<p>A conveyorized return toaster for toasting food products has an inclined angled conveyor for conveying the food products from a lower point outside the toaster to a higher point in the toaster. The inclined angle is at a degree sufficient to cause the center of gravity of the food product to shift rearward from where it would be on a horizontal conveyor and allow the product to extend at a length further beyond the back end of the inclined converyor than if the conveyor were horizontally disposed. This increases the rotational moment of the food product over the back end of the conveyor and increases the subsequent food product exit force to propel the food product completely to the front opening of the toaster.</p>
