Think of Safety When Using an Electric Toaster
"Electric toasters have come a long way since they first became common in the 1920's but they still can be unsafe if improperly used."
Before the invention of the electric toaster, the most popular way of toasting your bread was with a toasting fork. You would slice bread, place a slice on the fork, and in front of the open fire till it was toasted on each side to your liking.
Then came the invention of the "Toast Plate". This was a plate that you could fit over your stove top to toast bread over your gas or wood burning stove.
The first successfully electric toaster was introduced in 1909 by General Electric.
The automatic pop up toaster was first patented in the 1920's.
Now, today's theme is safety.
This is because the common kitchen toaster is responsible for about 700 deaths world wide each year.
About 300 of those deaths are just in the U.S. alone.
If your food ever becomes stuck, never try to get it out with a fork.
duh
Never use foil in a toaster.
Never submerge it in water.
I can only guess you might do this in the event that it catches fire and you panic.
So be sure to read your instruction manual.
The one that you keep in a safe place as is suggested in our last post.
So be careful with your toasters.
Don't start any fires.
Don't stick your fingers in there.
Unless your planning on overthrowing the patriarchy somehow with one.
