The means shown and described in the specifications to activate the covers can be modified and/or varied using different means. A year of evaluating and testing a working model of a toaster using the disclosed design proved it to be economically alnd practically superior over other means being considered. Its means of operation prevented damaging of food which, for any reason, protruded out of the toaster's receptacles. The normal operation of the toaster is not affected. The covers do not interfere with the pop up of the toaster. The versatility of the covers' design permits it to be utilized to cover the receptacles to keep the toast warm after toasting without the use of electrical energy, and to cover the receptacles when the toaster is not being used. Better tasting toast is produced as the result of convection toasting effected by the covering of the receptacles.
