I have a good sense of humor about myself and antipate a lot of eye rolling:

If you are going to toast, toast lightly - the lighter, the better, due to acrylamides.
My favorite toast was made in a cast iron frying pan. Then I learned about acrylamides via fried or toasted carbs, like potatoes, bread, cereals/crackers/cookies - depending how they are made/cooked.
So I started using a toaster oven and keep the temp under 250 for a light golden color.

Dr. Alan Greene was researching this at least 10 years sgo. Here's a more recent article: (sorry for the link to Dr. Oz, but the artilce is written by Dr. Greene)

If you are just interested in toast, buy a new toaster. It is easier to clean and use and less of a fire risk.

If you do get a toaster oven, don't cook shrimp in it like I did.
