#like chocolate hazelnut spread or some sort of jelly

[awritersbro]

oh that is gross

[stargazeraldroth]

Well, now I’m wondering how the Stars have toast, whenever they make some! Dream seems like the sort to put a hazelnut or chocolate spread on, to me… Hm.

I shouldn't get more toast. I shouldn't get more toast. I shouldn't get more toast.

You're absolutely right about that, Anon. I usually give Dream a sweet tooth anyway, so he enjoys ALL of the sweeter spreads: hazelnut, chocolate, marshmallow, honey... and, of course, the classic fruit spreads and cream cheese. Dream feels like the type of person to add fruit pieces or something to top his toast, maybe sprinkles or candy pieces of M&Ms or gummy bears if he's feeling generous to himself.

Blue's more a classic guy (no pun intended). He likes his toast rather simple, some butter or jelly/jam does the trick. Of course, he likes cream cheese on his toast too, but he saves that for the morning. Or he's having breakfast foods for dinner, then he'll have some cream cheese past morning. He also has a tendency to butter up his bread, maybe throw some cheese on there, and make it into garlic bread. I don't know if that counts, but garlic bread is so good that it deserves its own mention.

As for Ink, he's probably the one with the weirdest preferences (this is nothing new lmao). He enjoys spicy things, like... VERY spicy things. You know that black chip challenge? I forget what it's called, but the chip is known for being extremely hot. Anyway, the point is that he probably smears like... a chili paste or sauce on his toast. Oh, this actually reminds me- I wrote something where Ink made pizza toast, so there's that too.

Hanuta: Germany

“Hanuta, usually written as hanuta, is an abbreviation for Haselnusstafel, which are a delicious German sweet treat that’s not quite as filling as a cake. If the packaging looks vaguely familiar to you, that’s because this snack is made by the same company which makes the ever-popular Kinder Eggs. Enjoy the two wafers and the hazelnut-chunk-and-cocoa spread in between.” ---Casey, German & Writing tutor

Empanadas: Argentina and New Mexico

“Empanadas are a staple if you ever visit Argentina. Unlike the empanadas you can find here in New Mexico, Argentine empanadas have a meat filling. For the best dining experience, enjoy empanadas de carne (beef) and a glass of your favorite cold drink.” ---Ryan, Assistant Coordinator of Writing & Language

“For something closer to home, try the New Mexican variety of empanadas, which have sweeter crust and are filled with jelly. Enjoy empanadas de cereza (cherry) and a cup of warm coffee for the perfect breakfast or dessert.” ---Ryan Here’s a how to video to make these delicious treats.

Try them with a cup of hot green tea!” ---Motomi, Student Manager for Language Learning

Really good with tea and can be purchased at Istanbul Market in Albuquerque.” ---Svetlana, English as a Second Language and Russian tutor

Source 1, Source 2

“Umaibou and Pocky are cheap (usually costing less than a dollar), and can easily be bought from any nearby convenient store in Japan. Because of their packaging and simple shape, they are good to eat while studying. Umaibou are kind of like a giant Frito chip in the shape of a small cylinder, and would be a good choice for those who prefer savory. Pocky shares a similar stick shape, but would be better for those who prefer a sweet flavor to snack on.” ---Ari, Japanese tutor

This is a photograph of dates with honey which would have been a common presence at a dinner party as a precursor to the main part of the meal (sort of like an appetizer).” ---Nina, Latin and Greek tutor

Σταιτίτας/Staititas: Syracuse, Ancient Greece (attested in Athenaeus’ Deipnosophists)

Pizza al taglio: Rome, Italy

 “Despite there being packaged merendine ‘snacks’ along with other snack food in Italy depending on the regions, a very common one is that of the pizza al taglio (pizza by the slice, and literally ‘pizza by the cut’). This type of pizza was invented in Rome and is found most often in pizzerie in Rome and in a few other places around Italy. There are a wide variety of pizzas and they are baked in rectangular trays to then be cut at any size and sold by weight. You can choose to sit down and eat it, though it is common to have it wrapped so half of the pizza is sticking out, and eat it while walking. It is also different than the pizza tonda ‘round pizza’ which was originally invented in Naples, is found more in sit down restaurants and it is often thinner than the pizza al taglio.” ---Daisy, Italian & Writing tutor
