Is This A Chicken & Egg Thing Or Is There An Answer?

So which do you burn - bread or toast?

You put the bread in the toaster and it comes out burned - so you burned the bread, right?

But before it burned, it had become toast, so did you in fact burn the toast?

Or is it not toast until it has finished cooking, which would mean you burn the bread?

I dunno :crazy:

Too much time on your hands!

I do worry about you, Ramone.

You burnt the toast, blame the mrs, who will blame the toaster, and you bought the toaster, so its your fault. :smiley:

You worry about me? Its alright for you - I have to live with me! :smiley:

you burn bread to get toast so if you leave it in longer you burn the toast

:smiley:

do some Sangaku, better excercise for the brain than toast thing… (note - Sangaku, not Sudoku)

relavent point: why is there a setting on toasters to make them blacker than a very black thing?

Almost Pan …

You toast bread to get toast … you burn toast and get burned toast.

In the same way that you roast beef to get roast beef … you burn roast beef and you end up with shoe leather

Interesting question…if very stupid, because does it matter?

Just as stupid/interesting. If we can advance digital technology so fast, why can’t we build a toaster that works properly, every time.

I have this stupidly expensive state of the art job and it’s still just luck whether it’s under done or burned, just like the cheapo Morphy Richards thing me and Mrs O got as wedding present 30 something years ago.
