The line comes from Hotel Mario, the 1994 Philips CD-i game known for its awkward animated cutscenes. In the scene Mario offers the phrase as folksy advice, even though toasters toast bread, not toast. Clips from the game spread widely in the mid 2000s through YouTube Poop remixes and meme compilations, turning the cutscenes into a shorthand for badly written game dialogue. The toasters line survived on its own because its circular logic is easy to quote, remix and drop into unrelated videos.
