Given that all the nutty complaints on here seem to be about Asda, I was hoping for a thread where OP had burnt their mouth while tucking into a cheese toastie in an Asda cafe.

Asda's entirely serious comments about "release the toaster" did make me chuckle though.

Surely at the very minimum OP should be compensated for the fact that their child could have suffered horrendous disfigurement caused by an ERUPTION of molten cheese forcing its way out of the defective machine.

Doesn't really matter whether they have kids or not, they could have.

Spillage in tasty toasties is unavoidable. Overfilled is a subjective statement.

Overfilled is not a subjective statement.

An overfilled sandwich maker is one where spillage over the sides occurs.

By your definition, "tasty toasties" is also a subjective statement.

Do we have a qualified electrician on this thread? They could approach Asda to get the toaster released, and publish pics of the excess cheese (have to hurry before it gets too whiffy) for the education and amusement of all.
They might even reclaim their fee by posting the item (once made safe) onto eBay. I reckon such a notorious toaster could reach a tenner or more.

How about a Dairylea Triangle ? Or a Laughing Cow ?

Its 2014, do people still have toasted sandwich these days? Surely it should be a croque-monsieur and you dont need a sandwich toaster for them. Plus if you're in the cafe business you can charge an extra £2 for a croque-monsieur over the common or garden toastie

Did you get your Toaster from Asda ? I hate to think how much cheese is dripping off that toast :eek:

And that plate is very close to the edge of that worktop too ! Another H & S hazard right there. Melting cheese and shards of crockery, it's a death trap.

There are several of us here on MSE, but none of us could give a toss!!
