		<description>=(  I am DYING for a good bagel now!  Why must you torture me so??  

I had no idea what a &quot;good bagel&quot; was until about 2 years ago when I started dating my bf and his father, who works in NYC, would give us bagels each time we visited.  I soooo disagree about toasting ruining a fresh bagel.  Bagels are best fresh AND toasted.  That way they are crunchy and chewy and oooooh sooooo good.  mmmmmm....  I stick to cream cheese (preferably whipped) and sometimes add a little butter as well.. that started bc I was so indecisive that I would put butter on 1/2 and cream cheese on the other half.  I put the 2 halves together to carry it with me and discovered something magical!</description>

		<description>Spread with cream cheese (and maybe sliced cheddar too) and broiled until bubbly and golden brown! 
Cream cheese &amp; fruit spread.
Egg, cheese, spinach, &amp; tomato sandwich. Pizza bagel.
Peanut butter topped.</description>

		<description>I like mine toasted with peanut butter, it gets all melty gooey...mmm.

I also like to toast them, spritz them with olive oil and heavily salt them - kinda like a pretzel when I can&#039;t get a pretzel.


reCap: pre-shockers... hmm</description>

		<description>I know it&#039;s off topic but since it was mentioned... is Lee Lee Sobieski a descendant of King Jan? 

Perhaps someone can write an article on celebrities with royal/noble connections?</description>

		<description>Since airlines stopped serving food, I never get on a plane without a bagel an a shmear. It&#039;s perfect, as it doesn&#039;t crunch, doesn&#039;t crumb, it&#039;s filling, cheap, and isn&#039;t stinky (nothing but consideration for my fellow inmates- er, fliers).

At home, I&#039;ll occaisionally to toast a bagel, and then put butter AND cream cheese, but I wouldn&#039;t admit to that in public.</description>

		<description>Red onion and tomatoes on a plain bagel. But the bagel must be fresh (no grocery store shelf breads, thank you) and the tomatoes must be home-grown (which somewhat limits the time frame in which I can have this most perfect of meals, since the Chicago growing season is about two weeks long...)</description>
