00:01:06 ◼   ► willing to recognize whether an SUV is

00:01:09 ◼   ► children's soccer balls in it

00:01:11 ◼   ► yeah I'd also don't I'm not sure I can

00:01:15 ◼   ► anyway so we're doing top 4 yes

00:01:18 ◼   ► bagels top four bagels now do I forget

00:01:22 ◼   ► where we land on whether we're including

00:01:25 ◼   ► obviously we're gonna talk about bagel

00:01:27 ◼   ► flavors but are we also going to talk

00:01:28 ◼   ► about like entire bagel sandwiches like

00:01:31 ◼   ► what all goes on that bagel your

00:01:33 ◼   ► favorite bagel flavor you have to have

00:01:36 ◼   ► reasons behind it and one of those

00:01:37 ◼   ► reasons should obviously you have

00:01:39 ◼   ► reasons it should include sandwich or

00:01:43 ◼   ► not so you want to decide you know like

00:01:46 ◼   ► the reason you like the bagel is based

00:01:49 ◼   ► on its application in your life that you

00:01:52 ◼   ► prefer so if you like if you're a

00:01:54 ◼   ► sandwich person and you prefer bagels

00:01:56 ◼   ► most with sandwich you're obviously

00:01:58 ◼   ► going to pick the superior bagel

00:02:00 ◼   ► sandwich bagel but if you like it with

00:02:03 ◼   ► butter or you like it with cream cheese

00:02:04 ◼   ► that's gonna be your preference is

00:02:06 ◼   ► whatever your favorite bagel is with

00:02:08 ◼   ► those accoutrement I guess you would say

00:02:11 ◼   ► okay that makes sense though

00:02:13 ◼   ► so that so that should inform your

00:02:15 ◼   ► listing decisions because I mean no one

00:02:18 ◼   ► just eats a plain bagel I mean who does

00:02:20 ◼   ► that you're like yes somebody does

00:02:22 ◼   ► children with no teeth like little

00:02:25 ◼   ► babies that gnaw on bagels yeah even

00:02:28 ◼   ► they tended like so memory isn't better

00:02:29 ◼   ► yeah well they like anything cuz they

00:02:31 ◼   ► just like gumming it to death and then

00:02:33 ◼   ► it becomes like a big messy lump cuz

00:02:36 ◼   ► they're so cute yeah it's so cute when

00:02:38 ◼   ► they eat anyway babies they're all just

00:02:44 ◼   ► gumming on bagels first yeah I could go

00:02:49 ◼   ► first I have a toss up for my number

00:02:53 ◼   ► four because okay I have for right

00:02:57 ◼   ► perfectly just for the record you know

00:02:58 ◼   ► all the other ones okay two and three

00:03:00 ◼   ► I'm also waffling but number one is the

00:03:03 ◼   ► cure two and three are waffling between

00:03:04 ◼   ► each other and number four is okay let

00:03:07 ◼   ► me tell you why I'm feelin all weird

00:03:08 ◼   ► here because my number four choice

00:03:12 ◼   ► potentially would be a bagel that I do

00:03:14 ◼   ► not get access to very often which is

00:03:17 ◼   ► asiago cheese

00:03:18 ◼   ► I have not hat don't say anything yet

00:03:21 ◼   ► stop looking at me like that

00:03:23 ◼   ► okay asiago cheese I've only had it in

00:03:26 ◼   ► Ohio from a bagel place that were

00:03:29 ◼   ► Brooklyn people who came and started a

00:03:31 ◼   ► bagel place so it wasn't just like

00:03:34 ◼   ► bruger's or something like that out

00:03:36 ◼   ► there none of the blocks yes I had it a

00:03:39 ◼   ► blocks okay so it was sure I didn't they

00:03:43 ◼   ► offered that flavor yes I had it with a

00:03:45 ◼   ► chicken salad on it and it's very very

00:03:47 ◼   ► good with chicken salad okay maybe I did

00:03:48 ◼   ► have it at bruger's oh my gosh so I saw

00:03:52 ◼   ► your cheese bagels I mean so I know my

00:03:55 ◼   ► world is just okay my number four bagel

00:03:57 ◼   ► is a blueberry bagel because it is

00:04:01 ◼   ► accessible everywhere that our great

00:04:03 ◼   ► bagels are accessible which is all of

00:04:05 ◼   ► the New York lower area which has the

00:04:08 ◼   ► best bagels the New York the lower New

00:04:12 ◼   ► York region yeah okay pocket that's okay

00:04:16 ◼   ► keep going yeah so blueberry yeah I was

00:04:21 ◼   ► gonna say asiago cheese because I really

00:04:23 ◼   ► do like it I haven't had it in a very

00:04:25 ◼   ► long time I think it's kind of a really

00:04:27 ◼   ► good

00:04:27 ◼   ► savory it has like the cheese melted I

00:04:29 ◼   ► don't know it's just very good but it is

00:04:30 ◼   ► kind of a base of a plain bagel with

00:04:33 ◼   ► kind of a mild cheese on it melted kind

00:04:36 ◼   ► of like into it ish

00:04:38 ◼   ► so yeah honorable mention Accio which is

00:04:41 ◼   ► number four blueberry because blueberry

00:04:44 ◼   ► bagels are excellent and they sound

00:04:46 ◼   ► really weird and they sound like

00:04:47 ◼   ► something a child would have but I like

00:04:51 ◼   ► them a lot they do not taste like

00:04:52 ◼   ► blueberry cake donuts that is very sweet

00:04:57 ◼   ► this is more of a weird savory blueberry

00:05:00 ◼   ► happening and I really like it with

00:05:02 ◼   ► plain cream cheese interesting no see

00:05:05 ◼   ► like eye or butter yeah usually I would

00:05:08 ◼   ► expect the the fruity bagels the

00:05:10 ◼   ► cinnamon raisin and the blueberry to be

00:05:12 ◼   ► toasted with butter most of the time

00:05:14 ◼   ► well toast with butter does bring it

00:05:16 ◼   ► like a little bit more sweetness to it

00:05:18 ◼   ► especially because you know you have

00:05:19 ◼   ► sweet cream butter and all that has

00:05:20 ◼   ► stuff but if you want more of a

00:05:22 ◼   ► substantial breakfast I guess blueberry

00:05:26 ◼   ► with cream cheese is there is really

00:05:28 ◼   ► really really good and it's way better

00:05:30 ◼   ► than all of the other weird seeded

00:05:32 ◼   ► bagels that are out there I should say

00:05:36 ◼   ► lonely seeded bagels we will get there

00:05:39 ◼   ► better man those are terrible and plain

00:05:44 ◼   ► why bother why bother we are in complete

00:05:47 ◼   ► agreement on that yeah plain to me a

00:05:49 ◼   ► plain bagel plain bagels are delicious

00:05:51 ◼   ► however there are so many better bagels

00:05:55 ◼   ► I would rather get any other bagel than

00:05:56 ◼   ► plain I feel like then you're just

00:05:57 ◼   ► eating like a dough ring like well I

00:06:00 ◼   ► mean okay bad bagels our dough rings

00:06:02 ◼   ► good bagels are malted nice and

00:06:03 ◼   ► delicious but like a plain bit it's just

00:06:06 ◼   ► like you might as well I don't know I

00:06:07 ◼   ► rather pick a croissant you know I

00:06:09 ◼   ► actually that's a tough call between

00:06:11 ◼   ► like it's been the mode of meeting if if

00:06:14 ◼   ► I have like you know a croissant with

00:06:15 ◼   ► you know stuff in it or like a plain

00:06:17 ◼   ► bagel like you know maybe with with some

00:06:19 ◼   ► flavored cream cheese on it or toast it

00:06:21 ◼   ► with some nice butter like I would

00:06:23 ◼   ► rather have other bagel flavors if I

00:06:25 ◼   ► have the option but if I don't have the

00:06:26 ◼   ► option if my option is either plain

00:06:28 ◼   ► bagel or like just plain old bread I

00:06:30 ◼   ► would take the bagel over the bread even

00:06:32 ◼   ► if it's plain however there are so many

00:06:35 ◼   ► good breads now like all the crazy

00:06:37 ◼   ► breads that come out the focaccia and

00:06:39 ◼   ► something-something and the flat this

00:06:41 ◼   ► and the I suppose I see that I don't

00:06:43 ◼   ► know but like there's lots of different

00:06:45 ◼   ► breads out there that if I'm gonna have

00:06:47 ◼   ► a bagel I'm gonna want my favorite bagel

00:06:49 ◼   ► flavors my top four bagels favorite play

00:06:51 ◼   ► baby before favorite bagel flavors or

00:06:57 ◼   ► something else that's okay that's a

00:07:00 ◼   ► difference in opinion yep

00:07:02 ◼   ► speaking of another difference of

00:07:03 ◼   ► opinion that was almost the same my

00:07:04 ◼   ► number four bagel is yes I go cheese

00:07:07 ◼   ► bagel really good stir over there

00:07:11 ◼   ► because I pick the same thing thinking

00:07:13 ◼   ► that you wouldn't have so my number yeah

00:07:16 ◼   ► so I cheese bagels you know they most

00:07:18 ◼   ► New York bagel places don't even offer

00:07:20 ◼   ► them that's why I kind of was like

00:07:23 ◼   ► honorable mention waffling because no

00:07:25 ◼   ► it's not around here it's not a true

00:07:28 ◼   ► bagel flavor well it's not an old-school

00:07:30 ◼   ► bagel flavor it's alright it isn't the

00:07:31 ◼   ► traditional bagel flavor and I think a

00:07:34 ◼   ► lot of places don't offer it or don't

00:07:36 ◼   ► consider it or even look down on it

00:07:38 ◼   ► because it isn't one of the like

00:07:39 ◼   ► old-school traditional like New York

00:07:41 ◼   ► slash Jewish previously how fast did the

00:07:44 ◼   ► cinnamon sugar a french toast bagel

00:07:48 ◼   ► we're all into everyone's baskets in the

00:07:50 ◼   ► in the bagel places sure similar that

00:07:52 ◼   ► jumped the that that jumped in pretty

00:07:54 ◼   ► quickly and now it's like a standard in

00:07:56 ◼   ► most places that's true I mean maybe

00:07:58 ◼   ► maybe that one sells a lots of kids and

00:07:59 ◼   ► that's one of the reasons I don't know

00:08:01 ◼   ► anyway regardless people like Sarah the

00:08:04 ◼   ► usher good cheese bagel I it seemed to

00:08:06 ◼   ► become really big in like the early

00:08:07 ◼   ► 2000s with with the spread of the big

00:08:09 ◼   ► chain bagel stores and and then ideas

00:08:12 ◼   ► and and I feel a New York don't even

00:08:15 ◼   ► know what those are no they would never

00:08:17 ◼   ► survive here exactly so I first had them

00:08:20 ◼   ► at bruger's and Panera and actually

00:08:22 ◼   ► first Panera I think then bruger's I

00:08:24 ◼   ► think they are kind of swept the nation

00:08:26 ◼   ► with the I see I go cheese bagel then

00:08:28 ◼   ► everyone else kind of followed suit but

00:08:30 ◼   ► what I like about it and I think it

00:08:33 ◼   ► deserves more respect than it gets

00:08:35 ◼   ► because it has brought a lot of people

00:08:38 ◼   ► like Midwesterners in to bagels a lot

00:08:40 ◼   ► more effectively than previous attempts

00:08:42 ◼   ► had do you think that there's a secret

00:08:44 ◼   ► bagel cartel happening in New York State

00:08:47 ◼   ► that keeps out the chain bagel places I

00:08:50 ◼   ► think it's the I first of

00:08:53 ◼   ► do we know that I mean they they have

00:08:55 ◼   ► Panera's in the New York area but no one

00:08:57 ◼   ► buys their Pagels I don't know I don't

00:09:01 ◼   ► even think they make they make them for

00:09:02 ◼   ► the sandwiches I guess but that's about

00:09:04 ◼   ► it I mean if you know one going in

00:09:06 ◼   ► buying a dozen bagels from Panera I mean

00:09:07 ◼   ► I bet sigh but people do I mean people

00:09:09 ◼   ► having shoes at Subway in the city I

00:09:11 ◼   ► will judge them so hard if someone

00:09:14 ◼   ► brought a dozen Panera bagels to our

00:09:16 ◼   ► house I'd be like what are you doing

00:09:20 ◼   ► yeah not not so much that that like

00:09:22 ◼   ► they're bad but just we have so many

00:09:25 ◼   ► problems better like I rather they go to

00:09:27 ◼   ► a really crappy bagel place then bring

00:09:30 ◼   ► Panera because at least so the bagel

00:09:33 ◼   ► place that that were I'm not going to

00:09:35 ◼   ► name it because it's mean but there's a

00:09:37 ◼   ► bagel place that's near us that is I

00:09:40 ◼   ► think worse than Panera hotring of

00:09:42 ◼   ► garbage yeah so I don't know anyway I

00:09:46 ◼   ► shall go cheese bagel I think deserves

00:09:48 ◼   ► special mention here because it really

00:09:52 ◼   ► has advanced bagel flavors past the old

00:09:54 ◼   ► cartel flavors and it was like one of

00:09:56 ◼   ► the first ones to do that and it really

00:09:58 ◼   ► has brought in a lot of people from the

00:09:59 ◼   ► rest of the country who did who aren't

00:10:00 ◼   ► in like bagel strong areas and also as

00:10:04 ◼   ► just a you know the reason why I thought

00:10:06 ◼   ► my number four is not just for honorable

00:10:08 ◼   ► mention because it really is a very good

00:10:11 ◼   ► bagel for sandwiches I don't think it's

00:10:14 ◼   ► very good toasting it I it's actually

00:10:17 ◼   ► kinda difficult to touch with it making

00:10:18 ◼   ► a catch on fire because the cheese tends

00:10:20 ◼   ► to burn but anyway so don't toast them

00:10:22 ◼   ► but for sandwiches I I think they're

00:10:25 ◼   ► actually quite good if you're gonna have

00:10:27 ◼   ► like like Turkey or something like you

00:10:29 ◼   ► know exactly right yeah it works it

00:10:36 ◼   ► totally works

00:10:36 ◼   ► so I think it is great for that it is my

00:10:40 ◼   ► number four for that reason so my

00:10:42 ◼   ► brother he moved out to Moline Illinois

00:10:45 ◼   ► and he lives out there and works for

00:10:47 ◼   ► John Deere and being a New Yorker in you

00:10:51 ◼   ► know the the corn Heartland out there a

00:10:53 ◼   ► whole bunch of people they eat bagels in

00:10:58 ◼   ► their shop and the bagels they get are

00:11:00 ◼   ► like lender's bagels from the grocery

00:11:02 ◼   ► store like in bags right that's what I

00:11:04 ◼   ► grew up on in Ohio which is right

00:11:06 ◼   ► I love them they were so good so they're

00:11:10 ◼   ► barely bagels but okay so when he went

00:11:13 ◼   ► home he was telling us about this he's

00:11:16 ◼   ► like I can't believe the bagels they

00:11:17 ◼   ► have out there they're so terrible so he

00:11:19 ◼   ► brought to them a whole bunch of New

00:11:22 ◼   ► York bagels like we packed them all up

00:11:24 ◼   ► and and he he brought them back to

00:11:26 ◼   ► Illinois and when he put them out for

00:11:29 ◼   ► everyone at breakfast they were all

00:11:31 ◼   ► really confused that they weren't cut

00:11:33 ◼   ► and they're like what kind of cheap

00:11:36 ◼   ► bagel place do you get these from that

00:11:38 ◼   ► they don't cut their bagels and he's

00:11:40 ◼   ► like you're so used to them being from

00:11:42 ◼   ► the package that you just expect them

00:11:45 ◼   ► all to be cut whether they're from a

00:11:46 ◼   ► fresh bakery or they're from the grocery

00:11:49 ◼   ► store and that to me is just astounding

00:11:51 ◼   ► so I put a lot of people listening right

00:11:52 ◼   ► now are like wow yeah yeah we don't cut

00:11:55 ◼   ► our bagels they just arrive in a brown

00:11:57 ◼   ► bag do you think there are any listeners

00:12:00 ◼   ► that have made it this far into both

00:12:01 ◼   ► knowing us and also into listening to

00:12:03 ◼   ► this episode who don't know like proper

00:12:07 ◼   ► East Coast bagels it's possible Wow if

00:12:09 ◼   ► you I mean look at the the guys that my

00:12:11 ◼   ► brother was working with you know and

00:12:13 ◼   ► and guys and and women who my brother

00:12:15 ◼   ► was working with but they aren't listen

00:12:16 ◼   ► to our show they're not listening to our

00:12:18 ◼   ► show but I mean they're out there and

00:12:20 ◼   ► they didn't expect that to show up when

00:12:22 ◼   ► he you know my brother tells them oh I'm

00:12:24 ◼   ► gonna bring you real bagels and then he

00:12:26 ◼   ► shows up and they're like no I'm just

00:12:28 ◼   ► surprised that those people would be

00:12:29 ◼   ► tolerating us this long I figured if he

00:12:32 ◼   ► were that much if you were that far from

00:12:34 ◼   ► like bagels snobbery culture I figure

00:12:37 ◼   ► you would have turned this off long ago

00:12:38 ◼   ► well some people like to get knowledge

00:12:40 ◼   ► regardless right well for those people

00:12:43 ◼   ► we salute you know if there are people

00:12:46 ◼   ► listening out there who have not had a

00:12:50 ◼   ► like coastal bagel california bagels are

00:12:56 ◼   ► kind of weak i mean i mean but there are

00:12:58 ◼   ► plenty i mean look at the place blocks

00:12:59 ◼   ► in in columbus you know there are plenty

00:13:03 ◼   ► of places where brooklyn natives or

00:13:06 ◼   ► someone New York native has gone out and

00:13:11 ◼   ► rest of the world no it's serious like

00:13:18 ◼   ► weird thing not weird but that's like

00:13:20 ◼   ► the way to make

00:13:21 ◼   ► people a lot of people don't know how to

00:13:22 ◼   ► make an authentic New York bagel yeah

00:13:25 ◼   ► it's just you know they think they're

00:13:27 ◼   ► making bagels but they're just making

00:13:29 ◼   ► rings of dough right they're making

00:13:31 ◼   ► circular bread with a hole in the middle

00:13:52 ◼   ► love it with scallion cream cheese a

00:13:54 ◼   ► little salty sweet that is weird

00:13:56 ◼   ► it's so awesome and you don't think as

00:13:58 ◼   ► well you think it's weird every time but

00:14:00 ◼   ► you totally know my order it and see I I

00:14:03 ◼   ► totally respect both the cinnamon raisin

00:14:05 ◼   ► bagel and scallion cream cheese on their

00:14:08 ◼   ► own and in other combinations I love

00:14:10 ◼   ► both of those things however the

00:14:12 ◼   ► combination of those two is really weird

00:14:14 ◼   ► oh no it's so good okay listeners out

00:14:16 ◼   ► there you're gonna first you're gonna

00:14:18 ◼   ► tell us if you're from the Midwest and

00:14:19 ◼   ► have never seen a real bagel second

00:14:21 ◼   ► you're going to tell us you're going to

00:14:23 ◼   ► go out right now if it's the morning and

00:14:26 ◼   ► you're gonna get yourself a bagel and

00:14:27 ◼   ► you're gonna get yourself some scallion

00:14:29 ◼   ► cream cheese and you will put them

00:14:30 ◼   ► together and you will be amazed at how

00:14:32 ◼   ► delicious it is that's right I should

00:14:34 ◼   ► also point out to you said if it's the

00:14:37 ◼   ► morning to go to bagels it is not

00:14:39 ◼   ► possible to get good bagels after about

00:14:42 ◼   ► 2:00 p.m.

00:14:43 ◼   ► oh no yeah yeah you cannot no yeah don't

00:14:47 ◼   ► do it like it really goes later get an

00:14:50 ◼   ► early bagel and then wrap it up and and

00:14:53 ◼   ► keep it I don't know because they leave

00:14:54 ◼   ► them out in the baskets that's the

00:14:55 ◼   ► problem so if you get early bagels

00:14:57 ◼   ► you can always wrap them up and keep

00:14:58 ◼   ► them a little bit more moist in like a

00:15:01 ◼   ► paper bag in a plastic bag paper and

00:15:04 ◼   ► then plastic over that and then your

00:15:06 ◼   ► bagel will last exactly all right so my

00:15:09 ◼   ► number three it's kind of a valley to

00:15:12 ◼   ► find flavor it's kind of the general

00:15:15 ◼   ► category of like medium brown

00:15:18 ◼   ► whole-wheat honey kind of like wheat

00:15:22 ◼   ► bagels that usually have oats adhered to

00:15:24 ◼   ► the outside yes I know what you're

00:15:28 ◼   ► talking about but I can't believe that's

00:15:29 ◼   ► on your list it is because the first one

00:15:32 ◼   ► my list is short as you'll see well it

00:15:34 ◼   ► should

00:15:34 ◼   ► for yes and they're thinking about it

00:15:39 ◼   ► yeah I see that for you

00:15:41 ◼   ► yeah yeah so yeah I actually a travel

00:15:44 ◼   ► coming up before

00:15:46 ◼   ► that's how blueberry got on my list

00:15:48 ◼   ► exactly crazy thing so so these these

00:15:50 ◼   ► kind of like you know we honey wheat

00:15:52 ◼   ► whatever whole wheat whatever with oats

00:15:54 ◼   ► on the outside those are excellent

00:15:57 ◼   ► when toasted with butter and that is

00:16:00 ◼   ► it's such a nice like um kind of unique

00:16:03 ◼   ► combo of like texture and flavor and

00:16:05 ◼   ► everything I really enjoy that as a

00:16:08 ◼   ► breakfast combo just the whole wheat

00:16:10 ◼   ► with oats on the outside toast with

00:16:12 ◼   ► butter I always feel like that the whole

00:16:14 ◼   ► wheat bagel has a little bit of bagel

00:16:16 ◼   ► guilt that you're eating a whole wheat

00:16:17 ◼   ► bagel because you feel guilty for eating

00:16:19 ◼   ► a bagel so you're really oh the whole

00:16:22 ◼   ► wheat because it's better right yeah I

00:16:25 ◼   ► mean I hold none of those illusions but

00:16:29 ◼   ► or whatever that word is there but

00:16:30 ◼   ► delusions delusions there we go that's

00:16:33 ◼   ► much better

00:16:34 ◼   ► yeah English major obviously yeah so I

00:16:37 ◼   ► hold none of those delusions I know that

00:16:40 ◼   ► every time I eat a bagel it's just the

00:16:41 ◼   ► way too much carbs and gluten and

00:16:44 ◼   ► everything for what we should be doing

00:16:46 ◼   ► but yeah that combo whole wheat with

00:16:49 ◼   ► oats and an side with toast with butter

00:16:50 ◼   ► awesome

00:16:50 ◼   ► bagel guilt okay my number two is the

00:16:54 ◼   ► everything bagel I do not like all these

00:16:59 ◼   ► seeded bagels I do not like regular

00:17:01 ◼   ► poppy seed or sesame seed I do not like

00:17:04 ◼   ► the single bagels I all a single seeded

00:17:06 ◼   ► bagels I only like the multi seed bagel

00:17:09 ◼   ► and the reason the multi seed bagel is

00:17:12 ◼   ► the best because it has salt and it has

00:17:15 ◼   ► garlic on it and it doesn't have those

00:17:18 ◼   ► flavors so exclusively like there's so

00:17:21 ◼   ► much it's so it's not just like a salt

00:17:23 ◼   ► bag or bagel which exists if everyone is

00:17:26 ◼   ► surprised by that who is not from over

00:17:28 ◼   ► around here or a garlic bagel which is

00:17:32 ◼   ► just way too much garlic because a lot

00:17:34 ◼   ► of times they do put the garlic in the

00:17:35 ◼   ► dough as well so it has yeah John I've

00:17:39 ◼   ► never seen that I mean I should point

00:17:41 ◼   ► out like garlicky those are garlic

00:17:43 ◼   ► bagels I should point out about bagels

00:17:45 ◼   ► too they have it in the dough

00:17:46 ◼   ► they have salt in the dough you

00:17:48 ◼   ► well yeah they put that it's extra salt

00:17:49 ◼   ► like it there's chunks of salt in the

00:17:51 ◼   ► dough sometimes mmm that's weird is it

00:17:54 ◼   ► no I mean so I should point out so I

00:17:56 ◼   ► worked at bruger's in high school in

00:17:58 ◼   ► Ohio and so my my experience of like how

00:18:03 ◼   ► the bagel restaurants work is solely

00:18:05 ◼   ► based on that which was granted

00:18:07 ◼   ► something like sixteen seventeen years

00:18:11 ◼   ► ago and was also a provers in Ohio so

00:18:15 ◼   ► obviously I don't know I've never worked

00:18:16 ◼   ► in like a like a you know quote a real

00:18:17 ◼   ► bagel store but I do know from back then

00:18:20 ◼   ► like all the flavors that they did you

00:18:23 ◼   ► know like the all the seeded bagels and

00:18:25 ◼   ► the salt and Moe which kind of council

00:18:28 ◼   ► those were all based on the plain bagel

00:18:30 ◼   ► dough you know just whatever seed you

00:18:32 ◼   ► put on top you know many of the flavors

00:18:34 ◼   ► just have the same plain bagel dough in

00:18:36 ◼   ► the middle and you just put different

00:18:37 ◼   ► things on top some of them are a little

00:18:40 ◼   ► bit more complicated than that certain

00:18:41 ◼   ► bagel places its but yeah it's possible

00:18:43 ◼   ► like hot bagels I'm pretty sure they put

00:18:45 ◼   ► it all in it's it's tricky you know what

00:18:48 ◼   ► what makes garlic and onion so good on

00:18:51 ◼   ► the outside of a bagel

00:18:52 ◼   ► is that they are baked so it gets kind

00:18:55 ◼   ► of toasted garlic right when it goes on

00:18:58 ◼   ► it's not it's raw when it goes on it

00:18:59 ◼   ► gets toasted in the baked and so if you

00:19:02 ◼   ► if you put these on the inside in the

00:19:03 ◼   ► dough it doesn't really work it doesn't

00:19:05 ◼   ► really develop that that nice toasty

00:19:07 ◼   ► flavor so it act that that's you know

00:19:10 ◼   ► even you can think about it like you

00:19:11 ◼   ► know when you bake things at home you

00:19:12 ◼   ► have the same issue of like when

00:19:14 ◼   ► something's inside something it takes on

00:19:16 ◼   ► a very different characteristic when

00:19:18 ◼   ► cooking than when it's on the outside

00:19:20 ◼   ► being toasted or heated directly okay

00:19:22 ◼   ► for the sake of argument then we can say

00:19:24 ◼   ► it's only outside but anyway regardless

00:19:26 ◼   ► of what's on the outside I don't like

00:19:28 ◼   ► when they are singular things on the

00:19:29 ◼   ► outside I find them too strong and so I

00:19:32 ◼   ► but for an everything bagel I like the

00:19:35 ◼   ► combination and the balance that it

00:19:37 ◼   ► brings and I believe that the best

00:19:39 ◼   ► interior for an everything bagel is

00:19:40 ◼   ► chicken salad because it it's not as

00:19:44 ◼   ► it's not like you're biting through a

00:19:46 ◼   ► wall of meat or a wall of vegetables

00:19:48 ◼   ► depending on what you put on your sliced

00:19:51 ◼   ► kind of sandwiches or like a wall of

00:19:53 ◼   ► cheese those type of things taste much

00:19:55 ◼   ► better on the asiago cheese bagel and

00:19:58 ◼   ► but for the everything bagel the

00:20:01 ◼   ► the the velvety texture of a really good

00:20:04 ◼   ► chicken salad balance is super well with

00:20:07 ◼   ► all the flavors of an everything so I

00:20:09 ◼   ► love everything bagels I would not toast

00:20:12 ◼   ► it with butter I find it that to be too

00:20:14 ◼   ► strong there's like too much seed going

00:20:17 ◼   ► on well there's a lot of salt if you do

00:20:19 ◼   ► that because you have salted butter on

00:20:20 ◼   ► top of a salty bagel it's okay with

00:20:22 ◼   ► cream cheese scallion cream cheese is

00:20:25 ◼   ► very good with an everything bagel but

00:20:27 ◼   ► there are other bagels which is my

00:20:28 ◼   ► number one bagel that is better off with

00:20:32 ◼   ► cream cheese so chicken salad on and

00:20:34 ◼   ► everything bagel is my number two and

00:20:36 ◼   ► also want to point out that oftentimes

00:20:38 ◼   ► everything bagels they get quarantined

00:20:40 ◼   ► in their own little bag because people

00:20:42 ◼   ► get horrified when everything bagels

00:20:44 ◼   ► kind of assault all the other bagels in

00:20:47 ◼   ► the bag yeah you know acid step yeah

00:20:49 ◼   ► that's totally fair because that that is

00:20:50 ◼   ► obviously what happens like you know you

00:20:52 ◼   ► put a but especially good like when you

00:20:53 ◼   ► put good bagels into a bag they're

00:20:56 ◼   ► probably still warm so you have this bag

00:20:58 ◼   ► worth if there's all this like kind of

00:20:59 ◼   ► like semi like steamy moisture in there

00:21:01 ◼   ► and the moisture makes the onion and the

00:21:04 ◼   ► garlic on the everything bagel is very

00:21:05 ◼   ► sticky yep and it makes it stick to all

00:21:07 ◼   ► the other bagels that are near its it's

00:21:11 ◼   ► very like it's it's kind of like a bagel

00:21:12 ◼   ► faux pas to package everything bagels

00:21:14 ◼   ► into a mixed dozen touching everything

00:21:17 ◼   ► there's are a lot of people that do not

00:21:20 ◼   ► like everything bagels at all like they

00:21:22 ◼   ► really don't like them so it's a strong

00:21:24 ◼   ► flavor and any of the other flavors

00:21:26 ◼   ► don't seem to contaminate each other but

00:21:28 ◼   ► the everything definitely does yeah I

00:21:30 ◼   ► mean I'm sure you know if you got only

00:21:32 ◼   ► onion or only garlic yeah those should

00:21:34 ◼   ► probably be quarantined too but honestly

00:21:36 ◼   ► I don't know I've never seen anybody a

00:21:39 ◼   ► quarantine onion or and well I've ever

00:21:41 ◼   ► seen anybody even buy them with the

00:21:42 ◼   ► exception of what I worked at bruger's

00:21:43 ◼   ► well you know people would would buy

00:21:45 ◼   ► them there but not often absent in the

00:21:48 ◼   ► rest of the world now in civilization

00:21:50 ◼   ► where like you know I've just been a

00:21:52 ◼   ► customer going these places and you know

00:21:54 ◼   ► just be ordering myself ordering with

00:21:57 ◼   ► friends you know ordering dozens and

00:21:58 ◼   ► everything I've never seen anybody I

00:22:00 ◼   ► don't think order a garlic or onion

00:22:03 ◼   ► bagel or at least it's very very rare

00:22:05 ◼   ► because to me it's like if you're gonna

00:22:07 ◼   ► have those flavors I'm with you on like

00:22:10 ◼   ► I don't want that much of them as when

00:22:14 ◼   ► they're when they're so low

00:22:15 ◼   ► i if you're gonna have those flavors at

00:22:17 ◼   ► all I feel like you're probably gonna

00:22:18 ◼   ► like the everything bagel better because

00:22:20 ◼   ► it has so much more and it's I think

00:22:22 ◼   ► it's in better balance yep that's the X

00:22:24 ◼   ► that's exactly why I said um but so but

00:22:26 ◼   ► when you go up to the counter and you're

00:22:28 ◼   ► like hey give me a dozen and they give

00:22:30 ◼   ► you 15 because that's the New York dozen

00:22:33 ◼   ► I guess don't they just throw in no you

00:22:38 ◼   ► tell me what you want I mean if you just

00:22:39 ◼   ► I'm sure like you're bringing the bagels

00:22:45 ◼   ► to somebody and so you don't have

00:22:47 ◼   ► specific orders like oh yeah I was just

00:22:49 ◼   ► gonna say have you ever gotten bagels at

00:22:51 ◼   ► school of course not because your school

00:22:53 ◼   ► isn't Ohio so you didn't get bagels in

00:22:54 ◼   ► school but we had teachers bring us

00:22:56 ◼   ► bagels in school because my school was

00:22:58 ◼   ► amazing and movie school yeah we had our

00:23:05 ◼   ► robot to go to the bagel store and get

00:23:07 ◼   ► us bagels and then we swam the pool and

00:23:09 ◼   ► looked at stars in the planetarium so

00:23:11 ◼   ► after we did all that we had some bagels

00:23:13 ◼   ► none of those things were jokes yeah

00:23:16 ◼   ► it's a public school so like you if

00:23:21 ◼   ► you're freaking for a group of people

00:23:23 ◼   ► just breakfast occasionally bought

00:23:25 ◼   ► bagels like for the office to bring in

00:23:27 ◼   ► you don't know who's gonna like what so

00:23:29 ◼   ► you just go up to the guy and you're

00:23:30 ◼   ► like just give me a dozen of everything

00:23:33 ◼   ► like give me something of everything

00:23:34 ◼   ► I've never I've always specific made it

00:23:37 ◼   ► just cuz I'm me and I like to control

00:23:39 ◼   ► things but I've never specifically order

00:23:41 ◼   ► things like that and I would even argue

00:23:42 ◼   ► that if you're getting a sort of bagels

00:23:44 ◼   ► for an unknown audience or people with

00:23:47 ◼   ► unknown tastes I would argue that garlic

00:23:50 ◼   ► or onion and even poppy maybe would be

00:23:53 ◼   ► bad choices because not enough people

00:23:55 ◼   ► like that much of those things salt too

00:23:58 ◼   ► is risky my own that's my mom's favorite

00:24:00 ◼   ► bagel assault bagel your mom is the only

00:24:03 ◼   ► person I've ever met who eats salt

00:24:04 ◼   ► bagels including the time when I worked

00:24:06 ◼   ► at burgers and sold them every day no

00:24:08 ◼   ► I've never met anyone who really but she

00:24:10 ◼   ► loves him but she when she gets them she

00:24:13 ◼   ► takes some of the salt off the top

00:24:14 ◼   ► because it's too much because it's

00:24:16 ◼   ► literally like crusted with salt yeah

00:24:19 ◼   ► the salt bail is when I was recruiters

00:24:21 ◼   ► those were always the ones that you'd

00:24:23 ◼   ► have the most left at the end of the day

00:24:24 ◼   ► like every other flavor you know you'd

00:24:26 ◼   ► be baking them throughout the morning as

00:24:28 ◼   ► to run out of things the salt bagel

00:24:30 ◼   ► you'd only have to bake once and you'd

00:24:33 ◼   ► only you'd throw on like maybe six of

00:24:36 ◼   ► them for the whole day and there would

00:24:38 ◼   ► always be some left and I mean there's

00:24:40 ◼   ► no reason to even have them except that

00:24:41 ◼   ► like those like for people who would

00:24:44 ◼   ► come in during the day wanting a salt

00:24:45 ◼   ► bagel would you like if that's what you

00:24:48 ◼   ► want and you're out of that like there

00:24:50 ◼   ► is no substitute that is not salty the

00:24:52 ◼   ► everything comes a little bit of along

00:24:54 ◼   ► the way but it's no but then you have to

00:24:55 ◼   ► have all the other flavors too if you

00:24:57 ◼   ► don't want all that and you just want

00:24:58 ◼   ► like a very like if you like a lot of

00:25:00 ◼   ► salt like that's yeah it's it's

00:25:02 ◼   ► basically a pretzel at that point that's

00:25:04 ◼   ► right you're right that's exactly what

00:25:06 ◼   ► it is but it's it's salt people who

00:25:08 ◼   ► really like pretzels but it's even

00:25:10 ◼   ► saltier than most salty pretzels yeah

00:25:13 ◼   ► yeah as I said my mom she always thumbs

00:25:15 ◼   ► off half the salt right yeah yeah so

00:25:19 ◼   ► there she was one of those very few

00:25:21 ◼   ► people who eat salt bagels yep I always

00:25:22 ◼   ► got to get a salt bagel from one in the

00:25:24 ◼   ► dozen for my family so as your number

00:25:27 ◼   ► two my number two is also a kind of

00:25:30 ◼   ► vaguely defined flavor but it's a little

00:25:32 ◼   ► more narrow it is the the Rye family so

00:25:36 ◼   ► this includes rye pumpernickel and

00:25:38 ◼   ► marble which is right plus pumpernickel

00:25:40 ◼   ► is pumpernickel really is a rye weight

00:25:42 ◼   ► so your top four bagels are not for

00:25:43 ◼   ► bagels we're not doing top four families

00:25:46 ◼   ► of bagels

00:25:47 ◼   ► well it's pumpernickel is rye and

00:25:50 ◼   ► there's also some times where I with

00:25:52 ◼   ► seeds in it and there's also sometimes

00:25:53 ◼   ► marbled rye which is yeah so it's well

00:25:55 ◼   ► you got a pick one because it doesn't

00:25:56 ◼   ► matter when there's sometimes you got to

00:25:58 ◼   ► pick which one if you went to the most

00:26:00 ◼   ► beautiful perfect bagel place ever and

00:26:03 ◼   ► you and they have had everything that

00:26:06 ◼   ► you ever ever had and you you want to

00:26:09 ◼   ► try it or you want to taste so they have

00:26:11 ◼   ► a rye and the marble of rye and a

00:26:13 ◼   ► pumpernickel what would you pick that's

00:26:16 ◼   ► a really tough call I think I'd probably

00:26:18 ◼   ► go rye but I also use the bagel shop of

00:26:22 ◼   ► our mind

00:26:22 ◼   ► I wouldn't go marble because to me you

00:26:24 ◼   ► got to commit one or the other okay so

00:26:26 ◼   ► you got to take that off the list but

00:26:28 ◼   ► but if only one of these is available it

00:26:30 ◼   ► still gets that slot that's what I'm

00:26:32 ◼   ► saying okay all right and I like these

00:26:35 ◼   ► for the same reason I like the the wheat

00:26:37 ◼   ► with oats on the outside toasting it

00:26:39 ◼   ► with butter is just awesome like a nice

00:26:42 ◼   ► Rai family bagel toasted with butter

00:26:44 ◼   ► with or without the caraway seeds I

00:26:46 ◼   ► don't mind I don't mind them and that in

00:26:47 ◼   ► bread they don't belong there but in

00:26:49 ◼   ► vehicles I don't mind them that is a

00:26:51 ◼   ► fantastic combo just the you know like

00:26:53 ◼   ► the nice ride flavor with the butter all

00:26:56 ◼   ► through it and a nice crisp coating on

00:26:58 ◼   ► the outside that that is fantastic and

00:27:01 ◼   ► again hard to beat for for the butter

00:27:04 ◼   ► combo most of your bagels seem to be

00:27:06 ◼   ► preferable with butter well there's a

00:27:08 ◼   ► reason for that that I'll get to but so

00:27:11 ◼   ► yeah I mean so you know number four is

00:27:13 ◼   ► Asiago that's not a butter bingo that's

00:27:14 ◼   ► a sandwich bagel so I have a sandwich at

00:27:16 ◼   ► the bottom I know two are both kind of

00:27:18 ◼   ► butter only bagels like I wouldn't put a

00:27:19 ◼   ► sandwich on a rye or a wheat so what's

00:27:22 ◼   ► your number one my number one bagel is

00:27:25 ◼   ► the best universal bagel that is great

00:27:29 ◼   ► with cream cheese it's great with plain

00:27:33 ◼   ► cream cheese or flavored cream cheese of

00:27:35 ◼   ► pretty much any flavor it is wonderful

00:27:38 ◼   ► with sandwiches

00:27:39 ◼   ► it is wonderful with sandwich salads it

00:27:42 ◼   ► is just the best

00:27:44 ◼   ► it is fantastic toasted with butter it

00:27:46 ◼   ► is just the universally it's like it's

00:27:49 ◼   ► like the o-blood type of bagels right

00:27:52 ◼   ► it's not the no I well it's like

00:27:54 ◼   ► versatile receiver baby I think oh is

00:27:57 ◼   ► the donor I don't know anyway it's it's

00:27:59 ◼   ► the most universal blood bagel of bagels

00:28:03 ◼   ► I'm getting crazy here okay it's the egg

00:28:06 ◼   ► bagel the egg bagel is the best bagel it

00:28:09 ◼   ► has a flavor but yet it can carry all

00:28:12 ◼   ► other flavors it is just no don't listen

00:28:16 ◼   ► it is amazing

00:28:18 ◼   ► think of it it is it is just crisp and

00:28:20 ◼   ► it has its own like rich texture and

00:28:23 ◼   ► flavor that with just butter or it can

00:28:26 ◼   ► carry like a really sweet cream cheese

00:28:29 ◼   ► like strawberry cream cheese or it could

00:28:31 ◼   ► carry more of a savory cream cheese like

00:28:33 ◼   ► a scallion or vegetable Oh egg bagel

00:28:37 ◼   ► with vegetable cream cheese come on it's

00:28:40 ◼   ► amazing yeah and you could have it with

00:28:43 ◼   ► sandwiches it's so good with like turkey

00:28:45 ◼   ► and cheese I agree with most of what

00:28:49 ◼   ► you've said so it is my best most number

00:28:52 ◼   ► one for sure' top of the charts bagel

00:28:54 ◼   ► because it goes with

00:28:56 ◼   ► everything and I always feel like it

00:28:57 ◼   ► there is never anything that I would

00:28:59 ◼   ► feel like going on a bagel that wouldn't

00:29:01 ◼   ► be great with an egg bagel don't didn't

00:29:03 ◼   ► ah egg bagel see I wonder if the egg

00:29:07 ◼   ► bagel is really very similar to the

00:29:09 ◼   ► plain big don't say that oh no no I'm

00:29:12 ◼   ► not saying it's that's horrible just

00:29:14 ◼   ► take it back that in our kits very

00:29:16 ◼   ► similar the a bagel is not that much of

00:29:19 ◼   ► a departure from the plain bagel it's

00:29:20 ◼   ► really a very subtle difference it's not

00:29:22 ◼   ► very subtle it is bright yellow

00:29:24 ◼   ► first of all in color it's effective all

00:29:26 ◼   ► in flow

00:29:27 ◼   ► there's flavor if you bite into a plain

00:29:30 ◼   ► bagel you're just like bagel whatever

00:29:33 ◼   ► but if you bite into an egg bake oh you

00:29:36 ◼   ► were like wow this feels like a plane

00:29:38 ◼   ► because there's not a lot of you know

00:29:40 ◼   ► crazy texture going on there and that's

00:29:42 ◼   ► a reason why it's so universal because

00:29:43 ◼   ► it doesn't like distract from a whole

00:29:45 ◼   ► bunch of things but it has this great

00:29:48 ◼   ► rich flavor to it that you feel like

00:29:53 ◼   ► you're eating something and not just a

00:29:55 ◼   ► ring of dough like it's like an eggy

00:29:56 ◼   ► bread like it's like when you have a

00:29:59 ◼   ► slice of challah bread versus a slice of

00:30:01 ◼   ► you know like white Italian bread or

00:30:04 ◼   ► something you know the challah bread has

00:30:06 ◼   ► like something to it you got some like

00:30:07 ◼   ► mmm right like it's there I I loved

00:30:10 ◼   ► challah bread and I and I like egg

00:30:11 ◼   ► bagels like a mop-up some sauce it's

00:30:15 ◼   ► okay don't mean I agree with with how

00:30:18 ◼   ► much you like the a bagel but I think a

00:30:20 ◼   ► lot of that applies to the plane it's

00:30:23 ◼   ► the egg bagel is better for sure I'm not

00:30:25 ◼   ► gonna doubt that but I don't think the

00:30:27 ◼   ► difference between egg and plain is as

00:30:29 ◼   ► big as you the plain bagel cannot carry

00:30:31 ◼   ► butter the way an egg bagel can a plain

00:30:34 ◼   ► bagel cannot carry plain cream cheese

00:30:36 ◼   ► the way an egg bagel can no contest I

00:30:40 ◼   ► wonder I love to do it I'd be willing to

00:30:44 ◼   ► do a blind test with you to see if you

00:30:46 ◼   ► can actually I take that on against

00:30:50 ◼   ► plain blind

00:30:51 ◼   ► tomorrow morning let's go you mean we're

00:30:55 ◼   ► going Ardsley okay do it I wonder I mean

00:30:59 ◼   ► and I mean you try what happened when be

00:31:02 ◼   ► a little hard to control because like

00:31:04 ◼   ► the two bagels might might have been

00:31:05 ◼   ► like differently made or differently

00:31:07 ◼   ► we're going 6:00 in the morning I am

00:31:09 ◼   ► yeah well I'm saying we may have to do

00:31:11 ◼   ► multiple tests to really make it valid

00:31:13 ◼   ► hey when our friends didn't believe us

00:31:15 ◼   ► that we did not like that one bagel

00:31:17 ◼   ► place and thought that the bagel is that

00:31:18 ◼   ► we go to was superior and they tried to

00:31:20 ◼   ► bring over those bagels that time and

00:31:22 ◼   ► they tried to trick us and be like oh

00:31:24 ◼   ► here take this bagel

00:31:26 ◼   ► we knew the second that bagel came out

00:31:28 ◼   ► of the bag that that was from the bad

00:31:30 ◼   ► bagel place oh not the good bagel place

00:31:32 ◼   ► and they were very surprised by that and

00:31:34 ◼   ► said okay from now on when we get you

00:31:36 ◼   ► bagels we'll get it from the good place

00:31:37 ◼   ► because they're amazing friends but I

00:31:39 ◼   ► bet that I will be able to taste test

00:31:42 ◼   ► this no problem blind and I will be able

00:31:46 ◼   ► to tell the difference I think you

00:31:47 ◼   ► probably will be would you be doing it

00:31:49 ◼   ► plane like totally unadulterated with

00:31:51 ◼   ► anything or would we toast both of them

00:31:53 ◼   ► with butter or something on them see I

00:31:56 ◼   ► mean the more variables you put in the

00:31:58 ◼   ► harder it is to control but as long as I

00:32:00 ◼   ► have the same variables yeah I mean I

00:32:03 ◼   ► would say toast with butter would be a

00:32:05 ◼   ► good overall test cuz day and more

00:32:07 ◼   ► certain I will get it right right well

00:32:09 ◼   ► cuz but plane you play would actually be

00:32:11 ◼   ► easier because there be fewer like the

00:32:13 ◼   ► the salty fetters the butter is going to

00:32:15 ◼   ► actually distract you from the make

00:32:17 ◼   ► bagel I am ready okay and it's like my

00:32:21 ◼   ► superpower I think you probably will be

00:32:23 ◼   ► able to tell the difference but I I

00:32:24 ◼   ► really I'm hoping that you'll really be

00:32:26 ◼   ► honest but like how different is it

00:32:28 ◼   ► really and I want to I want to tell to

00:32:30 ◼   ► like you know how I have no promises

00:32:32 ◼   ► about being honest about how different

00:32:33 ◼   ► it is okay that's all right so I reserve

00:32:38 ◼   ► the right to exaggerate that's yeah

00:32:40 ◼   ► that's fine me too that that's us the

00:32:44 ◼   ► original preference is that strong all

00:32:47 ◼   ► right so overall I think I think that's

00:32:51 ◼   ► a solid pick I don't agree with it but I

00:32:53 ◼   ► do think the egg bagel is good and I see

00:32:56 ◼   ► I respect I respect that other choice

00:32:58 ◼   ► Thanks what's your number one bagel you

00:33:03 ◼   ► know everyone knows when everyone knows

00:33:05 ◼   ► my number one bagel is the everything

00:33:06 ◼   ► bagel you know for all the reasons you

00:33:08 ◼   ► said about both the reason you like

00:33:11 ◼   ► everything bagels and I should clarify

00:33:13 ◼   ► too because you didn't quite we didn't

00:33:15 ◼   ► quite say it yet and everything bagel

00:33:18 ◼   ► includes the following seeds only sesame

00:33:22 ◼   ► garlic poppy

00:33:23 ◼   ► onion and salt that's it no caraway

00:33:27 ◼   ► seeds no sunflower seeds no other seeds

00:33:30 ◼   ► go on and everything bagel sesame poppy

00:33:32 ◼   ► garlic onion salt and it has to have all

00:33:34 ◼   ► five of those if you omit the salt

00:33:35 ◼   ► that's a way we core bagel so the really

00:33:38 ◼   ► install the bring all go this is this is

00:33:40 ◼   ► new I know you are looking at me like of

00:33:42 ◼   ► course but you know I'm trying to

00:33:43 ◼   ► remember the George Carlin shower

00:33:45 ◼   ► routine oh that's a rbirtle crotch and

00:33:48 ◼   ► teeth thank you anyway

00:33:56 ◼   ► so everything bagel has to have those

00:33:58 ◼   ► things

00:33:58 ◼   ► ideally there there should be seeds on

00:34:01 ◼   ► both sides and the the the whatever the

00:34:04 ◼   ► bottom side of the bagel is doesn't need

00:34:06 ◼   ► to necessarily have as much seating as

00:34:09 ◼   ► the top half but there should be some

00:34:11 ◼   ► that have like fallen around the edges

00:34:12 ◼   ► and maybe maybe when they were flipped

00:34:14 ◼   ► maybe with it maybe some guy on the back

00:34:15 ◼   ► either way there should be some on both

00:34:17 ◼   ► sides so that when you if you slice the

00:34:19 ◼   ► bagel in the traditional way one side

00:34:22 ◼   ► isn't just totally blank right so you

00:34:24 ◼   ► can insert you can have it open face

00:34:25 ◼   ► without exact lain bagel exactly exactly

00:34:29 ◼   ► that's burnt exactly so that that is the

00:34:33 ◼   ► parameters with which I'm defining

00:34:35 ◼   ► everything bagels that being said one of

00:34:37 ◼   ► the reasons they're my number one is

00:34:39 ◼   ► because of their incredible versatility

00:34:40 ◼   ► you can get an everything bagel at a

00:34:44 ◼   ► place where the bagels aren't that great

00:34:45 ◼   ► and it's still pretty good any kind of

00:34:48 ◼   ► like diner or restaurant anything in

00:34:50 ◼   ► most of the country even if they offer

00:34:52 ◼   ► an everything bagel as an option to put

00:34:54 ◼   ► a sandwich on her as an option to have

00:34:55 ◼   ► toasted we know with butter or something

00:34:57 ◼   ► it's actually pretty passable most

00:34:59 ◼   ► places I forgot about the egg sandwich

00:35:01 ◼   ► right situation yeah everything's best

00:35:04 ◼   ► for egg sandwiches yeah so to me and

00:35:06 ◼   ► everything bagel is kind of the

00:35:08 ◼   ► universal bagel in that you can have it

00:35:10 ◼   ► everything you said about the egg bagel

00:35:12 ◼   ► I think about the everything bagel where

00:35:13 ◼   ► I think it works in every circumstance

00:35:16 ◼   ► whether you're toasting it with butter I

00:35:17 ◼   ► don't think it's too much oh I don't

00:35:18 ◼   ► like a test day with butter so it is it

00:35:20 ◼   ► is strong but I don't think it's too

00:35:21 ◼   ► much of whether you're toasting with

00:35:22 ◼   ► butter whether you're putting cream

00:35:24 ◼   ► cheese on it and I would say almost

00:35:25 ◼   ► strawberry cream cheese on an everything

00:35:27 ◼   ► bagel I don't like sweet cream cheeses

00:35:31 ◼   ► so it may be maybe for me that doesn't

00:35:33 ◼   ► matter but you know for me every other

00:35:35 ◼   ► kind of flavor whether your hat whether

00:35:37 ◼   ► it's

00:35:37 ◼   ► plain cream cheese or one of the

00:35:39 ◼   ► vegetable ones scallion anything like

00:35:41 ◼   ► that to me everything bagels carry

00:35:44 ◼   ► everything sandwiches

00:35:46 ◼   ► cream cheese butter toasted or not

00:35:48 ◼   ► toasted they are the universal bagel to

00:35:51 ◼   ► me where they make all those things good

00:35:54 ◼   ► not just not just decent but they make

00:35:56 ◼   ► all of them like great and the flavor I

00:35:58 ◼   ► just love the that flavor combo of the

00:36:00 ◼   ► of those five seeds well for C its plus

00:36:03 ◼   ► salt well two seats plus two or

00:36:05 ◼   ► anybody's matter the five things that go

00:36:08 ◼   ► on top of an everything baby to me that

00:36:11 ◼   ► there's it's very hard for me to go into

00:36:14 ◼   ► a bailer shop and order anything else

00:36:16 ◼   ► when that's an option you know I mean

00:36:18 ◼   ► and if I'm getting a toast with butter

00:36:19 ◼   ► it's it's easier for me to get something

00:36:22 ◼   ► else I guess but like if I'm if I'm in a

00:36:23 ◼   ► sandwich no contest if I'm in a bagel

00:36:25 ◼   ► sandwich for a bailer shop chicken salad

00:36:27 ◼   ► or meat or any you know we're like you

00:36:29 ◼   ► know turkey deli meat any of those

00:36:31 ◼   ► things eggs I'm putting all those on an

00:36:33 ◼   ► everything bagel if they're available as

00:36:35 ◼   ► long as they're not like totally old and

00:36:36 ◼   ► rock-hard which fortunately they hardly

00:36:38 ◼   ► ever are because they're so popular that

00:36:40 ◼   ► they're always baking them throughout

00:36:42 ◼   ► the day chances are everything bagels

00:36:44 ◼   ► your bigger risk wanting everything

00:36:46 ◼   ► bagel is that they'll be out of them

00:36:48 ◼   ► now that they'll be old once Dale would

00:36:49 ◼   ► you bring it on a plane no you would not

00:36:53 ◼   ► you would bring an egg baby on a plane

00:36:54 ◼   ► on a plane I would opt for a different

00:36:56 ◼   ► choice you're right just saying you're

00:36:58 ◼   ► right one step more universal to egg

00:37:00 ◼   ► bagel well so big baby bagel to your mom

00:37:03 ◼   ► who learns to eggs no so no well that's

00:37:06 ◼   ► a different story

00:37:07 ◼   ► well say okay if you're gonna if you

00:37:09 ◼   ► want the true universal bagel without

00:37:11 ◼   ► regard to how much you love it it's the

00:37:13 ◼   ► plain bagel because the plane bail

00:37:15 ◼   ► couldn't really go everywhere but you

00:37:17 ◼   ► know the plain bagel can't be given to

00:37:19 ◼   ► people that are allergic to wheat

00:37:20 ◼   ► neither can any of the bails the egg is

00:37:24 ◼   ► not going to help you there they don't

00:37:25 ◼   ► replace the flour with ace there's no

00:37:30 ◼   ► gluten free bagel I'm sure somebody has

00:37:33 ◼   ► made that somewhere that I label like

00:37:36 ◼   ► clay please don't make it illegal ah

00:37:39 ◼   ► it's bad enough that we made flat bagels

00:37:42 ◼   ► and then people call them that stupid

00:37:43 ◼   ► combo word flagel don't the words like I

00:37:45 ◼   ► can't sit I just can't can we talk about

00:37:48 ◼   ► weirdo bagels bialys the new crazy

00:37:51 ◼   ► rainbow bagel I mean come on go home

00:37:53 ◼   ► Bethel you're drunk like that's insane

00:37:54 ◼   ► that's crazy yeah I like I like a bialy

00:37:56 ◼   ► and again toasted with butter to me the

00:37:58 ◼   ► alleys are amazing especially what is

00:38:00 ◼   ► that in the middle onion it's kind of no

00:38:03 ◼   ► it's I think it's all onion and I think

00:38:04 ◼   ► I think the dough is even an onion IDO

00:38:06 ◼   ► it's like dough a little bit doughy in

00:38:07 ◼   ► the middle I don't know bialys are

00:38:09 ◼   ► really good and we always have a strange

00:38:11 ◼   ► property for us that that our favorite

00:38:14 ◼   ► bialys are just from our grocery store

00:38:18 ◼   ► bakery like thank you stop and shop yeah

00:38:21 ◼   ► like I don't know if stop and shop has

00:38:23 ◼   ► particularly amazing bakers and like

00:38:26 ◼   ► their bagels and their roles and

00:38:27 ◼   ► everything are all mediocre at best but

00:38:29 ◼   ► they're beyond these are really good

00:38:30 ◼   ► yeah and those rainbow bagels I mean

00:38:33 ◼   ► come on people don't you know you're

00:38:34 ◼   ► just eating like a gallon of food die

00:38:36 ◼   ► like yeah and it's just bagels it's a

00:38:39 ◼   ► plain bagel like swirled with they dial

00:38:42 ◼   ► the dough and then they swirl it all

00:38:44 ◼   ► together and then they bake it I'm like

00:38:46 ◼   ► people are around the lot like around

00:38:48 ◼   ► the block and Lions waiting for these

00:38:50 ◼   ► rainbow bagels with like yeah with with

00:38:53 ◼   ► cream cheese that's pretty much full of

00:38:55 ◼   ► sprinkles like with more dye like this

00:38:58 ◼   ► is that's just so weird your people

00:39:00 ◼   ► colors don't have flavors like they

00:39:01 ◼   ► don't taste like anything just get off

00:39:05 ◼   ► the line and go get an egg bagel

00:39:07 ◼   ► I'd go everything hi everyone the

00:39:14 ◼   ► morning after we recorded as we

00:39:15 ◼   ► threatened do during the show we

00:39:17 ◼   ► performed a blind taste test to see if

00:39:19 ◼   ► TIFF could reliably distinguish between

00:39:20 ◼   ► plain and egg bagels here's how that

00:39:22 ◼   ► went

00:39:23 ◼   ► first I gave her a piece of an egg bagel

00:39:26 ◼   ► this is not egg I mean youyou can just

00:39:32 ◼   ► take bites out of them you don't have to

00:39:34 ◼   ► actually eat them

00:39:38 ◼   ► next a plain bagel I think that one was

00:39:41 ◼   ► egg next another plain bagel let me see

00:39:46 ◼   ► that one see it let me taste the other

00:39:49 ◼   ► one what do you think this is a gig or

00:39:51 ◼   ► not I'm thinking not and it tastes bland

00:39:55 ◼   ► and horrible next another plain bagel

00:39:58 ◼   ► this is egg absolutely 100% I can feel

00:40:02 ◼   ► it in the texture so I'm really good

00:40:05 ◼   ► let every egg you raise the next one

00:40:09 ◼   ► Oh enjoy my egg bagel next an egg bagel

00:40:15 ◼   ► it's also eggs finally another egg bagel

00:40:19 ◼   ► this is not egg taste it's plain this
