A loaf of crusts

Marianne72

I was enjoying a marmalade sandwich made from two crusts. I was thinking, some hate crusts while others love them. What about persuading manufacturers to make loaves comprising crusts only with other loaves 'inners' only? Would it be possible to make such a loaf? Perhaps I should email James May.

  • I eat the crusts as well, seems daft to waste them.

    From a logistical perspective since the loaf is sliced by machine and bagged, separating out the two ends adds extra steps. The crustless loaf is smaller unless made up with additional slices to make the weight, which would be hassle.

    You get 2 crusts but 12+ slices. So you need multiple loaves to make one crust only loaf. It is possible but the machine is more complicated and costly. So you would pay a premium for the crusts, which may be unattractive.

    I don't see why the would dry out. They are in a sealed plastic bag. Store in the fridge and bread lasts for ages.
