Have you ever heard "if you eat the crust on the bread, it will make you have curly hair"?!
Answers: I believe it's a very old saying, but I was not told that as a child.
I totally heard that as a kid (actually from my relatives from PR, strangely enough)...which is why I used to hate bread crust!
I never heard it before!
I alway's eat the crust and my hair is bone straight.
Just a Mom's way of getting kids to eat the whole peice of bread and not waste it. They also say an apple a day keeps the Doctor away....who knows?...I have never ate an apple every day,,,that one could be true..LOL You try that one and let me know if it works...
no
no, iv'e not heard that one, but I have heard that if you eat horseradish it will make you grow chest hairs.
and if you swallow a watermelon seed you'll grow a watermelon in your tummy. and if you eat raw potaotes you'll get worms. I wonder if that one is true?
Yes! I grew up in Wyoming and my parents told me that all the time! The thing is, I had curly hair and I hated it, but I still had to eat the crust. Now I just love crust because I love the crunchiness. My hair is totally straight now, though. I guess the saying doesn't work!
i hope its not true cuz i love bread crust and i have brown curly hair that i only developed when i got into 4th grade...
I wouldn't know . I'm bald
The crust is supposed to be where the concentration of vitamins is in a piece of white bread. Also assumes curly hair = healthy hair, ie, crust=curly hair
I grew up in Illinois north of Chicago and heard that all the time from my grandmother and my mom - I hated it because I had curly hair and hated my curly hair. Now my hair is straight.
NO
Never
but
thank you for the laugh of the day..!
I am 67..!
and such nonsense is well unbelieveable..
have a wonderful day,, like the TV ,,+8 years for laughing
Have never heard that. I always ate my crust and my hair was straight as a board. I only got waves when I had chemo, all my hair fell out then grew back in.

I just read that earlier today in the Family Circle comic strip in today's (Sunday) comic section! The older boy didn't want to eat his crust because then he would look like his little brother (with the curly hair). Learn something new every day, in my case twice!
