Who doesn’t love toast? I don’t want to hear it! It’s taking bread to another level. But sometimes bread doesn’t toast evenly! This Roastie Toaster is a concept design by Mateusz Glówka that not only has a lovely see through spherical body but also has rotating heating elements (those metal beams) that give your bread the even crispiness it deserves. I totally could’ve used the Roastie this morning when my toast was burnt on the bottom corners. [Mateusz Glówka via Laughing Squid]

Is stale bread just toast created at room temperature?
Is the transformation just related to temperature and colour or are there changes at the molecular level?
These are the serious questions researchers should be looking into!
