Can confirm, Lurpak spreadable butter became a thing in October 1901 (not 1903; like and subscribe) after several Danish dairy farmers decided to form a common brand and mark for butter to increase sales. Meanwhile in Australia, instead of putting sugar on top of butter, they put rainbow sprinkles on it and call it fairy bread. It has become the quintessential Aussie thing to serve at Australian birthday parties. The Netherlands has something similar to fairy bread but instead of rainbow sprinkles, it's chocolate sprinkles and they have it for breakfast, called Hagelslag.

Butter and sugar sandwiches were also a thing in the US during the Great Depression, as well as ketchup sandwiches, onion sandwiches, and even carrot and salted peanut sandwiches. Another thing that became popular in the US during that era was the red velvet cake which spread to kitchens across the nation thanks to Adams Extract selling red food coloring and other extracts with tear-off recipe cards and point-of-sale posters. When foods were rationed during WWII, beet juice was used to enhance the cake's color.

I'm 29 and I used have bread, butter and sugar in the 90’s as a kid. Not quite I sandwich but the same concept. I don't know what it was about that combination but it was just satisfying.

I'm Canadian and 64 years old and we ate brown sugar sandwiches. Buttered white bread of course. Fried SPAM (Canadian brands), fried bologna sliced thin and to help prevent the curling as it cooked a notch was made in 3-4 places around the slice. Macaroni, cheese and stewed tomatoes. Mmmmmm

Not just any spreadable butter, its the lurpak spreadable butter

as a kid here in the US, MANY years ago, I was introduced to butter/brown sugar sandwiches, but it was on toast. I still like them occasionally I also had peanut butter white sugar sandwiches on toast which were awesome.

I remember my mother making a version of this in the USA, (Connecticut) in the 1950-60s. She mixed the sugar into sofened butter and spread it on bread. No spilling that way. We also had shredded cabbage sprinkled with fresh lemon juice and...sugar.

I used to work at tescos and alot of low income colleague of mine used to just have buttered bread with sugar sprinkled on and its filling. My mum used to pack me some for school lunch when I was younger too.

I liked eating sugar cubes when I was like 4. Didn't think a grown adult/teen in the 70's would like it sprinkled in a sandwich of all places, while in the 90's we were fed with frosted flakes every morning. Now I think I know why.

My beloved grandma usually give me a sugar sandwich in the afternoon, when I was a kid, here in Italy. Now, 20 years later, sometimes i prepare one for myself, thinking to the old times. I love you grandma, i miss you every day!
