What is a bread roll if not all crust?
What is toasting, if not making the whole piece of bread more crust-like?

    The crust on sliced bread doesnt have the same flavour as a roll’s crust. Tbh the crust on white bread tastes burnt to me.

    I love bread crust. Good bread has a hard crust that may break a tooth. Soft white bread crust is a very different thing, but I don’t mind it.

    Wait is this a thing in humans over the age of 4? I’ve seen kids ask for the crust to be cut off but other than adults who eat the whole slice of pizza except the crust, I’ve never seen an adult who didn’t like bread crust.

      In the US there is literally something called an “uncrustable”. I suppose a lot Americans have the palate of a toddler.

    I love bread crusts from everything except mass produced bread like white bread. I love sourdough crusts more than the insides!

    Mass produced bread crust is just awful. I don’t cut it off but totally understand why so many people do.

    I prefer the heels for sandwiches tbh. It hold together better, doesn’t have holes that spreads leak through. Also, no one else in my house eats it so I’m guaranteed 2 slices XD

        What I can’t understand is that people like my partner will not eat their crust… But then order bread sticks. Pizza places roll the same dough to make the bread sticks as they use for the dough. Usually I won’t eat bread sticks unless they have something to dip them in… But I always eat her crusts. I swear places like dominos cheese bread has to be just a medium pizza with no sauce or toppings. So why not just order a medium pizza if you are going to dip the cheese bread in marinara?

      Pizza crust is pretty inconsistent on being emjoyable. Domino’s crust is ass. Godfather’s is fine because it is so narrow. We have a local place with hand tossed crust that is seasoned and basically like having a side of garlic breadsticks.

      Would a dipping sauce change your mind at all? They stop being the worst part of pizza and start being luxury breadsticks.

    I love bread crust, but I can understand why people might not like them. It occupies a middle ground between “bread” and toast. It has some earthy flavor (that I like in toasted bread), but it is also softer than toast (which I can appreciate).

    Thus, I think it might be the “worst of both worlds” for some people: too soft, tasting off, etc.

    I love them all though: pizza crust, bread crust, toasted bread, toasted pizza crust, toasted bread crust.

    The same reason you like eating caramelised onions, but not onion skins.
