There is a 50 percent chance that it will land on either side, so just hope that it doesn't land on the buttered side!
There is, hwever, an "observation bias." This means that we observe the more important outcome (topping side down so that it dirties th rug or floor and picks up a load of pet hair) to be more important and remember it more vividly. As a consequence, we remember these outcomes as being the most frequent outcomes when we cast our minds back over all the dropped toast incidents in our lives and conclude tat the toast always lands topping side down. This is the same effect as bingo players experience when they remember that they always win when they bring their lucky charm.

If superstitions were true then what would happen if you tied a piece of buttered toast to a cats back and dropped it?
This isn't really a superstition. It is said that a cat always lands with his feet on the ground (not true, by the way), and it is said that when you drop a piece of buttered toast it always lands butter side down (not true either). So if you tied a piece of buttered toast butter side up to a cat, the cat would of course spin all the way down. It's a joke, not a superstition.
Why does toast fall butter side down?
When toast falls, it tends to rotate in the air. Due to the weight distribution of the bread and the height from which it falls, it is more likely for the buttered side to end up facing down. This phenomenon is a result of a combination of physics factors, including gravity and angular momentum.

What would happen if you strapped a buttered piece of toast to a cat will the cat keep revolving in mid air because it wants to land on its feet and the toast wants to land butter side down?
The cat will land on its feet. Logically speaking, the toast is already anchored to the cat, and so it has no need or desire to land anyplace. It is a blessing that this keeps the cat from eternal mid-air revolutions no matter what side of the toast is facing the cat. If the buttered side is cat-side, then the toast's experience is that it has already fallen and has landed properly. Many of the laws of physics have this beautiful kind of symmetry. The "flip-side" is that if this symmetry were not present in the laws of buttered-toast physics, then we would have an infinite source of energy in the form of revolving cats. JonnyD Here:the cat and toast would spin creating a vaccuum in space sucking everything up and putting the earth in a void in space crating a black hole which would then take us off the map of the universe and all the other planets would laugh at us because they already knew what would happen.
