In Hollywood's idea, we can have 4 slices of toast ready at 6:30 am for buttering. The problem is that I know I will stumble into the kitchen at 6:36 and my toast will already be cold. Therefore, I propose that not only does the toaster store the bread and toast the bread, but that it then deposits the toast in a compartment where hot air jets (think "blowdryer") will keep the toast all toasty until you appear to butter it.

sorry runf, but I think toast is one of those things that one cooks and then one eats. all hot and crisp and dripping in butter ; not warmed over and soggy. I suppose I've blown the job offer now!.

not at all, po ;-) are you really willing to be a USAian?

In the restaurant biz, we actually just keep the toast (most foods actually) under heat lamps until ready to serve.

As for the problem, I always seem to have to microwave my toast at home b/c I can't seem to wait for the toaster to do it's job...I find 10 other things to do in the meantime and come back to cold toast. I hate that. On the other hand, I've eaten more soggy toast than I care to admit.
