Oswaldo,
Over the years, I've learned many disturbing things about friends, acquaintances and even relatives (NB - WW II fucked up a lot of lives of even those who survived it, the reverberations of which are still being felt) but some transgressions just beggar all attempts at tolerance. Raisin "bagels" are one such instance...

It flatters me to elicit such sentiment from someone of such tender years, last seen posing on a rock. Tsk, you must not have read my postdoc thesis "Is Solipsism Tautological?" in which I make a hysterical defense of the cr bagel as the indexical trope of the post-postmodern condition. Or perhaps you read it but found it unconvincing. Yes, most likely the latter.

I don't know about all that, but I do have some fond memories of cinnamon raisin bagels during my college years.

There was a bakery that would sell you bagels in the wee hours when they were baking them, hot out of the oven. When the bars closed at 2 am, they were making sesame bagels. 3am, poppy seed. 4am was everything bagels. The cinnamon raisins came out at 5am, so if you were still up partying and made it in for the cinnamon raisin bagels, it was usually a pretty good night.

Are any of you nouveau bagel-meisters Jewish?

The local Lubavitchers always ask this in the form, "You Zhoosh?"

(I always reply, "No, you?")

I can't at all fathom putting smoked fish on a salt bagel. Sounds like a dreadful clash of flavors.

Sesame or poppy seed for this child of native New Yorkers (Dad grew up in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn and Mom on the Upper West Side).
 
I used to make my own bagels when I was in college, or more when home for summers. But there were really none to be had otherwise.

Ah, but I mentioned that that photo was from last summer. I've done a lot of growing up since then.
