I call it one thing DH (who was brought up 400miles away) calls it another and DD19 calls it something totally different(wrong!).
Please help me prove noone else calls it what she does!

Crusts.
I always thought heel referred to the end bits of cheese.

Me: Crust (English)
DH: End piece (Scottish)

It would help if you told us what she calls it.

The butt 🤣 forgive me, I'm Australian.
Used in a sentence "piss off, I'm not eating the butt".

Heels.

The crust is the outside of the entire loaf. Each slice has crusts but only the two end pieces are heels.

BeMellowAquaSquid · 24/02/2026 20:16

I call it the nobby but all of DH family call it the knocker

The crust (South Yorkshire if that makes a difference).

Same here 👋

Crust for us too

Crust, or ‘the best bit’. I’d like a whole loaf of these slices!

heel or knuckle end

AgentPidge · 24/02/2026 20:23

The heel (SE). The crust is the top bit.

This is what I always say too!

But I call it "the end"

dicdicnurse · 24/02/2026 20:25

Crust in our house. And the next slice in is ‘the buffer’ never eaten but used as an extra layer of freshness Smile
