breadcrust
Sandwich's brown border
Breadcrust is the outer layer of a loaf of bread, typically darker and firmer than the soft interior.
Children often prefer sandwiches with the crusts cut off.
In geology, a breadcrust bomb is a volcanic rock with a cracked surface resembling bread crust, formed when the exterior cooled faster than the expanding interior.
