Milk Toast?

A few of us here have at one time or another heard or uttered the derogatory phrase
"You milk toast, motherfucker!"

What is milk toast?

according to Mr. Breakfast.com

Milk Toast

(This recipe yields 2 servings)

• 4 slices of toast
• 4 pats of butter
• 1 tsp cinnamon and sugar
• 1/2 cup milk


Heat milk on low.

Butter toast as you usually would and sprinkle each piece with cinnamon and sugar. Tear the toast into bite-sized pieces and place in two cereal bowls.

Pour hot milk over toast pieces.


In the early 1900s, Milk Toast was popular fare for children and the ailing. It is still popular today among poor families and singles.

milk toast is the premise for "cinnamon toast crunch." i resent the stereotype that milk toast is relatively more common among single people. i can think of no grosser food item than milk toast but this may be because i am somewhat lactose intolerant. the thought of mixing milk, essentially cow sweat, with toast, a relatively benign food item, is just icky. if i were ailing, i would rather die than eat milk toast.
