toast post

The obvious topic options for my first post in over a month would logically include my (excellent) Christmas vacation or my (lack of a) New Years resolution, but tonight I've something else on my mind.

I don't like toast.

"Who doesn't like toast?!"

Me.

Seriously, though, does anyone? Really? I mean, like it? Choose it? Eat it? Apparently so, or they wouldn't give it to you with every breakfast. "Would you like white or wheat toast?" Neither. How did this happen? Can't you see I'm eating pancakes?

Toast alongside eggs or an omelet makes a little more sense- "part of this complete breakfast" and all- but what interest have I in eating "bread that has been browned by exposure to dry heat?"

I'm not against all forms of toast. Do I enjoy french toast? Absolutely. Cinnamon toast? Sure. A toasted sandwich? By all means. But toast? Plain toast? Toast?
