UK: Crumpets. Crumpets lightly toasted with butter soaking into its pores, and then lightly toasted once more with a slather of Marmite.
These are nothing like pancakes. You bite into the crispy surface and are met with a butter/Marmite infusion that explodes into the back of your mouth, and whilst you're dealing with that sensual assault, your teeth sink into the soft almost creamy texture of the crumpet itself.
They are divine, and are the sole reason I stay in this cold dreary backwater of a country.
You do know you can get crumpets in any supermarket in sunny Queensland, yeah? You can even get Marmite (but why would you when Vegemite is superior).
Yes, yes, there there, now...
*smothers face with a pillow whilst making shushing noises*
Australian Marmite is from New Zealand and is not quite the same as British.
Vegemite doesn't spread properly and tastes like charcoal.
Change my mind.
Vegemite is superior to marmite, but crumpets are best with butter & honey/golden syrup.
