bread and scrape
Bread: Bread is a staple food that is typically baked from a dough made of flour, water, yeast, and other ingredients. It is usually leavened, meaning that it rises and becomes fluffy and airy due to the action of yeast or other leavening agents. Bread can come in various forms, including loaves, rolls, buns, baguettes, or flatbreads, and can be made from different types of grains or cereals. Scrape: Scrape, as a verb, generally refers to the act of dragging or pulling an object with some force against a surface in order to remove or dislodge something from it, or to smooth or clean the surface. This can involve using a scraping tool or the edge of a sharp object, such as a knife or spatula, to physically remove or lift off material. As a noun, a scrape can refer to a shallow cut or abrasion on the skin or the sound or motion produced by scraping.

bread and scrape
Bread-and-Scrape is an alternative term for "Bread-and-Dripping"; far from involving rationed and expensive butter, thinly spread or not, it is bread (sometimes toast) spread with saved, leftover, more readily available (and, many would say, tastier) fatty dripping and jelly from cooked meats.
'I have food, such as it is,' replied Jack readily; and he offered him the dry bread and scrape that his stepmother had given him. (Edmund Dulac's Fairy Book, 1916).
