Why I did it

New Yorker cartoons for the upperclass AND the masses.

I have a big carbon footprint when I make toast.

I don’t like white bread anymore. Only grainy or dark or bread of substance. I like bagels and English muffins  and crumpets to be grainy, too!

I also don’t like toasters. Too slow.

Or toaster ovens. (What is the point of them again? I think I’m going to toss mine.)

Microwave is fast, but where’s the slightly burnt/toasted edges?

That leaves my big stove. That’s right, I turn it all the way up to broil, put a piece of tin foil down and the bread, wait 30 sec, turn it over and put some butter on so it melts just right, and Bob’s your uncle!

Honey is optional, along with the guilt.


And I thought Buster Brown only made shoes! Buster Brown Bread through Flickr Creative Commons Photographs by Derek Farr (Detroit Derek). Thanks Derek!
