This reminds me of the question: Why does toast taste better than a regular slice of bread?

it wasn't really rhetorical, i wouldn't be surprised if someone mentioned a study or some other reasons why it is so appealing.
as for toast, i don't toast fresh bread, but the toaster does have a magical way of improving older or stale bread. but like reverb, too much toasting and you have a bad taste in one of your orifices.
