I used to make it like french toast. Soak the bread in an egg, cinnamon, sugar and milk mix and then shallow fry it ~ mmmmmmmmm I might have to make some over the holidays

Last night I fancied a snack and I ummed and arrhed for a bit before finally deciding I wanted cinnamon toast. I hadn't had it for years and years. I mentioned in to dh who looked at me as if I was mad.
I did a quick google and found this
http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/database/cinnamontoast_67577.shtml
which was how I remembered it and dh (bless him) cooked it for me.
He loved it, but had never heard of it before. He said it was because I was 'posh'. I said he didn't know about it because he was too 'posh' to have had it.
So did anyone else have cinnamon toast as a kid? is it a posh snack? or it just a regional snack. I grew up in Shropshire and he in Manchester or am I as mad as dh likes to make out!!

Never had it growing up in the south side of glasgow. First time I had it was at a backpackers cafe in Sydney!CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

I used to have it as a teenager, but it was from a recipe book, not something my mum made me. I don't think it's particularly posh, but it is peculiarly English and recipes go back as far as 1666.0

Don't know if it's posh, but we used to have cinnamon butter of Sally Lunn buns (like large scones, but more bread-y) at the Sally Lunn tea house in Bath when we went to Bath Christmas shopping. Reminds me of being small, and tired from shopping.0

Dont think I've ever had it. It does sound vaguely familiar though so I must have at least heard of it before. Will follow your link now as it sounds intriguing.SIMPLE SIMON - Met a pie man going to the fair. Said Simple Simon to the pie man, "What have you got there?" Said the pie man unto Simon, "Pies, you simpleton!"0
