So Diesel no longer toasts bagels anymore :( and I'm just not crazy about untoasted bagels for some reason. Is there another place in the square (besides Dunkin Donuts) to get a bagel fix first thing in the morning?

This raises the much bigger question of why there are no real bagel bakeries in Somerville (or Cambridge, unless you count Brueggers). I would think there is a market for something that wasn't trucked in from out of town.

Please, someone, open a bagel shop! Maybe Lyndells could add them to their list of confections?

bagel shop! squirrelly wrath!

Thank you. That was fun. Creamy cheesy creamy creamy cheese.

not enough Jews on this side of the river?

I dunno, are there really not enough Jews to find one bagel cook? The goyim eat bagels too.

Exactly! We regularly bought bagels in the supermarket in the extremely WASPY small town I grew up in in Oregon.

And we toasted them. Maillard reaction FTW!

I'm not one, but I love bagels!

I would think Iggy's would count for Cambridge, at least technically.

They wouldn't toast them because they're a bakery, not a food-service establishment. But they should definitely count as a real bagel bakery in Cambridge.

I've baked my own bagels before. It's time-consuming and labor-intensive -- much more so than baking regular loaves of bread. Not that that's really an answer to your question, but it might be related in some way.
