There’s only one way to slice a bagel, right?
According to a recent tweet, people in St. Louis secretly slice their bagels like you would a loaf of bread.

How can this be? I mean they would still taste the same but can you fathom eating a bagel this way?
Panera bagels are in the photo and the company tweeted it isn't quite sure what to make of it, either.
Our team is divided over here. Do other people slice their bagel Bread Co style? https://t.co/NbdZjj6G6C

Not all reactions were bad.
Hey but as a diabetic I have been told to _never_ eat bagels but with a bread sliced one I could pick out a reasonable portion and keep my blood sugar down, And anyway I don't get why a big wodge of dough is so sacred!
