Sometimes the best inventions are the simplest ones. Take, for example, the problem of burnt toast -- one which has ruined many a morning throughout time. The solution? A new glass toaster that actually lets you see your bread as it browns. The result? No more burnt bread. You can actually stop it when the toast gets to your preferred level of doneness.
Thankfully, a traditional timer dial is still incorporated for those of us who are too busy to keep an eye on our bread...like, say, M.C. Hammer. Zing!
But it's not all toasty: The current design only fits one piece of bread at a time, which, as experts know, is not even enough to make a sandwich.

This cracked me up, as someone who is very picky about the doneness of my toast/bagel/waffles.
