I was SURE this would be about some new Android operating system. Times must be pretty hard for the HN community, given the level of interest in this post. Or

  From the wikipedia article: "Mouthfeel is the great attraction of the toast sandwich. Given the diversity of textures and flavours of all kinds of bread, many variations can be easily devised and tested in order to enrich the experience of the consumer." In other words, it's a sandwich made out of bread- that is, a "hack" of the sandwich. Totally at home on HN :)

  People just want anything that's not bitcoin or NSA.

    You're the product, not the consumer.

  I'm sure you've witnessed the glorious invention: Cinnamon Sugar[0]. [0]: http://www.spiceislands.com/Adjustable_Grinders/Cinnamon_Sugar_Adjustable_Grinder http://www.spiceislands.com/Adjustable_Grinders/Cinnamon_Sug...

    That sure is fancy, I just mix some ground cinnamon with some sugar and put it back in the cinnamon shaker. And yes it goes remarkably well on buttered toast, also diced apples and pancakes.

    Cinnamon butter is another godly invention.

  Next Android OS name should start with the letter "L", not "T". That's how you know ;)

    Toast notifications are those little gray popups available to developers in the Android OS

    Well, I'll be—you're absolutely right! How did I not notice this before? Cupcake (1.5) Donut (1.6) Eclair (2.0–2.1) Froyo (2.2–2.2.3) Gingerbread (2.3–2.3.7) Honeycomb (3.0–3.2.6) Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0–4.0.4) Jelly Bean (4.1–4.3) KitKat (4.4)

  Or a new API feature. The standard toast is too boring!

  > A memory from my childhood: Toast with butter and sugar sprinkled on top. For dessert... Weird. I thought this "delicacy" was exclusive to Russia (we didn't toast the bread, though).

    Greek here, totally had this (and was delicious). We didn't toast the bread either.
  • davidw 13y ago
    For another version, mix some cinnamon in with the sugar.
  • gcb0 13y ago
    S America. We used old bread, toasted on that tray under the oven when cooking something else.

    That also sounds a lot like the Australian 'delicacy' Fairy Bread - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_bread http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_bread

    Can confirm it also exists in Spain and England.
