I think it has more to do with wanting the bread warm in any way … so that you can melt butter on top of it. Nothing like fresh baked bread and melting butter over it. The next best thing is to take cold bread, toast it and melt butter over it.
I grew up poor and I remember being a kid and craving melted butter on warm toast but we seldom had any … so we often opted to using just lard instead. Same sensation but the taste wasn’t as good.

Nonsense!
Hey! … I’m OK! … Me and my arthritic body, I’m OK!
I hope you’re aware of The Heart Attack Grill. Amazing fries cooked in lard. All you can eat fry bar. The burgers are pretty good too.
When I went they stopped at a quadruple burger. This thing is insane.

I am, but unfortunately they don’t seem to exist on my side of the Atlantic 🤷
Fly out to California for a “business conference,” and stop at the one in Vegas :)
I’ll be sure to bring all my important business papers
I was expecting Vincent not Lebowski
I’ll do you one better… toast the bread, add the butter, then when that’s all melted into place, sprinkle cinnamon over it. Fucking amazing.
Probably, as the original toasters only did one side, and that was intentional.
