I enjoy the heels (what I’ve called the ends of the loafs) because the crust helps with the structure of the sandwich. The fillings are less likely to break through the crust and spill out compared to the open pocket structure of the insides of the loaf.
Ok, hot take, you can’t judge the bread as a slice by itself. It’s the context around the slice that matters. For example, dry foods can be good when paired with non dry foods. But on their own, I’m not a fan of dry foods. I can see the end of the loaf being good when paired with the right filling. But in the context of a slice of buttered toast, I don’t really want the end of the loaf.
Now that’s a spicy take

For sure. Texture is definitely important in context.
