Eggs Up

I always have to give up the "nose" on baguette loaves to my wife

Lol Elliot thinks he invented petit pain

All geniuses are unappreciated in their time. The world isn't ready for breggs.

I was expecting “so... you made a roll?”

Given Clinton's reaction to soda bread, it wasn't very likely that he'd go for this. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3780

If you tested this with an actual guinea pig, would it mistake it for a pup?

Bolivians mastered the art of Bread Eggs/Quignons and called them "Marraquetas", and thanks to its crunchyness its delicious alongside coffee and cheese.

huh, more of jeph's autobio!

Uh...I really like the end pieces. Pls sign me up for baguEgg.

Your wife made you add the disclaimer, didn’t she? Because basically half of France (your truly included) would be offended if you hadn’t. Quignons here are Serious Business.

I agree with Elliot.

Wait 'till you hit a bakery here in Germany. Your mind will be blown away by the abundance of different types of bread rolls. :D

eliot invented the bread roll

WANT. My spouse hates crust and I love it. When we get served bread at restaurants, we cut it in half and tear out the middle. They eat the middle, I eat the crusts.

FYI, the end of a baguette, or a whole day-old baguette is a deadly weapon. I have cut myself on baguette crust, and I have a friend who straight up broke a tooth biting into a baguette.

Baguettes that are jut the end pieces do exist: https://crushmag-online.com/recipe/pain-depi/ It's called *baguette épi* or *pain épi* (cob baguette/bread)

If loads of butter was injected in the bread egg, like a donut, this could be revolutionary

I like the end pieces of bread, especially if it's fresh with plenty of butter.

Never have I been so offended by something I completely agree with.

Isn't that basically just a roll?

People who like the end pieces *are* weird. To be clear: I think this is a good thing. People who aren't weird tend to be the worst. Thank you for being weird for us, Jeph. (Confession: I like the end pieces. My ex dislikes the end pieces, so that worked well. She's weird in other ways, however, so it's not like she's normal.)

huh, the strip number is four fours

I have indelible memories of picking up a still-warm baguette from the bakery on my walk home from work, tearing off the end, and happily eating it as I walked down the street

Reminds me of those weird pans that allow you to make brownies with only crusts

I was expecting Elliott to bring out a bready Moravian star

In Germany, there are 217 different words for the end piece of a bread, therefore you can tell where somebody is coming from by hearing them say "their" word for it :) I am a "Knust" lover.

My spouse like the end pieces. Me, not so much. We are well matched in this and many many other ways.

Trying to cut the end piece of a baguette is what lead to me needing surgery. I despise them now

This reminds me of the Top Of The Muffin To You cafe on Seinfeld. They had to learn the hard way that you can't just make muffin tops without the stumps. You have to make the whole muffin to get a good top. And you probably have to bake a whole loaf to get good heels/butts.

I would eat these until I weighed five thousand pounds.

Bread egg. Bregg.

Rude

Isn't that just a roll?

Like one of those zig-zag brownie pans meant to achieve more corner squares.

Frankly, this seems like something Roko might enjoy experimenting with.

That was a lot of bread talk in the comments - WHEN THEY ARE SO CUTE!!!!

This is a butt joke and we all know it

These sound perfect for clarified butter with garlic dipping to me... maybe toss in a smidge of rosemary, thyme or some other favorite herb?

I cannot believe this comic does not contain a butts joke.

Heels are for SOUP.

I'm one of the end piece freaks. A good bread crust is what I came for, so the end pieces are the whole POINT. (people who cut crusts off of bread; it's okay, they took care of the stone chip issue awhile back, it's now safe to eat)

Those are uncut croutons for my soup!

Hmmm, that could possibly work with the right condiments. Garlic butter, cheese, relish. Either cut in half and spread (or melted in) or dipped. They could good for dipping.

Back to the drawing board, Elliot.

I like the end pieces but I also like the middle pieces. Wouldn't this just be a bun of some sort though?

I like the end pieces and I will admit to being wierd 😝

Great googlie moogly! can these two be any MORE wholesome?

Mmm... Butts.

Bregg.

I love eating the heel (end piece) of a loaf of bread! Multiple times I've wondered aloud to my mother-in-law (who makes bread for us) if it would be possible to make bread such that it was just all heel. I think that would basically be a bread pancake. Thank you for making this; this is wonderful! (And Clinton and Elliot are both such cute goobers.)

I did not come here to be insulted!

Weird

Team croumch forever.

All Heel Baguette

But wouldn't that just be a crusty roll?

The ends are butter cups, and Clinton forgot the butter: Mo' butta, mo' betta!

Man, the end pieces are the best, but you need the center pieces to make the end pieces correctly.

END PIECE SQUAD cronch

When I was a kid my mother would get sourdough baguettes from Safeway and I liked to eat them after they they got stale, they were nice and crunchy. Unfortunately Safeway's sourdough sucks now.

Isn't that just a bun?

I really hope they work out. They are adorable

Why is Elliot such a goober?

Flip the marketing pitch on its head: it's not "just the ends of a baguette", it's "raw croutons"

End pieces are great!

End pieces are good

CROMCH

Woo, happy comic number forty-four-forty-four!

Seriously, it just needs a filling. Something creamy. And wow, this sounds bad.

So this is where Clinton gets superpowers?

Perhaps this was inspired by....Chaos Bread?

Ends rule.

THE END PIECES ARE THE BEST PART!

PUT AN EGG BETWEEN THE END PIECES!
