My mother-in-law got upset the other day when her toast was cut in half and the slices put in a toast rack with the crust facing up. She says it has to be put in so the cut side is uppermost allowing the heat to escape so preventing the toast from becoming soggy. Now I'm no spring chicken but that's the first time I've ever heard that one! Is she right?
perhaps you should stear her to the "Toast Leaners Club" on this website where she can learn to balance them correctly without the need for a toast rack!!!!!??

I thought that you only got "toast sweat" when you put hot toast onto a plate because the water could not evaporate from both sides of the piece of toast?
I remember reading (not so long ago) about chefs and celebs viewpoint on how they prevent their toast going soggy. One said they take it from the toaster and 'clap' it between their hands. Another said they tossed it in the air. Another one put it straight into the toast rack so it could dry out. Another said they put it in a warm oven..........
There was so many - It was quite amusing reading !!
