From the wikipedia article:
"Mouthfeel is the great attraction of the toast sandwich. Given the diversity of textures and flavours of all kinds of bread, many variations can be easily devised and tested in order to enrich the experience of the consumer."
In other words, it's a sandwich made out of bread- that is, a "hack" of the sandwich. Totally at home on HN :)

People just want anything that's not bitcoin or NSA.
Or they're just hungry?
You're the product, not the consumer.

Weird. I thought this "delicacy" was exclusive to Russia (we didn't toast the bread, though).
Greek here, totally had this (and was delicious). We didn't toast the bread either.
That also sounds a lot like the Australian 'delicacy' Fairy Bread - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_bread
For another version, mix some cinnamon in with the sugar.
Can confirm it also exists in Spain and England.
S America. We used old bread, toasted on that tray under the oven when cooking something else.

“Toast sandwich profitable”
Or a new API feature. The standard toast is too boring!

I'm sure you've witnessed the glorious invention: Cinnamon Sugar[0].

That sure is fancy, I just mix some ground cinnamon with some sugar and put it back in the cinnamon shaker. And yes it goes remarkably well on buttered toast, also diced apples and pancakes.
Times must be pretty hard for the HN community, given the level of interest in this post.
Or is this a manifestation of engineers' need to optimise, maximum calories for minimum cost? Reading the article and comments, it seems unreasonably palatable...
