Reply to comment by BrandonC41 in Favorite RI bagels? by fill-in-theblank

At a minimum it’s because bagels aren’t supposed to be squishy like a roll. Both rebelle and PVD err on the side of soft, entirely wrong texture for a genuine bagel that’s why.

Rebelle bagels are not squishy at all. Have you even tried them? If anything the complaints are that they are hard and chewy. Which is how bagels are supposed to be anyway.

Yes I have and no the texture is wrong. Same thing with PVd bagels / my bagel should taste like a bagel not a roll. It was bad every time I went so I stopped going @rebelle. Maybe they’ve started to err in the wrong direction (like seven stars does with their brittle croissants) - either way that’s not a bagel. BG is spot on.

(Also - “have you even tried them”? No I just sit on Reddit and make up replies. What kind of a rebuttal is that?)

Fun exercise: Take a look at that account's comment history and tell me whether you think it's the owner of Rebelle or not.

Does she pay you in bagels and wine?

That sounds pretty good actually! I bet she has good taste in wine if the food is any indication 😂

Now I’m wondering if you’re stalking me on Reddit??
