I have to say this is a very personal question.
But I'm confident about my toast making habits and can assure you that I've never forgotten a single one. Never leave a man behind, that's what I always say! And why not apply that to toast too? Well, exactly!
How could anyone leave a brave comrade out in no man's land, slowly cooling down to the point of inevitable inedibleness? Wounds leaking butter, moistening the crust until it collapses into a cold mushy mess, less a piece of toast than a horrifying tragedy. Oh the humanity! Oh the horrors of war! Show them mercy, our precious toast allies! For they cannot fight for themselves.
Mercy, I tell you! MERCY!! !!
