The toaster includes a sensor that detects if the bread contains DNA from the proprietary wheat that the toaster company has partnered with.

THAT or there is a series of tiny nanoprocessors embedded in the bread itself that are ~~mostly, surely~~ harmless to consume.

THAT or there is an RFID chip in the bread package that communicates with a receptor in the toaster to ensure that you have the ~~approved~~ optimum bread crafted especially for your toaster model. (Until they decide that the bread now has to be slightly changed in size and no longer fits in your toaster, thus necessitating you buying a new model)
