Do you eat the heels from a loaf of bread?

[knights68]

I enjoy eating the heels from the loaf of bread. My only complaint is that there isn't MORE!
They should make a loaf of bread with nothing but bread heels in 'em!

I use these as a good solid piece of bread for a good sandwich. Homemade burgers work best! But then again, PB sandwiches are rather awesome too. It's a very multi-useful piece of bread.
Stuffing, toast (french or normal), sandwich base, croutons, the list is friggin endless!

I know someone who only likes to eat the CRUST of the sandwich...

I too have mental expiration dates. For milk as a beverage, the expiration date occurs about 3 or 4 days after it's been opened. On cereal or for cooking I'll go for a week or just over.

As long as milk doesn't smell funky, I'm cool. Similarly, for bread, as long as it's not furry and/or green, I'm not worried.

Me too. The odor changes almost daily. After a week, it smells putrid to me, even though I know it's not.

Not to get to personal but, how are you smelling your milk?

If you're sniffing it while it's still in the carton/container then, you are more than likely smelling the "crust" that forms around the opening and it's going to smell funky. However, if you pour the milk into a cup/glass/bowl then smell, you're going to get the actual aroma.

I mean, seriously, are you gonna' attempt to gauge the bouquet of wine by sniffing the rim of the bottle's opening?

I never thought about that..great point.
By the way...one of my favorite requests that I will always turn down is "smell this milk". Hell no, if you need a second opinion, I ain't drinking it or smelling it. If you are trying to impress me with it's putridness..I trust you that it is that bad.

What happened to Jeff Foxworthy's famous "courtesy sniff"?

That's a great point. Over the years though I've honed a special skill. I can see stench. So all I have to do now is stare down a bottle of milk and I know, oh yes, I know.

Bread heels make good samiches at 2:00AM when there is nothing else in the house to eat. I also enjoy giving them to my kids when they complain if I don't cut the crust off their sandwiches
