In that interview I did with Joe Scholes I said that the first thing that somebody submitted was from Billy of Dave's Big Deluxe but I remember now that that's not true. The first person to submit anything was from April of Terror Cat Music who sent me lots of rare ska from Texas from the mid 90s. I put all of the links up at one time on the T&W Myspace but they are no longer available so I will be adding them one at a time to my future posts.
Here's Burnt Toast. I have no other info on them and was only able to find this logo of theirs but no cover or year or leads as to what else they may have recorded.

Burnt Toast was a ska band comprised of Rice University students. They were popular at on-campus parties and they recorded the one album that you obtained a copy of.
The title of the album, "...a burrito every 40 seconds," is a reference to the studio costs incurred when recording the album. Every 40 seconds in the studio cost the same as a burrito.
As the 2013 post indicates, they were Rice University students. They graduated while Ska was still rapidly ascending in popularity, but scattered to jobs and post-graduate endeavors instead of trying to catch Ska's rising wave and riding it as a band.
