26.Stovetop toaster

Heated up by flame instead of electricity, a stovetop toaster makes for great breakfast accompaniments.

There were a couple versions of stovetop toasters. One looks like a small waffle maker with a handle that you hold over the stove to heat up. The other kind was a four-sided tower, almost like a bug zapper, that you would stick bread to the side of to toast.
