Comment on Introducing Toast 1

I really wanted this to be a hardware startup - the Juicero of toast.

Sadly its another software company.

I definately got "Unauthorised bread" [1] vibes from the name when I first saw the thread.

Selling you a subscription for slices of toast in individual cartridges for their toasting hardware?

I'm pretty confident we could steal The Though Emporium's Single use thermite based instant hot dog [1] design and make instant packaged toast, fresh to order

Each morning you get an envelope with a slice of toast in your mailbox.

"The perfect slice, every time. No muss no fuss."

Seems to me if it doesn't also apply uniform melted butter it would be a hard sell.

"the perfect slice, every time" is a solved problem: https://youtu.be/1OfxlSG6q5Y?si=xXZJalyPrQggC1xo

butter application is still unsolved AFAIK, though I'm sure there's a robotics company out there hard at work on it.

Best thing since sliced bread.
