This quote is about today's subject which, in cased you have missed it, is toast. I've looked it up in the actual context it was taken from, but I still don't really understand what it means:

>“Toast was a pointless invention from the Dark Ages. Toast was an implement of torture that caused all those subjected to it to regurgitate in verbal form the sins and crimes of their past lives. Toast was a ritual item devoured by fetishists in the belief that it would enhance their kinetic and sexual powers. Toast cannot be explained by any rational means.
Toast is me.
I am toast.” 
― Margaret Atwood, Oryx and Crake

For those of a literary nature, the wider context can be found by following this next link which gives it together with a couple of extra paragraphs which precede it in the book:
