YOUR NEXT MISSION: NICE AND TOASTY It’s one of the trendiest foods around, so this week we propose a toast to ... toast! Your mission is to turn up the heat and show us your most favourite toasted foods of any kind. Do you like browned bread with butter or do you top your toast with something less traditional? From toasted nori and sesame seeds to bagels, bruschetta and BLTs to English muffins and marshmallows, your mission is complete as long as it’s toasted.
