Fun Facts about Toast

Not to be confused with toasting your computer or toasting by the host to prove the drinks are not poisoned and subsequent deaths blamed on the gods.

Gone are the days when we invite our enemies to a party to kill them, thus the saying, "A toast to your health."

Toast Today

There are a vast number of toast lovers in the world, and with the Internet they have found a new medium. There is an immense network of toast-dedicated websites, including a toast bible, songs about toast, and all sorts of toast and toaster memorabilia. For example, visit Dr Toast for toast recipes, related links, and so on.

New interest has recently been aroused in a toast-related phenomenon involving Murphy's Law; it has been claimed throughout recent history that toast, when dropped, will always land buttered-side down. Most scientists call this idea nonsense, but some hang on to the belief. Science journalist, Robert Matthews has an interesting example of this.

The Future of Toast

Exciting new developments occur everyday involving the future of toast. Progress has been made in areas such as talking toasters that respond to voice commands regarding bread darkness. Some have even worked on a brilliant perpetual motion theory involving cats and buttered toast. Alright, maybe this last one wouldn't work, but you never know until you try. There is also word of a toaster that burns weather predictions into the side of your toast. It gets the predictions by means of an Internet connection.

Step outside and smell the roses. On a daily average you will inhale 1 liter of others anal gasses.

If toast always lands buttered side down, and a cat always lands on its feet...What happens if you butter your toast and strap it to a cat's back?
