I had my parent's old one when I got my first apartment. Not sure why I got
rid of it, except that I didn't use it too often. Mainly I used it to make
toast. I was convinced it was the only way to actually get toast without
having burned toast. The reason I thought this was that my parents had a
ton of bad toasters. They said they got a lot of toasters as wedding gifts
and they all seemed to be the same model, most likely purchased at my
grandpa's store. At any rate, our toast always came out black and had to be
scraped unless it was made in the oven or toaster oven.

I would make occasional toasted cheese sandwiches. Or I would heat up
Saltines, sometimes with applesauce on them for faux apple pie. I can't
really think of anything else I used it for. Or would use it for now.
