What are Interactive Toasts?

Information on what they are can be found in this awesome blog post http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tiles_and_toasts/archive/2015/07/02/adaptive-and-interactive-toast-notifications-for-windows-10.aspx

Your code

var toast = new InteractiveToast();
var visual = new Visual();
visual.AddText(new Text("Spicy Heaven"));
visual.AddText(new Text("When do you plan to come in tomorrow?"));
visual.AddImage(new VisualImage("ms-appx:///Assets/Deadpool.png")
{
ImagePlacement = ImagePlacement.AppLogoOverride
});

toast.SetVisual(visual);

var input = new ToastInput("time", ToastInputType.Selection)
{
DefaultInput = "2"
};
input.AddSelection("1", "Breakfast");
input.AddSelection("2", "Lunch");
input.AddSelection("3", "Dinner");

toast.AddActionItem(input);

toast.AddActionItem(new ToastAction("Reserve", "reserve")
{
ActivationType = ActivationType.Foreground
});
toast.AddActionItem(new ToastAction("Call Restaurant", "call")
{
ActivationType = ActivationType.Foreground
});

var notification = toast.GetNotification();

ToastNotificationManager.CreateToastNotifier().Show(notification);

The Generated XML

    <toast>
      <visual>
        <binding template="ToastGeneric">
          <text>Spicy Heaven</text>
          <text>When do you plan to come in tomorrow?</text>
          <image placement="appLogoOverride" src="A.png" />
        </binding>
      </visual>
      <actions>
        <input id="time" type="selection" defaultInput="2" >
          <selection id="1" content="Breakfast" />
          <selection id="2" content="Lunch" />
          <selection id="3" content="Dinner" />
        </input>
        <action activationType="background" content="Reserve" arguments="reserve" />
        <action activationType="background" content="Call Restaurant" arguments="call" />
      </actions>
    </toast>
