Sean...thanks to you, I've become a bageler, that is, researching the history, etc. of bagels. Old time buddy of mine been living in southern France for some years. I asked him, Sid Stein, where is the closest bagel source. He says 30 minutes to Einstein's. I look it up. Seems there almost 800 Einstein bagel outlets in the US, Canada, Europe, and more. Amazing. Also mentioned that Costco bagel source is/was Einstein. What do you think of that! If interested, I have an essay on Americanization of bagels. Just submitted for publication. NedPorges@comcast.net

That makes a lot of sense! (Einstein/Costco). I’m fascinated to hear more about the essay!

If they don't move those bagel baskets in another 6 months you're gonna need to start keeping a (Cold weather) and (Warm weather) rating for this location!
