Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan of marmite. But I'm not an animal. I have it on toast, or a bagel, or maybe a toastie if I'm feeling reckless.

But my son wants marmite sandwiches. Sandwiches! How is it possible to spread marmite on bread without the bread disintegrating? Is there a technique that in my five decades on this earth I have not been able to master?

There is spreadable butter on here, some has already melted at room temp so it's not that visible. But it's a tricky balancing act with the wee man. Too much butter is a negative, but he needs to be able to see it also. I'm hoping he mellows as he grows older, but I suspect that's a vain hope! I shall try and perfect my technique. I've almost always been a toast and martite person, so I think this is a just a life skill I have never learned properly.

Best advice I can give in that case is make sure all the ingredients are at room temp, otherwise there's no escaping the torn bread situation.
The other option is make them as toast the night before and serve them cold and a little soggy the next morning? Sounds a little bad spelled out like that, but I'd eat that no issue. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ
