Reply to comment by lemon_difficult90 in Cupertino's has the best bagels by STREAMOFCONSCIOUSN3S

If I’m eating a bagel in the morning, there isn’t a reason for it to not be freshly made. In my experience baking, bagels and other bread don’t have noticeable textural changes until they’ve been out for 5hrs. Nate’s does not toast any of their bagels, which makes it super obvious when they’re not fresh and sometimes I would suspect, from the day before. The last bakery I worked at had a man who would come in and ask us to microwave his croissant. A toasted bagel could never offend me after having to frequently torture a baked good in such a vile way.

A microwaved croissant? Holy smokes. That actually is a slight. Like, an affront to butter itself.

He might as well have been asking me to microwave one of my children, all the labor and love that goes into making a traditional croissant :(

He was probably sad our French pastries didn’t taste enough like a croissan'wich from Burger King
