of sweet things and it was amusing to combine them with the savoury ones (Dolmio and Caramel was a perennial favourite).

    In Victoria we will most likely have fairly low humidity (it doesn't rain here much; we're in the midst of a drought which has been going on for 6 years already - there are heavy water restrictions and apparently the reservoirs are only 33% full) but in January I'll be touring the East Coast and further north it's the wet season (and even hotter) so you wouldn't like that very much!
