OK, the Bundy’s take the toaster, shake out the crumbs, and pour milk in. They call it “Toaster ???n’s”

Toaster Shakins

and ‘tangwipe’ a piece of bread rolled around the inside of a empty jar of Tang

I did a google search.

[“Toaster Leavins”](http://www.google.com/search?q=%22toaster+leavins%22&hq=&hl=en&lr=&safe=off) gets 6 hits.

[“Toaster Shakins”](http://www.google.com/search?q=%22toaster+shakins%22&hq=&hl=en&lr=&safe=off) gets 0 hits.

[Toaster Shak_e_ns](http://www.google.com/search?q=%22toaster+shakens%22&hq=&hl=en&lr=&safe=off) gets 1 hit.

From this wealth of information, only one of these pages seems to even reference Married with Children, with this beautiful and touching quote:

> [@](#):

> ONE TIME ON MARRIED WITH CHILDREN, AL WAS TALKING ABOUT TOASTER LEAVINS. ME AND JUSTIN ALWAYS SAY THAT WE GET THE BAG LEAVINS, OR THE TRAY LEAVINS. SO LAST SUNDAY, THESE OLD PEOPLE WERE SITTING IN OUR SEAT, SO WE GOT ALL PISSED OFF, AND HAD TO SIT SOMEWHERE ELSE, THEN THEY LEFT AND WE TOOK OUR OWN SEATS. THEN THERE WERE SOME CRUMBS AT JUSTIN’S PLACE AND HE WIPED THEM OFF, AND I SAID, “HUH,HUH, OLD GUY LEAVINS.”

::sigh:: The research I do for you people…

So with that overwhelming authority, I proclaim it to be “toaster leavins,” which is what I thought it was in the first place anyway. 🙂
