I was asked by someone recently "what is the difference between toast and sandwiches?"
Well in the West you usually get toast with butter and strawberry or blueberry jam; simple.
But I noticed about five months ago I walked by a place called Isaac Toast which sells slushes, ice cream, bagels, a few sandwiches, and 31 kinds of toast. Well, what can you get on toast? I asked this to my class and they replied: butter, strawberry jam, blueberry jam, kiwi, sweet potato, ham, bacon, turkey, chicken, several kinds of cheese, beef or steak, lettuce, cabbage, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, sweet cream (difference than butter), kimchee, pickles, onions, tomatoes, various sauces that are unique to Isaac Toast, eggs (and Koreans love eggs might I add), chocolate, or french fries.
Not to mention you could also get salt, pepper, various kinds of oils, green peppers, green onions, korean chili peppers, mango, carrots, strawberry, pineapple, banana, or apples on your toast.
No wonder they were having a hard time discerning toast from sandwiches.
Thanks to Carissa as well who introduced me to Indonesian style toast which has several layers of condensed milk and Dutch chocolate sprinkles. Oh my~
