Tired of using your phone to post selfies? Use a toaster instead
Camera phone selfies are so five minutes ago. It's no longer enough just to take a picture of yourself. Now you can eat an image of your own face with the help of a selfie toaster.
latimes.comA company based in Vermont is making toasters that allows you to burn your image into your toast, allowing to eat your own image
A Vermont-based company called Burnt Impressions is making customizable toasters that burn an image into your toast. It's the same company that created the Jesus toaster and the Rapture toaster with images of Jesus and bodies floating up toward the sky.

For just RM240, a selfie toaster can be yours and all you need to do is send over a high resolution picture of yourself to the company
Starting with a digital photo of you, which you upload on the Vermont Toaster site, Dively puts the image in Photoshop and gets to work. He told Mashable that a typical photo needs roughly 15 to 30 minutes of work.

Your photo will then be scanned onto a template before being sanded down so that your image will be toasted evenly
Your finished image will then be placed into a toaster on both sides
The finished plates are put in custom-designed toasters (made in China), that feature special rails to support each plate. The toaster makes two slices and each slice gets one selfie face. Dively told me that toasting both sides with the image could, depending on the design, result in toast that's significantly under-toasted on one side.
