After seeing the VHS Toaster  (below), I realized that I’ve come across a lot of interesting toasters over the past few years. So I searched through the archives and assembled this all-star list of toaster innovations.  Some of them are actual products for sale, and others are just concepts.  Regardless, enjoy this awesome display of creativity and not being satisfied with the norms of design.

The Scanner  Toaster

This puppy hooks into our computer and can print just about anything on your toast.  To be famous, use this to print Jesus on your burnt toast but don’t tell the press about your fancy toaster.
