Three years on and Japan's specialization in extreme attention to detail and perfection has produced the <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-05-16/this-japanese-toaster-costs-270-it-only-makes-one-slice-at-a-time">Mitsubishi TO-ST1-T bread oven</a>, an even more ludicrous single-slice toaster. If you're outside of Japan, you'll also need a transformer to supply 100V at 930W to make it work. I'll let you know how it goes.</p> <p class="bimg"><a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-05-16/this-japanese-toaster-costs-270-it-only-makes-one-slice-at-a-time"><img src="/images/blog/1400x-1.jpg" width="600" height="426" /></a></p> 2019-10-17T20:44:54Z Cal Henderson (http://www.iamcal.com/) http://www.iamcal.com/2015-06/katering/ <p>In a similar vein to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Drunk_Kitchen">my drunk kitchen</a>, the <a href="http://thekateringshow.com/">katering show</a> is worth watching.
