slo’s TUESDAY 10/7 poll - Bagels For Breakfast 🥯

[slo]

Bagels are so good, they really are. They can be eaten any time of the day, but today we’re going to focus on eating them for breakfast. In the morning, many people will toast a bagel and put a topping on it. Others will make or buy a bagel breakfast sandwich that normally has an egg, cheese and sometimes a meat. However you have bagels in the morning it’s good, but not all people eat them, because they are sadly high in carbs. At one time, we had soooo…..many bagel places by me and they were always jammed with people (this was back in the late 90s and early 2000s), now there’s only one and it just opened earlier this year. I don’t see a lot of cars by it, which is kinda sad. It seems like people are just not that excited about bagels anymore. Are you one of them? Let’s find out….


Do you eat bagels for breakfast?
If yes……do you put something on them or have them as a breakfast sandwich?
(multiple choice)

*I only have 10 poll choices, so I didn’t put every possible choice. Please post your answer if you put something on your bagel that is not listed - thanks!


For Me……I do enjoy a good bagel, but I don’t eat them due to the carbs. Back when I did eat them, I’d toast them and put regular or strawberry cream cheese on them. I’m not a big fan of bagel sandwiches, so I very rarely had those. I’d much rather have a breakfast sandwich made with English Muffins.

I love good bagels but rarely eat them since having bariatric surgery. I can't quite finish 1/4 of a bagel, so unless I'm sharing it with someone, I don't order them. Sometimes at home I'll have a piece of a bagel. My favorite cream cheese is green olive, my favorite bagel is either everything or an onion bialy.

I love bagels and cream cheese but don't eat them much anymore.

Love bagels eat them all the time breakfast or dinner I should probably worry about the carbs but I just don’t

I love a good bagel also, but they are calorie bombs for me for breakfast, plus fairly refined for the most part. For my everyday eating, I don't do stuff like that. About once a year I might treat myself.

We enjoy bagels for breakfast. We’ll have them a few times a month. I do like lox, but don’t have it every time. Cream cheese, plain or vegetable is what I use. With lox I would also put on capers, lettuce and tomato, and I would have sliced onions for my sister. DH only uses cream cheese.

I like plain, poppyseed, sesame seed and pumpernickel. DH likes everything, Black Russian everything, or onion, and DSis likes Black Russian everything.

I will sometimes get a bagel breakfast sandwich out. I prefer one on an English Muffin, and those I make at home.

I’m not really a breakfast person so that would be a NO to bagels in the morning. When I do buy them it’s more of a lunch item and I love cream cheese and ham on a raisin bagel.

It's a bit of a drive to Marie's dentist, so I drive her there. While I wait, I go park by a bagel joint, Einstein Bagels. I'll usually get a sesame seed bagel, toasted, with cream cheese and a large decaf coffee. Maybe 3 times a year. And it would be mornings, so yes, breakfast hours. I kind of look forward to Marie's dentist appointments ha.

Love bagels but no longer eat them as I eat low net carb. I did see keto bagels but I try to avoid processed foods.
