A bagel...is a bagel is a bagel. To paraphrase Gertrude Stein...






Spike it with a bit of Philadelphia cream cheese!



Today, I strolled into Starbucks for a hot cup of Earl Grey tea and a toasted bagel, when I noticed something curious.

There was no ubiquitous opening in the center of the fresh breakfast snack.

During the baking process, I expect that the dough got a little too swollen - and thus - sealed the center up tight.

That caused me to wonder.

Is a bagel still a bagel if it has no hole?

Inquiring minds want to know!
