Toast messenger by Sasha Tseng
July 21st, 2009
Eat your words! This toaster by Sasha Tseng incorporates a little message board where one can write quick notes. The message also gets “toasted” into the toast itself. Fun fun! See Sasha’s website of wonderful projects here.

Does the last line say “I’ll waiting for U?”
I have bad eyesight but that’s what it looks like.
Can’t really make out the top line though…

Just so everyone knows, this is NOT real. It is a concept - a good idea and a few pictures made in photoshop. You cannot buy this, and there are no real plans to ever make this product. It is a good idea but there are ZERO real models of it, not even a prototype. Its harder than it would seem to make it work apparently

Photoshopped. not that hard. just take the text layer you made on the gizmo and paste it on the bread.

It has 8 letters so its probably not ‘waiting.’

Do people not read? This is a concept made in photoshop. Calm down you idiots.
Wonderful picture and that would be a neat device to have, if not completely frivolous,

Okay - I WANT this for my birthday. Please send me one. Can you imagine if you had house guests that were on your nerves, a boyfriend that got stupid the night before, a chore that needed to be done….the possibilities are endless. Not too mention, that you could actually use it for compliments, birthday wishes at breakfast, apologies for the mean toast messages sent earlier….LOL Oh how I wish this was a real toy….make it for me, please!!!
Travis
September 9th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
Haha is that real…?
Assuming it is, that’s pretty cool though. Could make for a nice surprise or anniversary breakfast, something along those lines.

can u buy one and if so where can i get one and how much are they?
Philip L.
September 13th, 2009 at 3:01 am
Nah - it’s doesn’t say “I’ll waiting for you”. There’s a small v between the l’s so it’s really “I’m…..” though I have to say Gambo is right - it does have more letters. Maybe she’s referring to the garden they have and it’s, “I’m watering for you.” Yeah - that’s the ticket!

I think the other way around would be an easier way to achieve…
Just like with wax colouring, that what you write does *not* get burned…

There are early mornings whne this is about the only way I could bring myself to communicate with certain people over breakfast.

For the record the entire thing reads:

I operate a breakfast diner style restaurant and the temptation would be to write a comment to a rude or pushy customer something like “is your bacon extra crispy this time a-hole?” LOL

I definitely think it says “watering for you”. There are too many strokes for “waiting”.

To be fair it is a nice mockup but in terms of concept you do need an engineer. Because.
1. How is someone meant to open it and take it out if it is more then 100 degrees Celsius and not burn your fingers. A glove is going to be too thick to get it out as well. How to you fit in there the technology to print burn a message and keep the screen from melting from the heat.
Basically as it is, it does not really seem very realistic. But a nice thought.

awesome =)) i want this. =)
beyond obvious
September 20th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
of course its not real!how would you make that, do you ppl even think? what heats the bread is the heating coils (you know, the wavy wires inside toasters..), how would you burn the words into the toast? ok maybe you could twist the coils in particular design but not a message board that u continually change! don’t u use logic?

When I was a kid my mom used to make us toast with a heart imprint on it. She would have had a field day with this.

A Better, cheaper, more useful version: $20 SOLDERING GUN. Draw your design with the soldering gun on the bread. Then just toast the thing on low to keep the resolution crisp. Get thee to a Radio Shack!

ok - so where can I get one of these? though I do like the idea of a soldering gun - I could have several uses for that!

October 19th, 2009 at 10:29 am
Everyone here WANTS one… but the better comment is, HOW THE HELL IS THIS POSSIBLE? I really dont think this is possible. I mean, consider the fact that you write on the board with a dry erase marker! How does it transfer to heating coils?
