We’re at it again- this time it’s a bagel dividing the internet. Or at least how you divide a bagel
It all started with this tweet
Today I introduced my coworkers to the St Louis secret of ordering bagels bread sliced. It was a hit! pic.twitter.com/XNGbljtpYz

I work in a bakery that makes bread & bagels every morning…. If someone asked me to “bread slice” bagels I’d refuse service. I have standards and a healthy respect for bagels.

and some valid points
if you’re ordering bagels for coworkers, please, god just let them have an entire bagel

brands like Panera have even chimed in
Hey Alek, next time bagels are on us, sliced however you’d like. 😉 Can you DM us?

but some agree with his method
Sliced bagels=more cream cheese. This is empirically a win

We tried and I have to say- I’m team bread sliced bagel now!
