Lol, Christina. I see your reasoning.
Ever had raisin bread, Christina? Sometimes butter is used on that
and then it's toasted.
Do you believe in the "lemon thing", Christina? Much more current data
is available on that as a help to reduction of acidic ash.
You're a funny lady!
Take care.

Sugar is activating and not recommended before sleep if you're having trouble with sleep. Though, to be realistic, a few raisons on a piece of bread aren't exactly going to add up to much sugar, so I doubt it would have much of an impact either way. Whatever works, though.
