It's the little things, really...

You know how no one really eats the crusts of a loaf of bread? I sure don’t. And just today, 3 days before my 26th birthday, I’ve realized that instead of lifting up the crust piece to get to proper slices everytime I go to eat bread, I could simply just throw away the crust when I open a new loaf. Never considered than an option before. Changes everything.

I never throw away the front-butt either. I’m perfectly fine throwing away both butts at the end, but I think I’d feel wasteful tossing the front-butt right when I open the bag. It’s really just denial: for the majority of the loaf, I can safely think, “I’m not wasting the butts. I might eat them.”

    I always think of the crust as a ‘slice-saver’ keeps the next slice down from going stale to quickly.

    I remember having this epiphany. It makes you feel very intelligent. Until you realise how obvious it is.
  18. jessta reblogged this from nelix and added:
    I’ve always kept the front crust because I figure it offers some protection to the slice sitting behind it

    I make cheese toasties out of the ends… it’s awesome.
