Darth Vader Toasts Your Bread

Posted November 06, 2008 8:35 AM

From Newlaunches.com:

Even the Force won't be with you, if you don't kick-start your morning with a healthy meal. The best is toasting your two pieces of bread in this Star Wars Darth Vader avatar. Menacing and dark, it sure will be the kick you need in the morn, besides your caffeine fix. Eating Vader-esque toast sounds good to me, only if I could team it with apt orange squeezer to pulp the Sh** out of the enemy! The toaster sells for $55.

Toast and coffee for breakfast is a'going to kill you.

Best breakfast is rolled oats, soaked in cold water overnight, and cooked in the morning for a healthy breakfast which sustains for hours.

Kind Regards....

Yeah, but does it only do 1 slice at a time...who wants to wait for that.....hold it, does it toast the bread in like3.2 seconds? I need a toaster that does maybe 8 slices at once, and in 3.2 seconds.....any suggestions?

Hey, another new victi member !

Sorry mastrsmth, welcome . Sounds like you need a flame-thrower ! If you want to live dangerous, you could pre-soak the bread in petrol and use this, but it could be more then a little life-threatening ;

If you like, maybe I can talk to the Emperor and convince him to loan you the use of the Death Star to toast all the bread you want in a fraction of a millisecond.

Since it is called MYSUN, does that mean I can get a tan and toast at the same time?

Do you mean to tell me that there are other ways of making toast than using a toasting fork over an open fire?????

Is this what Chinese technology has achieved????
