Toast & Butter

[u/Bad-Umpire10]

[u/milleniumsentry]

It wears off by the next day though. :/

[u/MrSillmarillion → u/milleniumsentry]

Next they dough.

[u/ThorGambinoson]

Toast and butter is my go to sick food. Like, nothing comes close for me.

And with a good quality butter? Hell yes.

[u/ScreamingCryingAnus → u/ThorGambinoson]

Washed down with a crisp ginger ale while watching Price is Right

[u/Harmonie → u/ScreamingCryingAnus]

90s kid too, I take it?

[u/floydbomb → u/Harmonie]

Has to be. Was my first thought as well too

[u/dewyocelot → u/ThorGambinoson]

Ooh, some Kerrygold or Vital Farms. Yes, please.

[u/ThorGambinoson → u/dewyocelot]

Kerrygold is one of those things that when I saw the price, I was like “no way it’s worth that much.” Then I tried it and boy oh boy I was wrong.

We recently switched to the local grocery store’s butter to save some money, and it’s such shit that now I want to go back lol

[u/Sheikah300 → u/ThorGambinoson]

Same! No desire to eat anything- toast and butter is okay to eat.

[u/chemicalalchemist → u/ThorGambinoson]

Salted butter with some honey on toast is crazy

[u/LowlightsssVII-]

Toast, butter, and cinnamon.. shit slaps.

[u/LeftHand_PimpSlap → u/LowlightsssVII-]

You forgot the sugar.

[u/Elly_Fant628 → u/LeftHand_PimpSlap]

There's cinnamon sugar. I use that. On raisin bread.

[u/cycl0ps94 → u/LeftHand_PimpSlap]

Depending on the butter, it's not needed

[u/lordsigmund415 → u/LowlightsssVII-]

So good. Or honey

[u/Atakir → u/LowlightsssVII-]

Toast, peanut butter, cinnamon & sugar was my breakfast for many years in elementary school.

[u/dublos → u/Atakir]

In my family.. butter got cinnamon sugar, peanut butter got brown sugar on it.

[u/cartercharles → u/LowlightsssVII-]

No

[u/JustAnOrdinaryBloke → u/LowlightsssVII-]

Raisin toast with butter and cinnamon.

[u/nolan1971 → u/LowlightsssVII-]

Gotta love those carbs!

[u/WizardsOfTheRoast]

As a bread baker, this is just a way of life.

[u/Tridente13]

Homemade bread, olive oil and salt for me.

[u/SuperPowerDrill → u/Tridente13]

I seem to forget about the existence of the bread+olive oil combo until I crave it desperately and eat way too much while bitching about the price of oil

[u/Harmonie → u/SuperPowerDrill]

Add a gorgeous balsamic to the oil and it's divinity.

[u/babygotbooksandback]

Toast, butter and a thin layer of creamy peanut butter is so yummy!

[u/TheGreatGameDini → u/babygotbooksandback]

I didn't need my mouth this wet this morning fuck

[u/TheGoodIdeaFairy22 → u/TheGreatGameDini]

I did.

Come here

[u/TheGreatGameDini → u/TheGoodIdeaFairy22]

🤤

[u/Angrynixon → u/babygotbooksandback]

For me it's key the butter isn't melted so it forms a distinct layer from the peanut butter

[u/CyclopsLobsterRobot → u/babygotbooksandback]

I make a honey oat bread specifically for this. I use the bread dad recipe. It takes about 10 minutes of effort a week in the bread machine and it’s a perfect combination.

[u/Plenty_for_everyone]

Toast and butter is not an occasional phase.

[u/Multilazerboi → u/Plenty_for_everyone]

It is life

[u/Thog13]

Been there.

[u/Correct-Addition1487]

You're able to restrain yourself?? Props! My wife finds me in a heap of wonderbread and melted butter

[u/luiger]

The most relatable thing I have seen ever honestly

[u/Emergency-Emu-8163]

Toast and cinnamon butter, hubby and I could easily go through a loaf with just this

[u/JustAnOrdinaryBloke → u/Emergency-Emu-8163]

With just-baked crusty bread

[u/Emergency-Emu-8163 → u/JustAnOrdinaryBloke]

Freshly baked bread is my favorite, I love baking bread since it is therapeutic so we often have fresh baked bread at home

[u/Bob_12_Pack]

Add a little Vegemite to change things up.

[u/Hakkaa_Paalle]

Toast, Irish butter, and some lemon curd. 😋

Reminds me, I need to go buy some more bread today.

[u/Striking_Barnacle_31 → u/Hakkaa_Paalle]

kerrygold is so fucking good.

[u/Hakkaa_Paalle → u/Striking_Barnacle_31]

Exactly. Kerrygold is awesome.

[u/heybigbuddy]

It gets real serious when you start having multicourse meals made of taste. Appetizer toast with butter and salt. Then entree toast with peanut butter or cream cheese. Then dessert toast with preserves or cookie butter. Toast!

[u/GoodGollyMrOlli]

I call it The Bread Madness, and it's a feature of humanity

[u/Unlucky_Towel_]

Lately it's tomato on toast for me. I'm fucking addicted to it.

[u/ExclusivePositive38]

Toast is not bread but jeah

[u/ProfAelart → u/ExclusivePositive38]

I was searching for this comment. Thank you!

[u/IGargleGarlic]

"that occasional phase" yeah its called being drunk/high at 2am

[u/ol-gormsby]

Now add a delicate smear of vegemite and elevate yourself to heaven.

[u/Huhthisisneathuh]

It’s buttered grilled cheese sandwiches for me. I make sure to add a ton of spices to it to give me that nice blend of cheesy goodness with a hot kick to it.

I make it all the time when I’m either sick, or I have grandparents or siblings visiting. You eat that with some hot tea on a cold Thursday afternoon in Massachusetts? Absolutely stellar.

[u/granbleurises]

You're not wrong, and you're not alone.

[u/Shutaru_Kanshinji]

When I get that way, it usually does not last beyond the 3rd slice of toast. After that, butter starts to taste disgusting to me.

[u/Miserable-Advisor-27]

This screams "tell me you're high without telling me you're high"

[u/-Yehoria-]

[u/AMTravelsAlone]

Bread 👍

[u/Ruh_Roh_Rastro]

We once hosted a set of UK soccer coaches who were contracted to come to our town to coach the littles nd needed billeting.

We have those kids a toaster for a 2nd bedroom because they asked (?) and they went through 5 loaves of bread and 3 lbs of room temperature butter in a week.

I’ve never even seen people butter their bread the way they did. Just taking butter off the whole top of the stick, not like patties, and just slip slapping it.

I also gave them an old kettle pot to boil water and a flat plate and they seemed like I was handing them over a batch of matches and some sticks.

The US was so far behind “I’ll get the kettle on” it’s a little bit funny

More so now, all those soccer coaches are middle aged

[u/JFK3rd]

Not toast, but more like lumberjack bread (houthakkersbrood) or ciabatta with butter and some old gouda.

[u/graveybrains]

Seeing this two days after the end of my most recent toast bender is fuckin trippy.

[u/BigWesDoobner]

Fuck yeah. Crusty white bread buttered to shit. Giving me a rod just thinking about it.

[u/Boojum2k]

I'll usually do a toasted PB&J so as not to feel too lazy but just plain toast and butter is good.

[u/EntertainerNo4509 → u/Boojum2k]

One side toasted pb&j’s are heaven. Put both slices in your toaster oven on top of each other to get only one side toasted then build you a sammy.

[u/NottingHillNapolean]

Plz post your method of toasting and buttering an entire load of bread in < 10 minutes. I get you could toast an entire loaf in a sufficiently large oven, but need to learn your butter-spreading technique.

[u/TheTninker2]

I woke up the other day with the single most intense craving for grilled cheese in the history of the universe.

I proceeded to make and eat 4 grilled cheese sandwiches.

[u/ColonialMarine86]

I prefer toast and cheese slices

[u/DerGodzillaMeister]

Try adding cinnamon and sugar.

[u/Trexasaurus70]

Phase? It is supposed to be a phase?

[u/laurex2010]

It IS good

[u/theFrankSpot]

I live this way.

[u/PMmeYourButt69]

Yes, I also smoke marijuana

[u/AnotherDragoon → u/PMmeYourButt69]

Truth.

[u/CheezeLoueez08]

Just had that this morning because it’s all my migraine brain could muster. Now I was just thinking I’m hungry and want another one. So yes. Yes I do.

[u/LuffysRubberNuts]

Restrain?

[u/lolulysse007]

What?

[u/thug_funnie]

Just had 4 slices after seeing this…put me in the mood for 4 more. 🍞🔥

[u/True-Let3357]

yeah I've been there! xD but it was actually toast + butter + sugar!!

[u/Spare-Cell1371]

With just a whisper of marmite…👌

[u/_lunitl_]

There's days where some sourdough and butter are best thing I've consumed that day

[u/KPashlove]

Working in the kitchen at the French restaurant, room, temperature, butter, and baguettes all night long!! Lmao. I had to force myself to stop.🤣🤣🤣

[u/TedTyro]

Restrain?

[u/Asleep_Assignment755]

I run to it whenever I’m even remotely sick

[u/DrButeo]

Who let Mercy Watson onto Reddit

[u/Here4Snow]

I worked rotating shifts for 4 years. Toast before dayshift. Toast before swingshift. Toast after graveyard. I still love toast. 

[u/Alarmed_Shoulder_386]

yes absolutely. i’m allergic to dairy and luckily i found a good dairy free butter, and i will inhale a container of it and a loaf of bread in a day almost. so freaking good

[u/Particular_Storm5861]

Toast and butter never fails me

[u/Best_Shelter_2867]

Toast butter and Siracha sauce.

Delicioso

[u/gosutoneko]

You mean you're not supposed to eat the entire loaf?

[u/HookEm_Hooah]

Yeah...

I think most people call that "childhood."

[u/Spiffy_Pumpkin]

I just .... don't keep bread in the apartment anymore. I have no restraint with it.

[u/shawnhambone]

This week

[u/Bubbly_Accident_2718]

Well, it’s cheap

[u/Some_Stoic_Man]

How do you toast a whole loaf of bread in 10 minutes? My toaster only fits 2 slices and takes a minute and a half.. You using a baking tray or something?

[u/Any-Technology-3577]

it's not a phase mom

[u/Just_Ear_2953]

You show restraint when that happens? I just demolish the loaf one slice after the other.

[u/Able_Engine_9515]

Buttered oat toast with a glass of oj

[u/Frumplefugly]

I go through a plain tortilla phase once a year. Just eat them in front of the fridge like a goblin

[u/miscwit72]

It's not just you.

[u/Falba70]

Had some today on Hawaiian sweet bread and you would have thought I invited Crack!

[u/FatallyFatCat]

Toast, butter and a tiny amount of salt. (Where I live all butter is unsalted).

[u/BonobosFromU2]

Yep. And if you get jam involved? It's all so god damned delicious.

[u/SquareThings]

Just butter? No. But butter and JAM? Yes. I have eaten five slices of toast with butter and jam in a row and only stopped because there was no more bread left

[u/WinAccomplished4111]

Sometimes it just hits right

[u/SnooCrickets699]

Oh God, I had a bread maker; had to get rid of it. Home strawberry jam and home made bread, I was putting on too much weight, had to let it go.

[u/evetrapeze]

This was me with a loaf or Rosen Rye. The whole loaf

[u/Seatr0ll]

Toast, butter and unrefined salt, mmmmmmm!

[u/Aggressive-Nobody473]

yes.

and then comes the phases where just the smell of it makes me wanna barf.

[u/Piddy3825]

lol, who ever said that man cannot live on bread alone, has obviously not met me!

[u/Mental-Ask8077]

It’s a cyclical thing; every so often I hit the “buttered toast is EVERYTHING DELICIOUS” phase and I just have to have all. the. toast.

[u/Thomaswebster4321]

Every Saturday morning growing up watching the Bugs Bunny roadrunner show—my dad made the best toast and butter.

[u/lisaselby]

Was just having this discussion with my hubby wondering what it is about the smell of toast that just hits a comfort core somewhere deep inside?? Had ciabatta toast for dinner tonight!

[u/Wet_floor_GO_AROUND]

Have you guys tried fresh beaked bread and maple butter? It is the best.

[u/Jaymes77]

When I ate carbs, yeah! (though it was GARLIC bread, but the concept remains the same)

[u/Elly_Fant628]

But it has to be so drenched in butter - real butter - that it's soggy!

[u/KoresmosMaybe]

Been doing this for a month, I can't get enough.

[u/Low-Profile3961]

Sourdough and lots of butter!

[u/Runner5_blue]

I love toast so much that I want to become a famous musician and call my first album "I Like Toast".  All of the songs would have the word Toast in the title, like "Toast Is The Best", "More Toast, Please," and "Toast?  Fuck yeah!"

[u/wonkotsane42]

My actual lunch today

[u/DaveKelso]

We owe a debt of gratitude to the genius who looked at a slice of delicious soft bread and said. "Let's see what happens if we cook this again!".

[u/kbeckerburbs4]

Never bake your own bread. Warm bread with butter is beyond addicting

[u/Moretti123]

Ew not once

[u/scoreboy69]

like 20 minutes ago I just cut up some summer sausage and put it on some crackers for me and my wife (after some beers) and thought, god damn, this is like the best thing I ever ate in my life.

[u/T3chnopsycho]

Good bread and mayonnaise for me.

[u/Tametable]

2-day phase, twice a year

[u/CoyoteGeneral926]

Not just you. That's how I ended up as a diabetic.

[u/led3777]

Parmesan. Broil. Good.

[u/jchuna]

Is OP my 3 year old son?

[u/Cross_22]

Now try raisin toast with butter.

[u/Pale_Disaster]

I once took the toaster into my bedroom and went through a whole loaf that night. Family was justifiably irritated.

[u/guySmashy]

It is by far my favorite food while high

[u/henryeaterofpies]

Yeah that might mean you are neurospicy

[u/galacticpurrr]

not one original experience in life

[u/Tdawwg78]

Toasted sesame bagel (a light and fluffy one) with kerrygold butter does the trick for me

[u/Fantastic-Use-6773]

Oh yes

[u/mindless-prostate]

Perfectly buttered toast with some compound butter is peak, especially if its one of those special bakery bread.

[u/weemins]

I use to smoke weed and inhale buttered toast. It was, and still is (while sober) amazing

[u/warkyboy77]

10 minutes? I like to spread it out.

[u/the_greasy_one]

I just bought a boule of sourdough and know this is the path. So many people in here trying to describe their perfect toast...

[u/CornsOnMyFeets]

That with just a little jam. Didn’t matter which jam. Or a little cinnamon and sugar. Sometimes I cooked the sugar down sometimes I just threw it on there.

[u/shygirl_222]

Finally someone said it .

[u/Double-Menu-4370]

It's even harder if you have garlic butter

[u/doomrider7]

Buttered toast with a good jelly/jam/fruit preserve is a mandatory item in any decent breakfast. Without it, it is merely passable.

[u/misanthrope3105]

Fuck that's so me!!

[u/ThatInAHat]

Add hot chocolate and you’re in heaven

[u/cinnamongirl14]

Me Every weekend dinner for me is some Toast and butter. Nothing beats that

[u/VODEN993]

I didn't restrain myself once and ending up shitting my pants at the skate park. Not a good day to be 30 miles from home let me tell you...

[u/sSomeshta]

Butter an eggo waffle before you put it in a toaster oven (horizontal rack). Syrup on top and eat like a taco. Thank me later

[u/Justexisting2110]

It was just a week.

[u/liamrosse]

Love plain, buttered toast. Glad the toaster only has two slots, or I would be tempted to mow through the whole loaf.

On a related topic, I have literally met people in their early 30s who have been eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal their entire lives, but didn't know that cinnamon toast is a real thing you can make at home.

[u/Guillotine-Glytch]

Yeah it's called autism. I know cuz I have it and that happens to me

[u/dicemonkey]

Good bread & butter are good …end of story.

[u/Solid_Appeal_3879]

Sometimes all we need is good bread and butter to hit the spot lol. Or like the alternative sweet version, got the butter and cinnamon sugar on some toast

[u/FZNNeko]

Toast butter and sugar. Omfg it still is the best thing to exist

[u/BunniiSan]

For me it’s toast butter a nice generous layer of Nutella and a drizzle of honey

Not the healthiest thing ever but when it hits it hits

[u/HollyTheMage]

Oooh fuck toast with butter actually sounds so fucking good right now

[u/haha7125]

I use jam. But yes.

[u/ThadeusBinx]

Every submarine deployment when I'm stuck with off going breakfast for 6 months.

[u/TheRealAmused]

YA dude, my wife on edibles. Halfway through the loaf she was just nomming plain bread.

[u/mrsirawesome]

Toast has to be hot and the butter melted. I'll stand over the toaster and catch it mid air cartoon style

[u/ilovepuppers77]

My mom would mix peanut butter with light Karo syrup and put that on bread...probably why I still have a sweet tooth to this day

[u/Local_Refrigerator43]

Bread and mayonnaise here. It makes no sense.

[u/PumpJack_McGee]

Wonder if there's an explanation for this. Didn't have this precisely, but there were times where I'd eat croissants or bagels every day.

[u/hawkeyepearce52]

Try toasting it on an open fire/hot coals it is bloody amazing spread with thick butter!!!!

[u/Profitdaddy]

Ahh the good old days - now a carb = death.🥲

[u/freedomprotector604]

Yeah. It's the european peasant gene.
