Why are Android popup messages called toasts?
My guess it that the lightweight notifications in Android are called <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html">Toast</a> because they popup like toast from a toaster.  Can anyone confirm this or provide a better explanation?  I am teaching a course on Android development and would like to edit the wiki, so I want to be sure to get it right.
