But I hate beans
Mrs. Bridge's Pantry cannot be used as a valid reference because a. it's in Connecticut and b. they serve crumpets with jam and clotted cream. That's blasphemy! Crumpets are to be eaten with butter and butter only! :P

Beans on toast is The dietary staple and spaghetti on toast is a variant. Most people will say, 'cor I really fancy beans on toast', not spaghetti. Even though it's the sauce that makes the meal worth it, which can be acquired from either baked beans or canned spaghetti.
Also, you can't really make beans on toast over here. The bread is too small so there are too many beans! Though I did make some the other week, after procuring a rare can of English baked-beany goodness.
