It’s just what you’ve always wanted: a piece of toast with your face on it.
A Vermont-based toaster company has unveiled “Selfie Toasters,” toasters which imprint customers’ faces onto toast.
“Yes, you don’t have to be famous or Jesus to have your face on toast,” said Galen Dively, president of Burnt Impressions, the novelty toaster company in Vermont.
You do have to be willing to spend $75, though, for the chance to eat a burnt outline of your face.
Selfie toasters can be purchased on the company’s website. To order, customers first upload a high-quality picture of their face. Then, they choose from one of five toaster color options. Toasters are white with color accents and come with a full color decal of the customer’s picture on the front. Then, the company creates the customized toaster using its very own CNC Plasma cutter. Manufacturing and shipping take about a week.
The company promises to give customers a refund if “we squint and can’t see your face,” adding that “we are good, but remember fine detail is darn near impossible to achieve with heat and toast.”
Dively said in a press release that interest in the product has been high, another sure sign that in today’s selfie culture, humility is, well, toast.
