Our 37th slice of toast - Smoked salmon and cream cheese

Today, we continued to make use of our Philadelphia cream cheese, now accompanying it with a super match - smoked salmon. Not only does this taste good but is also very good for you. It does tend to lean towards the higher prices, but seems to be permanently half price in every supermarket I ever visit. Perhaps no one buys it otherwise? This could be a classic supermarket shop floor tactic.

Well we both enjoyed it. This topping does run a fairly low risk of the chin slap dangle, or CSD, discussed previously in the BLT blog post, but this is fairly easy to avoid should the appropriate caution be implemented (biting properly).

The only real down side to this is the smell. Grace caught smelly-salmon-hands, or SSH, from merely holding the sealed packaging in the shop. This was then exacerbated when opened and touched to place strategically on the toast. I went for a ruffled effect whilst Grace laid hers quite flat. We did wash our hands after, but this only lessened the SSH. The breath is also a problem should you, like us, wear a face mask shortly afterwards. A mint is recommended, though this also eliminates the delicious flavour quite welcomely left in your mouth. The choice is yours.
