Bagel Blunder Leaves Crews Cleaning up Roadway
NBC2 ^ | Nov 23, 2010

A truck carrying bite-sized bagels accidentally dropped its load in the middle of SR-82 Monday night.

The cardboard box holding the pastries broke open when it hit the pavement, leaving several thousand mini bagels all over the road near the intersection of Sunshine Boulevard.

The Lee County Sheriff's Office asked the Lehigh Acres Fire Department to help clean up the mess.

Officials we spoke to say no one was hurt and traffic was not affected by the bagels.

Oooo! Bite size bagels! Mmm Mmm! Too bad these ones are all over the road

Once, when my dad was young, a twinkie truck crashed into a ditch and the contents of the truck were everywere (luckily they were in wrappers). Dad told us how he and his friends stuffed their pockets with ho-hos, twinkies and ding-dongs that day...

“The Lee County Sheriff’s Office asked the Lehigh Acres Fire Department to help clean up the mess.

Police immediately called several local restaurants for a tub of cream cheese and a vat of hot coffee.

If they hadn’t eaten them, they’d still be fresh today.

Pastries? They really shouldn't have a Gentile writing copy about bagels.
