#1 Never heard of Welsh Rabbit?

Michael Quinion writes: "Welsh rabbit is basically cheese on toast (the word is not 'rarebit' by the way, that's the result of false etymology; 'rabbit' is here being used in the same way as 'turtle' in 'mock-turtle soup', which has never been near a turtle, or 'duck' in 'Bombay duck', which was actually a dried fish called bummalo)" - wiki

#7 It's called 'Welsh rarebit' - the 'rabbit' is a degeneration of 'rarebit'.
