It's long been known that even overheating, let alone burning, some foods can lead to the formation of compounds associated with cancer - but what about toast?
With burnt toast, the biggest danger is the formation of acrylamide, a compound that's been linked to cancer and nerve damage in animals.
While some studies suggest that the risk of ovarian and uterine cancer doubles in women who eat this compound in food, other studies have found nothing.
