I'm Toast, You're Toast, We're All Toast.

Toast. What a breakfast/snack/lunch/snack/dinner/snack food that is so taken for granted. Toast tries hard, to get hard for you. We all expect everything to be wonderful with our toasters. But everything isn't all Fairy Tales and Whistles...when it comes to toasters. It isn't all happy endings for this very underrated household appliance. The toaster can sometimes be a nightmare. OOOooooOOO. 

Okay, so I've been looking at toasters online because I want one for college, what's the big deal? But with all of these good looking and appetizing pictures (come on, I like slightly burnt bread), comes a price...to uhh buy it...but also part of you is lost and never found again when you make the transaction. Some of the reviews I've been reading save face. "WORST TOASTER EVER!" "This toaster is a hazard to society." "This toaster makes it a chore to toast." "This toaster, murdered and burnt my bread." So many reviews, so little toasters to choose from. Or so little reviews and so... 

Well, you may think that this is crazy, taking all this time (4 hours logged) looking for a toaster. As one reviewer has said "How exciting can a toaster be? Could it be better? Sure, it could play music while toasting. A toaster is a toaster." I couldn't disagree, or agree more. Because when you have to choose one that fits yourself idealy, specifically- wide slots for bagels, even spread toasting, quick, aesthetic nature, crumb removal tray, auto shut off, among many other features- it is tough to find the perfect fit. Speaking of fit, I conversed with a lovely married couple about their toasting situation. They told me one of the worst things I could have heard. Regular slices of bread, don't even FIT inside the dual loading slots. The top actually sticks out, while the rest of the bread is toasting. What a horror story. I couldn't stand to see such a wonderful couple, be a victim of a size oriented crime against humankind. Oh the terrible, terrible toaster has treated the two to tremendous tragedy. Alliteration. The wonderful wife, did mention to bring in a sizable object (cardboard cutout) in order to wane the possibility of being in the same STICKY situation. Why, I have even seen toasters, that don't even toast...they should be called warmers, they just make your bread warm. Tough. After all of this, I plan to make a decision within the next 24 hours. I will let you know how it turns out. But for now, I propose a toast, to toast. Click!
