- SIRBERUS, on 10/10/2007, -3/+89You know that Pepperidge Farm bread, that stuff is fancy. That stuff is wrapped twice. You open it, and then still ain't open. That's why I don't buy it, I don't need another step between me and toast.
-Mitch Hedberg
Needless to say, I don't think Mitch would approve of this... another step between him and toast. - FalseProphecy, on 10/10/2007, -3/+66You guys realize that it's printing with heat, in turn toasting the bread.
It's printing on BREAD, not toast. - justdru, on 10/10/2007, -0/+41I just LOVE it when I'm able to make lots of money by clicking on their digg links. (rolls eyes)
- snapcase, on 10/10/2007, -2/+41This just in: Ebay now overrun with virgin mary toast.
- JeremyBanks, on 10/10/2007, -3/+42Kill the blogspam!
- Treshnell, on 10/10/2007, -0/+31Well is was going to happen sometime. Just look at the market for Virgin Mary Toast!
- oskay, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20No lasers involved here. ;)
By the way, that's my story and the blogspammers that submitted this-- stolen and posted to their spamblog-- should burn in hell.

What I *DO NOT GET* about digg is why the orginal article (submitted here 121 days ago!) did not get dugg, but this POS rip-off does. Hey digg-- WAKE UP!
http://digg.com/gadgets/A_Computer_Controlled_Toast_Printer - Jaakob, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20Turns out it prints on bread, and makes 'toasts' ;)
- DudleyInnocent, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17It looks like it just burns the text into the bread rather than lay ink down on it.
- redfox2600, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16This was stolen off of Evilmadscientist.com
Original source was http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php?story=cnctoast
He also printed a religious figure and put it on ebay http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php?story=fsmtoast - michelewithonel, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11yeah but as it burns it the bread becomes toast, and once part of it is toasted can't you consider the whole piece of bread toast? who decides what percentage of bread should be toasted before it can be considered toast?
- TheColonel, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11Great idea until you end up with goatse-toasts...
- JeremyBanks, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Great job clicking the link.
- oskay, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Actually, we printed FSM toast to sell on eBay:
http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/fsmtoast - dinostabOMG, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7I would print me up a bunch of virgin mary grilled cheeses sandwiches and make a killing on ebay.
- Riffraffs, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7it's actually a rapid prototyper not a printer. It's built to melt sugar into complex items, strangely enough it's called candy fab
http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/candyfab - SIRBERUS, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Mitch quotes are like jello... there is always room. =)
- Narwaffle, on 10/10/2007, -5/+8Do you remember a time when chocolate chip cookies came fresh from the oven? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4What we need is a more precise version of this that grabs the printed image from a special website, perhaps one where users get to vote on the new image/message. Every morning you get a piece of toast, but you don't know what will be printed on it until it's ready. :)
- Nossie, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I'm sure some scottish university has asked for a grant to find out the exact percentage for you sir! stay tuned
- se7en11, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5I actually had to turn off Adblock Plus to know what you were talking about. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
- arcooke, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Actually it's kind of cool.. the only "dumb" thing is the fact that he bought a domain name, installed a blog, and posted it to digg, just to let us see the toast we could have seen on 1000 other websites. And a ".name" address?
- UtahApocalyse, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Damn, My Jesus toast is worth nothing now.
- suprchunk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Drawing on bread man, drawing on bread - with heat, in essence making toast.
- NeMoD, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Your title was too complicated for the Digg user, you need something like "OMFG PRINTER ACTUALLY PRINTS ON TOAST!"
- masterskill, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4I'd buy that and the required toast just so I can hand in an essay written on delicious.
- uselessexpert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Now we know how the face of the virgin Mary got on the toast!
I KNEW IT! Those crazy christian psychos! :-) - actorboy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I remember, Narwaffle. I remember.
- sparkmonkeyz, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5I don't think that it can be considered a printer, it is just a low power laser engraver that someone is using to toast pictures on his bread. I guess I am going to take pics of me engraving my laptop in my CIM class, and calling it a laptop printer. /sarcasm
- Treshnell, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3It's all about marketing, man. We could read about 'a computer controlled toast printer....' or 'THE STRANGEST PRINTER IN THE WORLD.' I'll go with the strangest printer in the world every time.
- ethon, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3How dare you disrespect Mitch...
- addicted68098, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I would of loved to know about this before I spent 3mil on Virgin Marry and Elton Toast.
- tbr0, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2indeed. evil mad scientist rocks. :D
- ZigVicious, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2did it? if so, I would like to apologize on bahalf of the entire UK for letting that slip out.
- ArsenicTea, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3Too soon for you, Dudley?
- Bucketshred, on 10/10/2007, -4/+5Hmm i should try that with a soldering iron. Freaking drawing on toast man, drawing on toast.
- contradictator, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1All around the world, and coast to coast.
People always ask "what do you like most?"
I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to boast.
I always tell them "I like toast."
YEAH TOAST! - stklaw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You mean like this guy?
http://www.digg.com/offbeat_news/pic_This_Is_What_You_Can_Do_If_You_Have_No_Toaster_At_Home - suprchunk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1First off, that is a woman. Second off that is a woman. Third, learn to recognize a female from a male and don't go off of incorrect descriptions from stupid web sites.
- maisteri, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Why UK? Like Teletubbies didn't air outside the UK..
- Rezistik, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1damn you beat me to it
- will180, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1When I first read it I thought it said sphincter. I was disappointed.
- eurynome420, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1oh my god! god is on my toast!!!!!!!!!
- BruceBannon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1So maybe this is just me...but this guy shoulda kept the printer a secret, and made "jesus" toast, and sold it on ebay to evangelical wackos for big bucks. The way I see it, the less money they have to ruin our country the better. And you know how they love their jesus-toast. Of course "real" jesus-toast is made by accident, but who could prove that it wasn't...;-)
- supermanred, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1UH, that's just a laser cnc router that someone decided to burn toast with.
Now, if it were an actual toaster where you could "print" an image in the toast and hook it up by USB to your PC, that would be marketable. - homersaysdoh, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Do you have any idea how much money you could make off of Ebay burning images of the virgin Mary or Jesus with this thing?
- FrameShift, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Hahaha. I'll buy one and have it cranking out Virgin Marys for ebay in three hours.
- Cubedude04, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Great job understanding a joke moron
- Bull3t, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Oh right, so why would you want a big arse printer to make your toast in the morning. I just can’t imagine this large piece of equipment ever replacing the toaster in your home kitchen.
