We had 10 butter & jam, 5 Nutella and 5 butter & honey slices. | |
It was getting hard to walk across the floor without stepping on some fallen toast. | |
Brooke
moved throughout the site, checking for survivors.
This is where her medical training paid off. All of the Nutella slices landed Nutella-side down, and the same was true for the honey toast. Two of the jam-covered slices landed jam-side up. |
|
There were only 2 slices from the entire second loaf that landed right-side up. That is only a 5% survival rate for toast with butter AND another topping. The old saying was true!

You
might think that this has something to do with the butter side being
heavier, but according to Newton, it doesn't.
I found out later that similar
studies were done at Thiel University. |
|
When
we finished the experiment at 3am, all the local restaurants were closed,
so we dug into the toast that had landed jam-side-up.
I hate having leftover jam in the fridge. |

Always wear safety goggles while eating toast. | |
One
of the benefits of scientific study is the advent of new
products, and this time, I think we hit pay dirt.
We collected up the toast with the smallest amount of hair and lint & packaged it up. At last! Buttered toast without the pre-dawn hassle! |
