Does anybody else call the end of the bread

[PreseaCombatir]

A knobbler? Or heard it ever be called this?
I said it the other day and had my whole team looking blankly at me....
I/my family can’t be the only people in the world who use this term?
Most people just said they called it the crust? I have heard one person call it a ‘knobby’ before, but to be fair it’s never really a word that comes up often in conversation is it?

I'm from London and it's always been a Topper.

I'm in north Yorkshire and my dad always called it the boat end, not sure why, so I always have too!

The crust. I'm in London.

My DP calls it the knobble. I use the correct word - crust

I call it the crust or the outsider

'The heel'

The heel

Aha, one other knobbler!

I may start merging all these, and start calling it the ‘heely knob crust’

Never heard it but I like it! Where are you from, OP? Maybe it's regional?

I grew up in the SE of England and the East Midlands and say the heel or the crust. I agree with RedForShort about the latter that the definite article does away with any possible ambiguity.

Am I the only Lidder?

Crust. My granny used to call the side ends of a tomato the nobber / knobber though.

maddie mine too! It must be a greenock thing 😁😂

The ender

Crust in the South

My mum always called it a topper, she’s from the east end.

DM from East end of London calls it the knobbler. Haven't thought about that for years!

I didn't realise there were any other words for it than the crusts.

You're all wrong.
Sorry.

Crust, West London now Cardiff. Still crust.

Outsider

Endy bit growing up, but we just call them crusts now.

mrsdean sorry you are wrong it is the outsider and not crust, crust is the end bits of a slice!

Haha we’ve always referred to it as the fat bread in our house. We all refuse to eat it for some reason. Deep down I know it tastes like the rest of the loaf but it just doesn’t look right

We’re from east London too! It’s definitely a regional thing.

I like things like this, makes me wonder where these terms originated from.

It’s always been my favourite bit.! I wait until the end (delayed gratification!) of the loaf, there’s always the two knobblers left, because no one else wants it, and I make a sandwich and savour it! Haha
