Poll: Bread Crusts, the final frontier?!?

[STEbbq]

Because it is so hot, I have decided I must know the answer. What do y’all do with bread crusts?

[DaveD]

I voted to eat 'em, but it does depend on the type of bread. Some crusts are much harder to chew than others, and I've got dental work I need to go easy on, so I avoid such things...

[STEbbq]

Huh. I was expecting a less skewed response thus far. That is interesting.

What do you do Davek8282 and SonOfAButcher ?

[Davek8282]

STEbbq I let them dry out and make bread crumbs and/or use in a panade for meatloaf or meatballs.

[DaveD]

Struggling to find the connection between it being so hot and why you need to know this answer STEbbq...!

[STEbbq]

It is 112 in Chicago today Dave!

You calling my toilet paper poll silly?!?! 😳 Why you I oughtta…..😂😂

Good godamighty... thanking my lucky stars here in northern VA, a lovely 78F/25C with dew point of 60F/16C. We will have an unpleasant but brief excursion this weekend to the low 90sF with DP in the high 70s, but it will last just 2-3 days. By the weekend following we should be done with anything approaching muggy for the year. Wishing for relief for everyone!!

[SonOfAButcher]

My crusts are frozen and saved for either breadcrumbs...or I wet them and put them in meatloaf or meatballs....

I eat the crusts, but that "heel" thing? No. Bird food.

I’m not sure I fully understand the question. 🤦 I know the difference between the crust and crumb but I’ve never separated them for any reason. I’m speaking strictly about homemade bread where you can choose your bread style to deliver more of either, crust or crumb. If you’re speaking of store bought loaf bread, the only reason I would separate crust and crumb would be for croutons. Otherwise, it’s all good!

[STEbbq]

I now realize I should have perhaps said heel instead of crust…but hey man, I blame Panhead John . It is hot!

[J-Melt]

You are not kidding. My wife was extremely relieved that I did not bike to work today. Just walking to the CTA train was awful.

The heel makes the very best toast in the whole world.

[WayneT]

The crust is already toast. 😉🤣
