Florida doesn't know what a bagel IS.
There is nothing even roughly the
equivalent of a bagel from up north.
Yes I am a Yankee and when it comes
to bagels ... who else would know
what that is? I remember a part
of Pittsburgh PA called Squirrel
Hill - they had a place called Bagel
World..... every kind of bagel known
to man...right there. If only you
could get them shipped to you in
12 hours or less...they get stale so
fast. And GOOD cream cheese - is
so way way better than any butter,
I don't care how rich your cow is,
cream cheese is the tops!!
Lox, now that is another topic
altogether.
