There wasn't such a point in history known as "Year of Toast Invention". It looks like toast appear in the world as soon as people invented fire, bread and tryed to join them together a little bit longer, than it was needed. But, if you want a date, it happened nearly 6,000 years ago. The Egyptians found, that bread left out in the dry heat become almost inedible. So, first toast was invented as a way to preserve bread.

Later on, toasting become popular in Roman Empire.  Also, The word 'toast,' in fact, comes from the Latin word tostum, meaning scorch or burn. That was Romans, who brought toast to Britain and all through europe. And then colonist bring it to the Americas.
Today nearly 88% in the US have a toaster. Toast become really important part of breakfast.
