The endcap covers the rest for them to stay fresh longer. It has a goddamn job to do.
This is the way. The butts sacrifice themselves for the greater good.
The butts are never truly sacrificed when youre on your last PB and J.
Just flip it over and you'll never even notice the heel. The caveat is that you can't do a heel and heel sandwich as it wont hold together properly
But your tongue will know!
It always knows.
The Greater Good!
I doubt the end being there makes much of a difference, it's already sliced and air can easily get into the cracks. Plus you're always taking the front piece which has supposedly had the most contact with the environment, so it doesn't have much of a chance to go bad. Furthermore by reaching your grubby fingers around to sneak a middle piece you probably pose a bigger risk of contamination to the loaf.
I'm not convinced this method keeps bread longer until it's put to the test.
And now it has served its purpose, now it must be put to rest.
