Drop last element of parts of a list

Question

just a simple question for now I guess:

I have a list:

list={{1, 2, 1}, {1, 10, 1}}

I simply want to Drop the last element of the two entries of the list, that is the 1's at the end. I tried it this way:

Table[Drop[list[[x]], -1], {x, 1, Length[list]}]

but I don't like it this way. I feel I'm always stuck on using this Table-function,and I'm pretty sure this can be done in a much easier way

@Kuba Complement[Duplicate[]] ;-) but voting to close anyway because similar questions around here have tons of good answers on that topic, esp. here — Yves Klett, May 08 '14 at 10:37
@LeonidShifrin This is just the kind of question that will get a dozen brilliant answers even if it is kind of RTFM :D — Yves Klett, May 08 '14 at 10:43

How about

Most/@yourList

This should perhaps be the shortest way to do it.
