"I have peanut butter and jam/marmalade on my toast so definitely not! It would be a corruption of flavours"

DaftAda @ada_daft

"This is rotten, imagine all the soggy crumbs at the bottom of the mug"

Lucy Kendrew @lucyalexandra

"Absolutely not. Dunking anything other than a digestive in a hot drink is for the decadent French."

Porcus Maximus @Railpig

"When I was about 8."

Ron Welch @Ronniegooner58

Philistine! This is not acceptable behaviour. That said, my eldest daughter has dunked her toast since she was a toddler, she's now 40.

Duncan Maxwell @DuncanMaxwell1

I can do without a butter slick in my tea thanks, I really wouldn't like my moustache greasy

W-B-G-3 @WBG31

What kind of depravity is that? I can’t unsee that.

Who, in the name of all that’s Holy, dunks toast??
