Are we there yet?

I saw an advertising video on Facebook this afternoon for something called the Dash Toaster. Instead of two or four slots abreast, this one has one long opening, long enough to insert  two pieces of bread end to end. It also has a see-through glass front so you can watch your toast toast.

What was really more fascinating was the demonstration, not of toasting a piece of bread in the Dash but what they did to it afterwards.

First, butter is spread over the toast. Okay. Then some jam. That's fine.

Oh, wait -- now a few blackberries. Nice touch.

Well, hold on -- a couple strawberries are added now. That'll be great.

No, there's more.  Whipped cream on top, a very generous squirt thereof from the Reddi-Wip can. All right, that oughta do it.

Well, wait -- not done yet.  A sprinkling of slivered almonds.  Nice touch.

Oh -- and here comes a shower of powdered sugar. Done, thanks.

Oops, not so fast -- finally a drizzle of honey.

Seriously?
