Do you cut the crusts off your sandwiches?

I have never been one to do this as it seems a waste of bread, but I did it today, thinking I would save a few calories by doing so. The only time I have had crustless sandwiches is at a reception or something where they were served, or I have eaten those Smucker's uncrustables too from the freezer case. Crusts or no crusts for your sandwiches?

I used to cut off the crusts for various grandkids, but they out grew it.

@snowy22315 When our grandson was with us (he was a premie), to encourage him to gain weight, I would cut his PBJ sandwiches in different shapes like his initials.

@snowy22315 I do think the crusts are tasty.

Smuckers uncrustables are so yummy but expensive. I hate crust but I hate wasting food so I do eat it but my son doesn't.

@snowy22315 I think they taste bad compared to the rest of the bread.

I cut off the crust when I prepare sandwiches, I dry the crust and I use to make breadcrumbs. Nothing is wasted, but the sandwiches are better.

Yes, you could also make croutons with the crusts. I do enjoy croutons on salads.

@snowy22315 I use another kind of bread to make croutons, but you can surely use the crust.

@snowy22315 Maybe only eat half of the sandwich and save the other half for another time. I do not cut the crusts off. I know some people like it better with them cut off.

I usually do not do this. crusts are ok for sandwiches. pizza crusts are the worst for me. :P They are too thick for thick or pan pizzas, but for sandwiches, the crust is good especially if you put more butter in them hehe.

@snowy22315 Sandwiches can be a part of an informal gathering I suppose.

We were always made to eat our crusts and I still do although sometimes I eat as little bread as possible from a sandwich to save calories.

When I have a sandwich I like to keep the crust. Not sure you are really saving THAT many calories by taking it off but who knows?

Homemade baked bread fresh from the oven. The crust is the best part!

I buy crustless bread once in a while. It is sold with no crust but it is more expensive. I only use it when I will have a cocktail party where I will prepare canapes. I make normal sandwiches with other kinds of bread.

I always tear the crust off my sandwiches. I don't like the crust and the only time I will eat it is when I toast it or make a grilled cheese sandwich.

My friend never eats pizza crusts..the back portion, which I think is a waste although it does save calories, however, he is not really overweight.
