BBC News - Toast tickles the tastebuds of childhood memory

Help

Researchers at Cardiff University say they have discovered why so many people like toast.

Their research suggested that toasting bread releases a chemical which helps evoke memories and the preference for toast was much stronger in people who had it for breakfast as a child.

The research, commissioned by the Flour Advisory Bureau, set out to discover what it was about toast which made it such an integral part of breakfast for many people.
