goodbye/fun facts....National Bagel Day...These rounds of dough can be found just about anywhere: breakfast joints, coffee shops, supermarkets...but that wasn't always the case. bagels have been traced to the Jewish families of Poland in the 1600s ...And, unlike many things created nearly five-hundred years ago, bagels are remarkably unchanged. Bagels made the jump to America with a massive Polish-Jewish immigration in the 1800s and while they were hugely popular in New York City...they didn’t make their way to the national scale until the mid 20th-century where automation and bread slicing made mass manufacturing much more efficient. bagels can be a bit awkward to slice. The best way is to lay the bagel flat and slice it horizontally with your dominant hand while holding it in place with your opposite hand. Keep your fingers and thumb out of the way.
