The key to understanding this joke is knowing that "toast" can
have two meanings. A toast can be something you say to someone
else, usually with a drink in your hand, to congratulate them or
honor them. A common toast in English is "Cheers!"Toast is also a
type of cooked bread that you eat for breakfast or with a
sandwich
