Yeah, so they're not exactly from England. But dammy, they are good.

Everytime I see Kayless' new sig, I want to run out to the store and buy some.

Mmmmmm....


What do you like on your English Muffin?

And I decided not to post a poll on whether people preferred pulp inclusive or pulp-free orange juice... And then there was the smooth or chunky peanut butter poll.. but I abandonned that thought as well...

But I digress...lol! I've always really enjoyed English muffins, especially the sourdough kind....

I like them best with butter and a sharp chedder. Or maybe a really good raspberry jam

Hey, we can talk about peanut butter here. I like them both.

Orange juice with pulp is by far superior...and excellent when accompanying English muffins!

Sourdough English muffins rule supreme. I like mine slathered with butter...and grape jelly.

Make mine...

...just plain muffins...

...dunked into hot cappuccino.

Otherwise omellette and bacon will do.

Just butter please.

I can be rather boring sometimes.

I love the crunchy edges.

lol! Well I like chunky peanut butter much better than the smooth variety. The natural stuff, with just the right amount of sea salt

And I agree, the OJ with the pulp is way better I tend to like Tropicana, I'm not sure you can get it down that way

lol! yes, I can recall more than a few times I have eaten English muffins with crunchy peanut butter.

Hmmm.. while we are on the subject of things like this. Has anybody ever noticed that when you eat breakfast in a restaurant they almost always give you strawberry jam with your toast? Now I really hate strawberry jam, especially the commercial stuff, It is way too sweet... Give me Seville marmalade any day
*eek* my British side must be showing again!

LOL.Well, if that is the same as orange marmalade, I am with you on that, but you have not lived untill you have tried Jalapeno preserves.....and watermelon rind marmalade is a fabulous thing too

ah, so they are like crumpets. I like them with butter, but if I'm hungry I prefer them with chilli sauce and cheese.

they also rock with marmite.

Any decent spread of jam would do for me

However I am tempted to try Scaydes proposal although without going to great lengths to find Canadian bacon, should find a decent Australian substitute

Bleck. I hate english muffins. Taste like bloomin' cardboard. Maybe if I wanted my tongue to become instantaneously dry and in no mood for any flavor, Id go ahead and eat one...

I much prefer those biscuits they sell at KFC or Pillsbury. Or maybe a croissant...those things are yummy!

Dont fall into the clutches of the english muffin! REVOLT! Convert to biscuitism or the croussantarians! Free coffee to the recent convertees!

The Superior English Muffin!

Bah. Croissants are light and fluffy...though they are good, though.

The english muffin is a study in the superiority of high calorie grain products, like the bagel. The versatile english muffin...able to be a hardy platform for:

Butter and jam...it is blase to use the same instrument for the spreading of both these items on the english muffin.

Quick pizza...a sourdough english muffin is infintely superior as a platform for pizza ingredients than, say, a biscuit (too small); a bagel (hole in the middle); a croissant (too light and fluffy, not manly enough for the task ); sliced bread (the very thought!).

Breakfast sandwich...pile whatever you want on it, the english muffin can take it. It is not inherently flawed like the bagel, which has an irritating hole in the center.

Snack on the go...go ahead, stick an english muffin in your back pocket! It's flat to begin with, making it flatter won't hurt anything. When you're hungry, find the nearest toaster, borrow some butter and jam, and viola! Hits the spot better than some wimpy apple or sugary candy bar ever could.

Dinner...yes, the english muffin can also feature in the main course of the evening meal. How about this idea: instant salmon filet sandwich! Toss some steamed broccoli florets and rice pilaf on it as well, and you hold in your hands gourmet dining at its most refined...all thanks to the ingenious english muffin!

Lest I forget...stale, hardened english muffins have not outlived their usefulness. No, there are still roles the stalwart english muffin can fulfill, even after it's edibility expires. Such uses:

Canadians: Lose that hockey puck? Never fear...that stale, hardened english muffin is proud to serve you in its place!

Office workers: Bring those stale english muffins to work. They make the ideal paper weight.

Self defense: Yes, that ancient english muffin hurts when used as a hand-propelled projectile weapon. Kepp some on your person just for those emergencies.

lmao!
This thread is beginning to remind me of a humorous, cartoonish book I once read, it was called "101 uses for a dead cat"

Maybe we should create a sub thread, "101 uses For a Dead English Muffin"

Let's see....


When parents no longer know how to fill those Christmas stockings, enter the dead English Muffin. Little Charlie is guaranteed to have endless hours of fun upon discovering so unique a toy....

A thinly sliced very lean honey cured ham would do nicely too

Mmm.I am getting hungry

The best way to enjoy an English muffin is as follows:

1) Bring out a heated skillet.

2) Make a huge batter will chocolate chips in it.

3) Heat the batter into a giant pancake, using the skillet.

4) Add strawberries and ice cream, when finished.

5) Give the English muffin to a neighbor, and wish them good day. Eat the pancake.

Impressing that neighbor with the gift of english muffin goodness is smart move, fable.

LMAO @ Chan and DW. I did find a dead english muffin once in my biscuit bin..it was so hard I could not even break it ......Too bad I had not read this thread yet..we could have had a great game of street hocky

Sweetheart, with both of us on the attack now, a bag of sourdough english muffins won't last longer than 24 hours, tops. They're an endangered species here.
