Bagels adopted as their own by our American brethren, not known for their capacity for complicated spelling (whaddaya mean it's e before i???) It turns out that I am a bad racialist.

Who sells the best Bagel in East Dulwich?

Starbucks do a lovely one, I've heard.

Bagels always feel a bit stiff of texture, and slightly stale somehow.

Lidl: a bag of four mixed bagels (cinnamon and something else I can't remember) for 79p. No idea what they're like, though.
