Asiago, Carolyn, in a dramatic change from my normal plaint, is too strong for me. That said, I quite happily condemn whole wheat bagels as well.
I do not use Dunkin' Donuts as a measure of bagel-ness; it does not exist in San Francisco. We have Noah's Bagels, which sells itself with much bad yiddish and black-and-white pictures of New York City, but they aren't boiled. Thus my ex and I used to call them "fakels".
I can't believe that the C-Shop makes asiago bagels, chocolate chip bagels, blueberry bagels, 'power' bagels, and honey whole wheat bagels, but discontinued poppyseed bagels. All in all, my position can be summed up by Calvin Trillin's line to his daughter: "No, I'm sure California is great-- I hear you can get a free wheat grass bagel with every fifth bee pollen bagel."
Yesterday, waiting in line, something like four out of five people ordered asiago bagels. This is strange.
lol what?! how can it be a bagel if it's not boiled? otherwise, it's just a circle of bread. i believe i may have to write a fatwa on this very topic...
