Powdered Toast Man

Powdered Toast Man is a fictional spokesperson for "Powdered Toast", a product featured on the cartoon The Ren and Stimpy Show. Additionally, he is a superhero of sorts, possessing traditional superpowers (such as flight) and some decidedly non-traditional ones (flatulence, the ability to scrape toast shavings from his head). Powdered Toast Man appeared in various Powdered Toast commercials within The Ren and Stimpy Show, and starred in one episode of the show. His catch phrase/call to action is the shouting of his name, with significant stress on the "man."

Powdered Toast

The product named after Powdered Toast Man (or vice versa) is true to its name - toast in powder form. Why anyone would want to eat powdered toast is unknown - after eating some, one character notes how it "tastes like sawdust". Further throwing doubt as to its appeal, toast is usually served warm, but powdered toast is room temperature.

Powdered Toast comes in a can with an aerated top, allowing the toast to be "sprinkled" out. Amazingly, the powder somehow comes together, forming a piece of toast that can be consumed. Perhaps itself a commentary on the obsession of American culture with quickly prepared pre-made foods, it seems to take less time to "make" a piece of cold, sawdust-tasting Powdered Toast than it would to toast a piece of bread.

Powdered toast is never seen being consumed with butter, jam, or cream cheese, possibly because the fragile nature of the toast could not support such spreads.
