Do you eat the heels?

[Tuesday Afternoon]

[Inchworm]

1. Nope - they are warriors

protecting the good bread within.

:hi:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

2. and when there is nothing left to protect. what then?

feed the birds :shrug:

:hi:

[Inchworm]

4. Well that top warrior saw a lot of action

and gets a sling outside. I may or may not send the last warrior with it. Depends on the last hotdog count :D

[Rambis]

3. When we are down to that

I flip them put extra PB and Jam and the kids have not complained yet.

[Rosie1223]

5. I use them for bread crumbs

a couple of buzzes in the food processor, voila!

:hi:

[Pryderi]

6. Yes, but peanut butter on stillettos makes it hard for

my wife to walk in. :P

[unpossibles]

7. oh yeah! The crust has so much flavor, especially with good bread

or maybe I just really like butts.... :D

[auntAgonist]

8. Yes!!! My favourite part of the loaf especially if

the loaf is homemade!

kesha :hug: :loveya: :hi:

[Swede]

9. Yes,I do.

That's how my mom raised me.

[Broken_Hero]

10. For the most part,

but a good portion of the time the bottom heel is barly a 1/3 a slice of bread, and I usually end up tossing it.

[progressoid]

11. Absolutely.

[arcadian]

12. Yeah, can't let that bread go to waste.

Think of howmany loaves that would add up to over a life time.

[LeftinOH]

13. I'm flabbergasted that there are adults who throw the heels in the trash

-people actually do this?

[LynneSin]

14. I toss them in the backyard for the birds

:D

[arbusto_baboso]

15. Sure. Bread is bread.

Just hafta use a little extra mayo to combat the dryness of the subsequent sammich.

[Wapsie B]

16. I love the canoost!

If it's homemade bread that's the first thing I go for.

[caitxrawks]

17. when i make homemade bread--yes!

I haven't eaten storebought bread in weeks. It tastes like plastic now.

[Arctic Dave]

19. Loooove the heels. Toasted with butter and raspberry jam.

[Xipe Totec]

20. My special treat

The best part of the loaf.

Reserved for me alone.

[hippywife]

21. Sometimes.

Mostly I save them to use in the bottom of my cookie keeper under a paper towel and then put my fresh baked cookies on top of that. It keeps the cookies from getting hard. :hi:

[Inspired]

22. Toasted with peanut butter. Mmm...good!

[sammytko]

23. my favorite part! nt

[MiddleFingerMom]

24. Oh, YES!!!

.
They make great single-slice one-handed PB&J "tacos".
.

[elleng]

25. Always did!

When I was a kid, rye heels had paper 'label.' THANKS FOR THE MEMORY!!!

[MilesColtrane]

26. Absolutely

[soleiri]

27. no

:blush:

But after reading all the glowing testimonials in favor of heel eating, I'm feeling kind of ashamed of myself.

Next time, I swear, I'll eat the heel!

[Iggo]

28. No, but my dad does.

If he didn't I'm pretty sure I'd chuck 'em.

[bif]

29. You mean the rockers? Sure.

Why let them go to waste?

[tonekat]

30. Yes, and I never cut off the crusts on the rest of it either

I never could understand that practice.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

31. Good emergency burger or dog buns.

If no emergency use pops up in a few days, they get ripped into little bits and tossed in the driveway. Let the squirrels and birds fight.

:hi:

[Gormy Cuss]

32. We used to fight for them when I was a kid.

I still fight the SO for them. Best part of the whole loaf.

[Raffi Ella]

33. Yes, love them!

I wish I could buy whole loafs of nothing but.

[carlyhippy]

34. I feed them to the birds outside unless they are the last 2 pieces and I am making a sammich

[Paper Roses]

35. On a good loaf of real Italian or French bread, It is where I head first.

I don't care one way or the other about regular bread. I'll use the heel but only because I don't like to waste.

[Mojambo]

36. Only if it's quality bread. n/t

[One_Life_To_Give]

37. Only if I get to them first

Wife won't eat them. But used to be whichever of us kids or mom got to it first.

[edbermac]

38. I eat the heels, I eat the potato skins.

:9

[ashling]

39. Yes, of course

I also eat the tails of fried shrimp and trout
