I've heard these called heels and loaf ends, but also hoes (because everyone touches them but doesn't want to keep them, which was funny in the 90s when I was 12 but now I find just awful and mean).

What do you call them?

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

I call them the "dad bread", because Dad ends up eating them.

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 2 points 2 days ago

"The butt", as in "do you want the butt?"

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

We call them butt bread

In french, "le quignon". I have no idea where this word comes from, what it means, and if every French people use this word.

I don't like the "quignon" but my wife does. I think we complete each others.

I've lived in France for 20 years and never heard that word.

I'll check and see what my wife calls it...

Elle dit quignon.

Bon voilà, à 42 ans j'apprends le mot quignon. 30 ans que je parle français, 20 ans en France... Merci !

That felt oddly wholesome.

I'll translate for others:

she said quignon.

there we go, at 42yo I learned the word quignon. [After] speaking French for 30 years and living in France for 20 years... Thanks!

[–] pasdechance@jlai.lu 3 points 3 days ago

Didn't even realize I wrote that in French!

This story arc really rounded off the wholesomeness* of this post.

*it's definitely a valid word

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

In the UK (or at least my bit of the UK), we call them "crusts".

[–] icanbrewmushrooms@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Round my bit we call them 'heels', or 'end bits', but I've heard all manner of names over the years.
