I am apparently Angelic, even though I admitted to dipping the butter knife in the jam jar. I got the same result for strawberry jam and for orange marmalade. At least I'm consistent.

I got 'Status Quo Lover' too, which is unfortunate as my problem with the quiz is that I never have the same thing so couldn't answer the questions. I toast as the mood takes me.
(jam/marmalade/butter cross-contamination however is definitely the work of the devil).

Peacekeeper. That probably follows from my role of taking the overdone toast which, to me is often little more than warm bread.
nb: the quiz breaks down for cheese on toast which needs three toppings: i) spread with Marmite ii) add sliced tomato iii) add cheese and place under grill. Beware, tomato is scalding hot!

You Got: Playful
You always try to find the fun and humour in every situation and are always good for a laugh and a bit of banter. There is plenty of time for being serious when you are dead and buried! You have a healthy childish streak that allows your inner child to flourish more than most. Whether it's drawing smiley faces onto your toast or sharing the latest YouTube film - you bring the best out in everyone and everything. This extends to food. It should be more fun, less fuel!
I'm not sure it's me at all - and I also missed the Marmite - for me it is either Marmalade or Marmite.
I agree with Sioni about cheese on toast except I would also add a bit of Branston™ pickle on the side of the plate. My mate coming out in March doesn't know it yet but he'll be bringing both Branston and crumpets with him.

Flaw in the quiz being that if you answer "honey" to the topping question it still asks you what kind of jam you like! I have doubts about these alleged top scientific boffins if they can't even make a quiz which amends questions based on your previous answer. Also, Bovril is much better on toast than marmite (but spread it thin or you'll get salt poisoning)
And where's the chocolate spread on the toppings choices?

I'm a Perfectionist:
quote:
Only the best is good enough for you. If it's not organic, sliced from bread baked slowly to perfection and toasted to your very specific requirements, well... God help the mis-shapen strawberry piece in your morning jam! You know what you like and how you like it, so why accept anything less? You have high expectations of yourself and of other people and are probably known as someone who does a job well. When it comes to what you eat, you're very particular about what you put into your mouth and you'll never find toast crumbs in your sheets. Breakfast in bed = best plates and a tray, because if a job's worth doing...
So sue me. Breakfast is the high point of most days. You might as well get it right.

I'm another one who's disappointed that Marmite isn't included. I always have Marmite and either marmalade or honey on my toast for breakfast. (Not on the same slice I hasten to add - one slice of each)
Toast and jam just doesn't seem right for breakfast, though quite nice as a bedtime snack.

I am "on trend" and likely to embrace all the latest trends, such as beards. Not clear if I'm supposed to be growing a beard, which might prove challenging, or embracing one.

Not rubbish, it means the designers are at least marginally sane, have rudimentary taste-buds and minimal sadism.
But the test is rubbish as there is no one correct set of answers. It is a mood thing which I would chose at any given time.
Boring test made for boring, predictable people.
No, it is not me who is odd! It is all of you!

"Surprisingly" is the key word. It's difficult to imagine the depth of perversity it would take to conceive of such an abomination--surely there's something about it in Leviticus...

Cheese and marmite is another combination that works surprisingly well.

Cheddar, or cream cheese and Marmite are good. Blue cheese and honey, and Gjetost and banana are surprisingly good too.

Garlic roulette goes well with banana
And slices of Caerphilly cheese spread with honey are very enjoyable, even without toast underneath
