If you didn't expect a machine that has very hot elements very close to your food to make such food burn if used wrongly, that's on you.

I agree, but I feel like having the toaster itself catch fire could have been mitigated somehow.

Then you get to play the “asbestos flakes or salt?” game. Fun for the whole family!

That said, eating asbestos flakes isn't the most dangerous thing. Plastic partially burning close to your food, but too slowly for you to notice seems way worse... And there are many fire retardants that are safer to handle in a factory but that will give you a really bad time if you eat them.

Fire "removedants?" You mean fire removedants? How about artardents? I suppose one could argue that the automatic censorship of your word is a form of dysfunctional regulation.

Does ML censors parts of words now?
