I’m fascinated by the existence of so many foods. Who decided to boil tree sap for 3 weeks to make maple syrup? Who agitated cows milk vigorously for 20 minutes to discover butter? Who saw cheese for the first time and decided to still eat moldy milk? I thank those nameless humans for their service to society.

I learned the other day that British have a delicacy called the *toast sandwich* which consists of a slice of toasted white bread between two slices of untoasted white bread with optional butter in between.

Has anyone tried cooking it again? Projections show an incredible increase in flavor! . . Update: my house burned down

In Germany we call bland white bread "toast bread" because it can only taste good when toasted.

Answer: people said the crust was the best part of the bread. How can we get crust on more of the bread? Slice the bread and bake it again.

You know the best part about this, you can put so much on toast. SOOOO much. Butter, syrups, jams, nut butters, or even just go plain and dunk it in something tasty (Hot Tomato soup in a mug, to dunk your lightly buttered toast is amazing). you know the best part above all else, you can toast nearly anywhere in 2026. There is USB powered toasters, as DC buck-converters easily take USB-PD and warm up some coils!

I'd be interested to know if toast came before the end of the frequent consumption of stale bread. Many of our recipes are based around using and eating stale bread, and in modern times require you to toast bread as most don't keep bread that has gone stale. If you think of things like French Onion Soup, that traditionally used stale bread, not toasted bread. So I wonder if toasting was a way to compensate for not having stale bread, or if folks were in fact toasting bread long before the norms changed.

In Italian we have both "biscotto" (double-cooked) for cookie and "ricotta" (re-cooked) which has no translation, both are also done cooking something twice
