| New York Bakery Bagels - any other fans? 13:55 - Nov 12 with 705 views | giant_stow | I live on these things as they keep well, but since the fckers put the pre-cut in them, they've gone to sh1t. They used to be moist and fresh, but now they're all dry and crap. boo. (thanks for reading). |  |

| New York Bakery Bagels - any other fans? on 14:07 - Nov 12 | C_HealyIsAPleasure | I’m going to show how much I love them by revealing I haven’t bought any in a while - since when have they been pre-cut?? Trying to slice perfectly and inevitably ending up with a wonky bagel with one half significantly more toasted than the other is half the fun |  |

| New York Bakery Bagels - any other fans? on 14:11 - Nov 12 | leitrimblue | I find the bagel, much like the ciabatta to be incredibly overrated. Give me sliced, heavily processed white sandwich bread any day. Think the best way to test if you've made the correct bagel/ciabatta/ bread choice is to heavily butter the item and then add freshly fried bacon. It should turn into a semi gooey, buttery, ketchup mess once you apply a small bit of pressure. If it stays firm you've made the wrong choice ( thanks for reading ) |  | |  |

They've been pre-cut for what? A couple of months? I'd rather the home-done wonky cut - the quality has nose-dived - they're now no better than Lidl etc... |  |

| New York Bakery Bagels - any other fans? on 14:16 - Nov 12 by giant_stow | My pleasure! I get you and have nothing against sliced white, but bacon works in Bagels too (although I'm not sure I should be doing that!). Not sure I can handle the goo though - a bagel with bacon,. butter + sauce holds its shape long enough for me to eat it (in roughly 6 mouthfuls). Edit: using a whole packet of bacon naturally.

Bacon in a bagel just sounds wrong man. I just find both the bagel and the ciabatta a tad thick and dry. Though I am a heathen |  | |  |

Yeah, I know you mean - I feel like I'm breaking some rule on the bacon, but fck it. You are right about the dryness - that's why the New York ones used to be so good. heartbreaking. |  |

Nah. A perfectly toasted bagel is a wonderful thing. |  | |  |

wash your mouth out! Bread rolls go stale too fast - maybe a day or two if you're lucky. Bagels last all week, so neah. |  |

Lightly toasted is the way to go, unless it is very fresh. |  |

| New York Bakery Bagels - any other fans? on 15:50 - Nov 12 | Sarge | The best supermarket bagels definitely, particularly now they’ve got an Everything bagel. They don’t bear much resemblance to a bagel you’d actually get from a bakery in New York but they’ll do. I don’t like the pre-slicing either, mostly because they don’t slice all the way though so it’s pointless anyway. |  | |  |

Yes! The pre-cut isn't the whole way through so if you rely on it, you rip it and can't toast it. |  |

I guess that's the benefit of stuffing the product full of preservatives. |  |
