  lol while stationed in Germany I lived right across the street from a bakery, so nothing like fresh bread and a lot of fresh butter melted on it and eat the whole thing.......no wonder I am getting as large as GB........

Lox is... brined salmon... Honestly, I acquired the taste for kippers, smoked herring - ANY smoked fish, etc living in the UK!!  So lox and cream cheese on a bagel works for me... though I will admit to eating bagels very rarely! Now smoked fish... well I love that stuff!

I really have no idea what a lox is but I don't think anything can really do more than mask the texture of a bagel..It is a bit like someone tried to make bread but forgot to put yeast in it or didn't let it rise enough before baking..

Now a nice fresh crusty roll spread with thick butter and lean ham hot and fresh from the oven..followed by a lemon danish with clotted cream...

No,no,no...no wonder you didn't like it. Bagels are a foundation for Lox and cream cheese...and a thick slice of raw onion. Thin sliced Smoked salmon, cream cheese, bermuda onion, all on a sliced bagel....I'm getting HUNGRY!!!!.

Well it has taken me over 69 years to try a bagel..the reasons..

I have seen them at supermarkets and motorway service station cafes but there has always been someting I liked for the same price, and although I love sweet donuts bagels have all the promise of a donut but none of the sweet taste..as far as I knew they were just a funny shaped bread roll..

So today I bought a packet from the supermarket to try..

They felt a bit to dense so I thought they could do with a lift, I preheated my oven then sprinkled them with water and put them in the hot oven for a few minutes, after that they seemed a little better so I sliced one in half and spread thick British butter on both halves followed my thick strong cheddar cheese spread..

I feel that in an emergency I could eat another one, the butter and cheese spread were quite nice but the bagel was nothing like a nice crusty white roll..

I can cross bagels off my bucket list and maybe in another 69 plus years I will be ready for my second one..

In the meantime, until they reduce the sugar content for the good of my health, I'll stick to donuts.

John.
