February 27 - National Toast Day

Happy National Toast Day! Would you believe that today honors the humble slice on the last Thursday in February?  

  

But toast is so very versatile. It carries a multitude of jams, jellies, marmalades and fruit compotes. We don’t stop there. Toast transports proteins and veggies, sprouts and soaks up sauces and drippings. 

  

Perhaps we have overlooked the necessity of toast, and it shall have its due. We’re able to toast it to a variety of shades pleasing everyone.  

Whether we lightly toast it or char it to a dark crisp, it serves as a perfect medium for building breakfast or sandwiches. It accepts seasoning quite well, too. Add butter, gee, avocado or honey. It doesn’t matter your preference. Cinnamon and sugar? Well, it might depend on your mood. 

Or perhaps the bread you have on hand. Is it cinnamon raisin bread or whole wheat? Do you only have two ends left? Some think those are the best kinds of toast. Others well, you can’t teach everyone the best kinds of toast making. 

HOW TO OBSERVE 

Raise a toast to your toast.  Be it burnt to a crisp or golden brown, honor your toast. Use #NationalToastDay to share on social media. 

HISTORY 

National Toast Day was started in 2014 by The Tiptree World Bread Awards to celebrate toast and all the breads we make it with. While the organization is in the United Kingdom, the day has also found a following in the United States. 

How do you like your toast?
