So I just watched it again the other nite for kicks and its always made me wonder. Why does wooderson call his car “melba toast”? I’ve never been able to figure this out and thought maybe one of you braintrusts could shed some light on it for me ---

Melba toast is made by lightly toasting bread in the normal way. Once the outsides of the bread are slightly firm, it is removed from the toaster and then each slice is cut in half “longitudinally” with a bread knife to make two slices each half the thickness. These two thin slices are then toasted again to make Melba Toast. > **[Melba toast](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melba_toast)** > > Melba toast is a dry, crisp and thinly sliced toast, often served with soup and salad or topped with either melted cheese or pâté. It is named after Dame Nellie Melba, the stage name of Australian opera singer Helen Porter Mitchell. Its name is thought to date from 1897, when the singer was very ill and it became a staple of her diet. The toast was created for her by chef and fan Auguste Escoffier, who also created the Peach Melba dessert for her. The hotel proprietor César Ritz supposedly Melba... I think he’s refering to the SS stripes on the hood [http://www.dazed-and-confused.net/pics/melba.jpg](http://www.dazed-and-confused.net/pics/melba.jpg) ---

Melba toast is eaten with soup. Wooderson calls his Chevelle Melba Toast because it soaks up the competition. ---
