Favorite bagel?

[Ellen Forradalom]

Poll question: Favorite bagel?

And a question: Why do they always pack the onion bagels next to the cinnamon-raisin ones???

On edit: Damn, I just got cream cheese on my iBook.

1. I think I am going up to make a bagel

I have blueberry ones mmmmmmm but cinnamon and raison are my favorites. Plus I don't like flavored cream cheese, regular Philadelphia cream cheese is the best.

3. NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CREAM CHEESE!!!!! IT MAGICALLY DISAPPEARED!!!!!! Ugh I am jonsing for a bagel.

8. There's a dollop on my iBook

Want it?

2. What's up with the "Everything" bagels?

Those are just plain horrible:(

5. As a child my dad ate those.

I hated waking up to the smell that those made while in the toaster.

6. an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese...

mmmmmmmm:9

[trotsky]

Oh yes, veggie cream cheese

I was really not much of a bagel & cream cheese fan until I first tasted that stuff. Doesn't really matter what kind of bagel you spread it on (as long as it's not a sweet one), it's just damn good.

7. Yep, for people who like cinnamon-raisin with onion and salt

and every other thing they have in the kitchen. Bleccch!

16. They call them U.N. bagles here

I like 'em!

[NewYorkerfromMass]

17. Everything RULES!!!!

literally.

[cmf]

20. I love everythings

That's the only type I'll eat if they have them. They're good for indecisive people.

23. WHA?

I love 'everything' bagels!

4. Now you've done it

I have to go out and get some bagels for breakfast now. ;-)

9. Prefer Biali's

but haven't seen one in a long time. That little patch of onions on top! Yum!

[leftynyc]

21. Bialys are the best!!!

There's actually a place on the lower east side in Manhattan that only makes bialys. With some veggie cream cheese....YUUMMM!!! Pure heaven on a plate.

10. Onion bagel

regular cream cheese
capers if you've got 'em
tomatoes
red onions
lox
Open faced, of course.

And to (well, not really) answer your question: The nice people at the bagel place here, when I bought 3 dozen bagels for work, put the sweet bagels in one box and the non-sweet bagels in another.

[Ellen Forradalom]

11. Those folks have brains.

I can't count the number of times my cinnamon-raisin bagel had an overpowering aroma of onion. YUCK!

[MUAD_DIB]

12. Garlic Bagel!

Grilled with a little butter.


How could you omit such a godsend??!!

[Ellen Forradalom]

15. Aw jeez

I knew someone was going to be outraged that I omitted their favorite Pomengranate Pimento bagel. I subsumed 'garlic' under 'onion' in order to get a wider sample. I also omitted my favorite, Honey Nut.

[omshanti]

13. Sesame!!!

[bobja]

14. Garlic! and more garlic!

That's my favorite. A bagel with anything sweet in it, to me, is not a real bagel, that's a donut.

But I can never get enough garlic on my bagels! Yum! Toasted with some veggie cream cheese.

[noonwitch]

18. Sesame seed, with cream cheese, lox and purple onions on top

Mmm

[jus_the_facts]

19. Plain w/strawberry cream cheese....or honey nut cream cheese....

:9

[Johnyawl]

22. A man of simple tastes...

...a plain bagel, toasted, with plain cream cheese.

And I never get the cream cheese on my 'puter; the beard catches everything that gets away from the mouth.

[Parche]

24. bagels suck

They are aweful and tasteless

[pmbryant]

25. Certain ones do.

Like the ones that virtually every grocery store I've ever shopped at sell.

But if you go to a real bagel shop, they are quite exceptional. Unfortunately, these can be hard to find, especially in certain parts of the country.
