A cinnamon raisin bagel is not a proper bagel.
It’s an abomiination a cookie.

With cream cheese, it’s good!
April 17, 2008 at 2:05 am
If frank says it’s a cookie, it’s a cookie!!!

Like chittlins, bagels are a food born of poverty. I am always leery of recipes presented by people who say, "This is what my people ate when we had nothing else to eat."
April 17, 2008 at 1:43 pm
Hey, did you eat my non-bagel?
April 17, 2008 at 3:38 pm
It may be a cookie, but it’s damn tastey all the same.
April 17, 2008 at 3:48 pm
Cream cheese does not go with cookies.
Cream cheese goes with lox, onions, and tomatoes.
And garlic bagels. Â Or onion bagels. Â Or sesame bagels. Â Or egg bagels. Â Or salt bagels. Â Or plain bagels.
Who would put cream cheese and lox on an Oreo, for heaven’s sake?
I rest my case.
(aside to Opie: Â All French sauces are based on poverty cooking. Â They came up with the sauces to hide the rotten meat.
I guess it’s no more steak au poivre for you.)

For those of us raised in Texas, just what is a ‘lox’? I’ve heard of it before.
Bagel sandwiches are good too.

Another reason to boycott France.

Google & Wikipedia are my friends. I don’t like salmon that much anyway, I don’t think I would ruin a bagel with a variation of it. Unless Chris would finish it, if I didn’t like it. He probably would, he’s not picky.

I had a cookie and coffee today at a job I was on, joe was working and I was runing my lips!!!
April 20, 2008 at 8:17 am
Why is it when I read that comment I picture Redd Foxx saying it, Chris?
April 21, 2008 at 12:59 am
Oh Opie. . .you got me, I never seen it coming!
