A childhood belief about crusts

When I was 7 years old, I always ate my crust without any fuss. It was just more bread in my mind. However, my principal, who had long beautiful locks of red hair, said to a friend of mine that her hair was curly because she had always eaten her crusts as a child. This did not win over my friend, but it won me over since I've always had straight, flat hair. Soon I was on a mission to get that curly hair! If a friend didn't eat their crust, I always ate it for them. I also took a liking to the heels of loaves, because, logically, they were all crust. I worked so hard, but to no avail. I still have straight hair, and a taste for the heels.
