Apparently People Slice Bagels Like Bread In St. Louis And Honestly?
Buzzfeed News ^ | March 27, 2019 | Julia Reinstein

You know, the Jewish American breakfast staple with a slice right down the middle, often topped with lox and cream cheese. Yum!

But wait...what is...THIS:

A style of slicing bagels as you would a loaf of bread — aka bread-sliced — has caused OUTRAGE among a lot of people this week. (Ok, so not real outrage, but, like, bread outrage.)

The drama all started when Alek Krautmann, a St. Louis native and employee of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, tweeted a photo Monday of a box of Panera bagels looking like they’d gone through a paper shredder.

“Today I introduced my coworkers to the St. Louis secret of ordering bagels bread sliced,” he tweeted. “It was a hit!”

I say BS.
Lived in St. Louis for 25 years and had Panera countless times and never saw this way of slicing a bagels before.
Seems like a prank or else a really dumb 0bammy type working behind the counter .
Either way it’s a nice break from listening to Comey lie on NBC to Lester Holt.

Ps Panera makes the best lunch. Half sandwich and soup with a slug of coffee for 5bucks.

I get it, but it’s not the same. Now it’s just bread. It’s like a muffin top. The top crust is typically the best part.
I might just open a store called “Top of the Bagel to You!”


“....who do you think you are giving the homeless stumps? What, your better than them? They are homeless so they don’t deserve the tops...?” classic Seinfeld.

It’s the smacking of the avocado pit on the knife edge that slices the hands.

There’s a coney joint in Detroit that slices like that. Now watch this caddie:

That should get this bagel slicing crowds dandier up...3,2,1...

I once had a pizza in Indiana that was sliced into small squares.


Imos pizza in St. Louis. “A square beyond compare “. Try the extra large hamburger bacon and onion. Real bacon strips woven like a mat. 30 bucks. Ask for extra crispy.

Yesterday I posted stats about the illegals just being released into Texas on a daily basis. In TX its about 5k per day being let loose. They even drove 1k to San Antonio to release them there because Grey hound won’t take them. God bless and don’t forget to have a bagel once in a wild.

++++++++

Drove 1k.

How were they transported? A greyhound has 55 seats.

Did they use something like that, school buses or something else?
