Butter & Sugar, oh my!

I've been having some Proustian madeleine moments recently, mostly over forgotten breakfast foods. I've written here earlier about eating fried egg and bread sandwiches, but I recently was reminded of a forgotten treat when I came across a posting on Chowhound about eating butter and sugar as a kid. I remembered that I used to love toast, spread with butter and sugar as a kid myself. I hadn't thought about that in decades. It's nothing I'd want to eat now, but I ate a lot of it as a child, and I had completely forgotten about it, until this posting caused me to recall it.
