bread ends

I have nothing against bread ends.  There's nothing in the crust of bread that isn't in the inside.  It's all the same.  It's just that I consider the end at the top of the bag to be a barrier, a guardian to the freshness of the other pieces.  I know full well that the slightest bacteria on my hand and the very air cause the bread to deteriorate, but still I appreciate the bread caps sacrifice.  And by the time I get to the other end, the one down at the bottom...  well, it's time to buy fresh bread.

I know somewhere fields of rye and wheat and carroway are crying.  Tough cookies!
